Reliability and validity of the brief COPE scale (english version) among women with breast cancer undergoing treatment of adjuvant chemotherapy: A Malaysian study

This paper validates the Brief COPE Scale in Malaysian women with breast cancer. Test-retest evaluation was undertaken at two/three weeks and ten weeks following surgery. Internal consistencies ranged from 0.25 to 1.00. Meanwhile, the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) ranged from 0.05 to 1.00...
