%X this study analyzes stress, coping strategies, resilience and subjective well-being of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. sixty subjects, between 26 to 82 years old (20 man and 40 woman), answered the subjective well-being scale, the resilience and the stress symptoms inventory and the coping response inventory - adult form (cri-a). the results showed that the use of approach coping strategies is associated with a higher level of resilience and with positive affect, while using avoidant coping strategies can lead to an increased perception of negative affect and to a lower report of positive affect. the results of this study suggest that coping strategies are related to resilience factors and can interfere with the subjective well-being of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy treatment.
