Abstract

Breast cancer profoundly affects patients’ quality of life (QoL), yet the relative impact of illness perception compared to demographic factors remains underexplored. This study sought to identify key determinants of QoL using a comprehensive multivariate approach, aiming to examine how illness perception influences the QoL of patients with breast cancer in Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 167 patients with breast cancer from the hospital's cancer unit who were selected by purposive sampling. Demographic data, illness perception, and QoL were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Measurement models assessed reliability (Cronbach's α, CR) and validity (AVE), while structural models evaluated path coefficients (β) and predictive power (R²) using SmartPLS 4.0. Research results showed illness perception emerged as a strong predictor of QoL (β = -0.558, p < 0.001; R² = 0.360), with emotional response (loading = 0.796) and perceived consequences (loading = 0.727) identified as key dimensions. Demographic variables showed negligible influence (R² = 0.0003). Reliability was acceptable for illness perception (α = 0.699, CR = 0.794) but poor for demographic factors (α = 0.248). Model fit indices suggested moderate adequacy (SRMR = 0.104, NFI = 0.515). Illness perception, especially emotional response and perceived consequences, strongly determines QoL. Psychological interventions, education, and emotional support should be prioritized over demographic factors in breast cancer care.

Abstract

Palliative care plays a crucial role in supporting individuals with chronic and life-limiting illnesses, yet awareness remains limited, especially in resource-constrained areas like Sucinaraja, Garut Regency. This community service initiative sought to increase understanding of palliative care among members of the Muhammadiyah community through a two-day educational seminar. The program covered prevalent chronic diseases, core principles of palliative care, and identification of patients needing such services. A total of 54 participants attended, engaging in interactive lectures and practical exercises. Knowledge and awareness were assessed using pre- and post-test. Results revealed substantial improvement: post-test accuracy surpassed 80% across all knowledge items, while participants’ awareness significantly increased, with most expressing strong agreement on the importance and community relevance of palliative care. Furthermore, there was notable family support for the integration of palliative care services. This program underscores the value of culturally tailored, community-based health education and the strategic role of religious organizations in promoting public health. Future programs should explore broader outreach and evaluate long-term behavioral impacts
