Final Model | β | 95% CI | p-Values |
---|---|---|---|
Constant | −10.908 | −15.872 to −5.934 | - |
Centered baseline CD-RISC25 score | −0.254 | −0.329 to −0.178 | <0.001 |

Able to pay an unexpected bill of SEK 11 000/EUR 1100 | 3.649 | 0.278 to 7.019 | 0.034 |
Variables entered: Centered baseline resilience score, menstrual status, mode of detection, stage of breast cancer, adjuvant chemotherapy, adjuvant endocrine therapy, adjuvant radiotherapy, physical activity, social network, education level, financial situation, trust in the treatment, satisfaction with the implementation of the treatment, and satisfaction with the staff–patient encounters. Notes: A p-value > 0.157 for removal. R2, goodness-of-fit for the final model = 0.122.
