“…암 환자의 인지손상이 경미하더라도 그대로 방치되면 일상생활과 직무 수행에 어려움을 초래하여 삶의 질에 부정적인 영향을 준다 [5]. 항 암화학요법 관련 인지기능의 변화는 인지손상(cognitive impairment), 인지기능 감퇴(cognitive decline), 신경행동장애(neurobehavioral disorders), chemobrain, chemofog와 같은 다양한 용어로 표현된다 [6].…”

The Effect of Chemotherapy on Cognition in Patients Treated for Colorectal Cancer

“…This is an important finding in informing the literature. Past studies have called for research to be conducted into the relationship between everyday problem solving abilities and cognitive functioning in cancer patients (Hutchinson et al, 2012). This study has shown that neuropsychological tests are good predictors of the problems participants come across in their everyday lives and there are moderate to strong relationships between these two variables.…”

“…Consequently, Hutchinson, Hosking, Kichenadasse, Mattiske and Wilson (2012) have called for the inclusion of a test that assesses everyday problem solving when evaluating the utility of neuropsychological assessment for measuring CRCI. In order to build upon the findings of existing studies, the present study will address this concern by including the Everyday Problems Test (EPT) -a measure of problem solving abilities in situations regularly encountered in everyday lives.…”

Quality of survival and cognitive performance in children treated for medulloblastoma in the PNET 4 randomized controlled trial

“…Personality and emotional factors, which tend to relate poorly with direct assessments of cognitive difficulties, have been shown to influence symptom reporting [26][27][28]52,53 . Such respondent-related factors might underlie the robust associations observed among the questionnairebased measures of QoS, when questionnaires are completed by the same respondent or even different respondents that share the same context (e.g.…”

“…Associations of questionnairebased reports with direct assessments generally tend to be absent or weak [19][20][21][22] .Furthermore, the associations between assessments of the same cognitive functions with standardized tests and with self-or parent/caregiver-questionnaires, are generally absent, weak or moderate 9,[21][22][23][24] . For example, a divergence between direct assessment and questionnaire-based scores of executive function has been consistently observed in patients with traumatic brain injury 25 and cancer [26][27][28] . Previous reports have nevertheless highlighted the usefulness of questionnaire-based assessments in the screening of cognitive deficits in survivors of childhood brain tumors 29 .…”
