Effectiveness of Positive Psychology Interventions for Cancer Survivors: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
PPIs hold promise as an integrative approach to psycho-oncology care in enhancing psychological wellbeing among cancer survivors. While their effects on psychological distress and specific concerns like sexual dysfunction warrant further research, PPIs represent a valuable framework for supporting the multifaceted needs of cancer survivors. Standardization of interventions and integration into multidisciplinary care models are recommended to maximize their clinical utility.
