Effectiveness of Character Strengths-based Intervention Among Breast Cancer Patients

"Character strengths-based intervention (CSI) is one kind of positive psychology interventions. It specifically focuses on character strengths, related activities and exercises assisting individuals to reconnect with their characters and promote self-conceptualization.~The researcher will develop an education module on CSI based on the previous literatures conducted in China and other countries. Before the RCT, this module will be adapted to Chinese participants. During the intervention, participants in the intervention group will be offered the educational module to learn about strengths, comments around the definition of character strengths and examples of specific strengths."
