Adults With Advanced Lung Cancer
Older adults with stage III or stage IV lung cancer will be enrolled in the Self-System Therapy intervention to treat illness-related distress, depression, and to enhance self-efficacy via delivery of behavioral coping skills across a period of 10 weeks. Self System Therapy for Older Adults with Advanced Lung Cancer (SST-LC) Resilience: The SST-LC is a brief structured intervention deliverable by video conference. The SST-LC Resilience protocol will incorporate behavioral strategies designed to meet the needs of older adults with lung cancer, including examining individual and shared expectations for lung cancer care, identifying discrepancies between expectations and realistic possibilities, and modifying stress-exacerbating behaviors. The focus will be to test measures of resilience during the intervention period.

Depression will be measured using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II). The measure consists of 21 items. The BDIII is scored by summing the ratings for the 21 items. Each item is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 to 3 with a total score range of 0 to 63. Higher scores indicate greater depression.

Physical Activity will be measured using the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE). The instrument is comprised of 12 self-reported occupational, household and leisure activities items over a one-week period. The total PASE score is computed by multiplying either the time spent in each activity (hours per week) or participation (i.e., yes/no) in an activity, by empirically derived item weights and then summing overall activities. The PASE instrument uses frequency, duration, and intensity level of activity over the previous week to assign a score. The overall PASE score ranges from 0 to 793, where a higher score indicates more physical activity.
