The moderating role of parental cognitive perceptions in the link between children’s cancer predisposition genetic testing results and parent psychological adjustment
Cognitions such as intolerance of uncertainty and psychological symptom attribution may contribute to distress among parents of children with P/LP results. Therefore, cognitive interventions (e.g., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) may help parents manage distress regarding their child's genetic cancer risk.
