About this study

In plain language

This study tests whether a 14-day daily diary on a mobile device works well for breast cancer survivors from different racial groups. It also checks how well daily measures of stress and thinking skills work. The study is for 30 survivors age 40 or older, diagnosed at least 5 years ago, who are patients at the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center.

The primary goal of this project is to evaluate the feasibility of a 14-day mobile daily diary study among racially diverse breast cancer survivors. Further, the investigators will examine the validity and reliability of the daily stress and daily cognitive performance measures among breast cancer survivors. This pilot project will recruit 30 racially diverse breast cancer survivors (Asian, Black, Latina, and white; ages 40 and older; at least five years post-diagnosis) who are patients at the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center. The daily diary survey questions will be available in English, Spanish, and Chinese to accommodate the preferred language of the target participants.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
