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).
