Journal of psychosomatic research, 1992•Elsevier
This study examined the relationship between social relationships and social support and
survival following a first diagnosis of breast, colorectal, or lung cancer. Findings showed
different factors related to survival for those with breast vs lung or colorectal cancer and for
those with localized vs non-localized cancers. Results provide important evidence that
social relations and social support may operate differently depending on cancer site and
extent of disease.

Abstract
This study examined the relationship between social relationships and social support and survival following a first diagnosis of breast, colorectal, or lung cancer. Findings showed different factors related to survival for those with breast vs lung or colorectal cancer and for those with localized vs non-localized cancers. Results provide important evidence that social relations and social support may operate differently depending on cancer site and extent of disease.
