Abstract: Objective: Positive psychological outcomes among adolescent and young adult survivors of childhood cancer may influence long-term health status. We examined posttraumatic growth (PTG) and Life satisfaction (LS) in adolescence, and their impact on future emotional and physical health status in young adulthood.Methods: Survivors (n = 2802) from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study were longitudinally analyzed across social, emotional, and physical factors during adolescence (12-17 years old), and PTG (PTG-Inventory) and LS (Cantril-Ladder-of-Life) during young adulthood (19-24 years old). The impact of PTG and LS on survivors' future long-term mental health, physical health, and social skills was also examined (23-28 years old) using Structural Equation Modeling.Results: Survivors reported high levels of LS (M = 7.43, range 1 to 10) and a positive impact from their cancer experience (M = 48.78, range 0 to 105). Adolescent predictors of higher PTG included older age at diagnosis (p = 0.001), experiencing more severe chronic health conditions (p = 0.01), cancer recurrence/relapse (p = 0.01), and being diagnosed with a non-CNS cancer (p = 0.001). Higher perceived general health (p = 0.01), higher social skills (p = 0.001), and diagnosis with a non-CNS cancer (p = 0.02) were associated with higher LS. Higher PTG during young adulthood predicted poorer perceived health (p = 0.04) and worse emotional health (p = 0.001) in later adulthood. Higher LS predicted better emotional health (p = 0.001) and better perceived health (p = 0.001).Conclusions: While LS was found to help survivors have better perceived long-term emotional and physical health outcomes, survivors with higher PTG fond both positive and negative impacts from cancer. Future therapeutic trials to improve LS should be considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
