Psychological distress in prostate cancer
The K10 is valid and reliable for this population, demonstrating excellent internal consistency; however, lower cutoffs (K10≥16.5, K10≥17.5) may reduce sensitivity. The standard K10≥20 threshold remains preferable for detecting distress and evaluating intervention effects in men with PCa.
