A longitudinal study for 14 early-stage malignant pulmonary and mediastinal disease patients after surgery was conducted to confirm the relationships between physical activity and psychological adjustment and quality of life. The result indicated 70% recovery of total physical activity after 6 month from the surgery. The participants with greater physical activity had less anxiety and depression. To development the scale for measurement of cancer-related worry of the breast cancer patients, a cross-sectional study was conducted for 112 breast cancer patients. The study revealed that the worry of breast cancer patients were consisted of three factors : future prospects ; physical and symptomatic problems ; social and interpersonal problems.
