Abstract (English): Objective: The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of sex and colostomy variables on symptoms of anxiety and depression in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and their couples. Method: The sample consisted of patients with CRC (n = 95) and their respective couples (n = 95). The severity of anxietydepressive symptomatology and the presence of a colostomy were assessed. Results: The severity of anxiety symptoms increased significantly (p < .0001; d = .82) in the couples group compared to patients. Regarding gender, anxiety (p < .0001; η²p = .28) and depression (p = .02; η²p = .05) were significantly increased in female couples of men with CRC. Similarly, in terms of colostomy status, the severity of anxiety increased in the group of couples with colostomized CRC patients (p = .02; η²p = .02). Conclusions: This study suggests that gender and colostomy status have a strong impact on anxiety and depression symptoms in couples of patients with CRC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Objetivo: Examinar el efecto de las variables sexo y colostomía en los síntomas de ansiedad y depresión en pacientes con cáncer colorrectal (CCR) y sus parejas. Método: La muestra estuvo compuesta por pacientes con CCR (n = 95) y sus respectivas parejas (n = 95). Se evaluó la gravedad de la sintomatología ansiosodepresiva y la presencia de colostomía. Resultados: La gravedad de los síntomas de ansiedad aumentó significativamente (p < .0001; d = .82) en el grupo de parejas en comparación con el grupo de pacientes. Referente al sexo, aumentó significativamente la ansiedad (p < .0001; η²p = .28) y depresión (p = .02; η²p = .05) en las parejas mujeres de hombres con CCR. Asimismo, en cuanto a la condición de colostomía, la gravedad de la ansiedad aumentó en el grupo de parejas de pacientes con CCR con colostomía (p = .02; η²p = .02). Conclusiones: Este estudio sugiere que el sexo y la condición de colostomía tienen un fuerte impacto sobre los síntomas de ansiedad y depresión en parejas de pacientes con CCR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
