Test-Retest Reliability Of The Short-Form Survivor Unmet Needs Survey, Karen Taylor, Max Bulsara, Leanne Monterosso

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

Objective: Reliable and valid needs assessment measures are important assessment tools in cancer survivorship care. A new 30-item short-form version of the Survivor Unmet Needs Survey (SF-SUNS) was developed and validated with cancer survivors, including hematology cancer survivors; however, test-retest reliability has not been established. The objective of this study was to assess the test-retest reliability of the SF-SUNS with a cohort of lymphoma survivors (n = 40).

Methods: Test-retest reliability of the SF-SUNS was conducted at two time points: baseline (time 1) and 5 days later (time 2). Test-retest data were collected from lymphoma cancer survivors (n …

A new 30‑item short‑form version of the Survivor Unmet Needs Survey (SF‑SUNS) was developed and validated with cancer survivors, including hematology cancer survivors; however, test–retest reliability has not been established. The objective of this study was to assess the test–retest reliability of the SF‑SUNS with a cohort of lymphoma survivors (n = 40).

Methods: Test–retest reliability of the SF‑SUNS was conducted at two time points: baseline (time 1) and 5 days later (time 2). Test–retest data were collected from lymphoma cancer survivors (n …
