dc.description.abstractPurpose: The research was conducted in two stages; the first stage was carried out methodologically to assess the validity and reliability of the Information and Support Needs Questionnaire developed by Chalmers and Thomson (1996). Second stage was conducted descriptively to determine the information and support needs. Patients and Methods: The validity and reliability of the scale an interview was conducted with the first-degree relatives of individuals with breast cancer who referred to Breast and Radiation Oncology Department of Ege University (n= 100) in 10 June 2005-15 Feb. 2006. The second stage of the research was carried out at same departments between the dates of 01 March - 15 May 2006 (n= 150). Results: The Kendall Compatibility Coefficient of the scale was found as W: 0.244 and p<0.01. Test-retest reliability coefficient information and support needs and between the first and second applications were found as r=0.99. It was established that the consistency of scale at temporal stage was at a sufficient level. Cronbach alpha coefficient information need was found 0.87 and support need 0.91; they were found 0.85 and 0.90 respectively. The reliability of the scale was found high (0.80< alpha< 1.00). As a result of application of the scale which its validity and reliability were determined in the first section the mean scores especially of information needs of the women who has a firstdegree with cancer were found high (X = 1.98 +/- 0.97 for support need and X = 3.46 +/- 0.29 for information need). Conclusion: Women's information need was found higher than their support need.
