Zusammenfassung

Self-concept is a multi-dimensional factor that includes variables as body image, self-esteem and self-efficacy. Patients suffering from breast cancer present alterations in their self-concept and it affects the emotional well-being. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between variables of self-concept and emotional well-being. Methods: The sample consisted in 131 women diagnosed with breast cancer. The questionnaires used were HADS, RSES, BIS and a monoitem based in Bandura´s theory. Once the data was collected, they were coded in a database and subsequently analyzed using SPSS and for the structural model was used EQS 6.1 program. Results: Emotional well-being is influenced by alterations on self-concept. Patients who had more alterations in body image and less self-esteem and self-efficacy, had higher levels of anxiety and depression. Moreover, self-esteem and self-efficacy were mediating the relationship between body image and emotional well-being. Conclusions: This study provides evidence for mediating variables of self-concept that affect the emotional well-being of breast cancer patients and they can explain the symptoms of depression and anxiety.
