Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, and its survivors face problems such as anxiety, depression, and negative body image. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between childhood trauma and body image in mastectomized women and the mediating role of emotion regulation.
Methods: The present research method was descriptive-correlational research, structural equations. The research sample consisted of 250 women who underwent mastectomy surgery in 1401-1403 and were selected through purposive sampling from the chemotherapy and radiotherapy unit of Mahdieh MRI Center, and the surgery and oncology department of Besat Hospital, Hamadan. The data collection tools included the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (Bernstein, 1988), Body Image (Hopford et al., 2001), and Emotion Regulation (Gross and John, 2003). Data analysis was performed descriptively and inferentially using SPSS-22 and Amous-22 software.
Findings: The results showed that there was a significant relationship between childhood trauma and body image, as well as between emotion regulation and body image (P<0.01). Childhood trauma had a direct negative effect on emotion regulation (P<0.01, T=-5.302, β=-0.42) and body image (P<0.05, T=2.453, β=0.289). Also, emotion regulation directly affected body image (P<0.01, T=-3.13, β=0.524). The mediating role of emotion regulation was also confirmed in this relationship (P<0.01). The model fit indices indicated a good fit of the proposed model with the data. Conclusion: Childhood trauma can weaken the body image of mastectomized women, and emotion regulation plays a key role in this process. Strengthening emotion regulation can help improve body image and quality of life in these patients.
