Psycho-Oncology, 21, 571–587 Primary use / Purpose: The Attitude Follow-Up Scale (AFS) is a 19-item inventory rated on a 4 point Likert-type scale. Its purpose is to measure the attitudes of cancer patients towards follow-up. Patients’ attitudes are measured under four dimensions: communication (with a physician), reassurance, nervous anticipation, and perceived disadvantages of the follow-up process. Background: A substantial amount of research exists on the well-being and quality of life associated with clinical samples, especially those diagnosed with cancer. However, little research has specifically studied the physical and psychological outcomes associated with follow-up procedures between patient and physician. To address this, Stiggelbout, de Haes, & Vree et al. (1997) tweaked an existing scale developed by Kiebert, Welvaart, Kievit (1993) and ended up with the Attitude Follow-Up Scale (AFS). Psychometrics: The psychometric properties of the Attitude Follow-Up Scale (AFS) are discussed in Stiggelbout, de Haes, & Vree et al. (1997).

Attitude Follow-Up Scale (AFS)

We are interested in the situation of patients who come to the hospital regularly for follow-up after bowel surgery. On the next pages we ask you a number of questions about the follow-up visits for your bowel disease. Filling out these questions has no consequences for any eventual further treatment or follow-up. There are no right or wrong answers, we wish to hear your opinion. Answers will be dealt with confidentially. Some statements may seem to ask the same, but they are nevertheless different. Please circle for each statement the items that fits you best..
