Toward a Typology of Patients With Head and Neck Cancer: Biopsychosocial Profiles Predicting Longitudinal Quality of Life

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quality of life (QoL) in head and neck cancer (HNC) is influenced by complex biopsychosocial factors, yet few longitudinal studies have examined these relationships immediately post‐treatment. Methods In this prospective study, 232 patients newly diagnosed with primary HNC completed psychometric assessments, clinical interviews, and
