| dc.description.abstract | The study analyzed retrospective data of a Midwest LIVESTRONG® cancer survivorship program to better understand if it was meeting its goals, as well as provide information for future program modifications. The study analyzed both pre and post program participant data from the sample of 332 cancer survivors. The study focused on measures of quality of life as well as physical functional assessments to measure these goals. Of the 18 dependent variables analyzed, 11 ( 61.1 % ) revealed a statistically significant decrease between pre and posttest measures. These results can be utilized to inform recommendations for future cancer survivorship programming. | en |
