| Abstract: | There is a need to make empirically validated psychooncology interventions less costly to deliver, and more acceptable and routinely accessible to large numbers of patients. We developed 'CanCOPE: TWO', a self-directed version of our successful CanCOPE coping training program. CanCOPE: TWO combines psycho-educational instructional videos, guided reading materials, and a telephone based education service. It aims to enhance the quality of mutual support provided between the woman and her spouse so that they can share the burden of their cancer experiences, and navigate the key challenges in their journey together. The goal is to promote effective conjoint coping, and prevent long-term adjustment problems. We conducted a randomised trial of CanCOPE: TWO, with 60 women with cancer and their closest support person (usually a spouse). Participants were assessed three times: after women were diagnosed but prior to their surgery, after the psychological intervention (which was 6-weeks post-surgery), and at 6-month followup. The key finding was that CanCOPE: TWO improved adjustment in women relative to a medical information control condition, and that a flexible delivery program can be a cost effective means of providing psychological education, coping training and support.
