Abbreviations: Physical functioning (PF); Emotional well being (EWB); Physical composite score (PCS); Mental composite score (MCS); Urinary function (UF); Urinary bother (UB); Sexual function (SF); Sexual bother (SB); Bowel function (BF); Bowel bother (BB); Symptom distress scale (SDS); and Perceived Efficacy in Patient–Physician Interaction (PEPPI).

Referent Groups: Race (white); Partnership status (unpartnered); Stage (localized); Gleason score (<6); Education (college education); Comorbidity (Charlson score <1); Treatment (watchful waiting); Spirituality (low); and IMPACT status (enrolled).

Multivariate outcomes: + denotes statistically significant improved outcomes (p<0.05); − denotes statistically significant worse outcomes (p<0.05). Numbers refer to corresponding references in the manuscript.
