SU M M A RYAnxiety, depression and fear in general are the most common emotional problems in people with cancer and it is necessary to recognize them. The patients' attitude towards the side effects of chemotherapy has changed significantly in recent years and psychological effects, rather than physiological ones, are becoming increasingly important.The aim of this study was to develop and validate a reliable questionnaire that can measure cancer patients' fear of the chemotherapy side effects (CheSeFS).A CheSeFS is a unique, reliable and valid two-factor 14-item instrument, a clinically useful tool to assess fear of the chemotherapy side effects in cancer patients.
