Abstract
To identify childhood cancer patients and their families at the greatest risk for psychosocial difficulties, this study examined the predictive validity of the Psychosocial Assessment Tool 2.0 (PAT2.0) on caregiver and patient-reported mental health outcomes at 1-year follow-up. The PAT2.0 was administered to caregivers a median of 0.08 years after cancer diagnosis. A brief psychosocial screening battery (Family Symptom Inventory and PROMIS v1.0 Pediatric Profile-25) was administered to patient-caregiver dyads (n=53) ∼1-year later. Linear regressions support the longitudinal predictive validity of the PAT2.0 for caregiver-reported child and caregiver mental health symptoms and child-reported peer relationships difficulties.
