Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the factors relating to commitment to a plan for exercise in the breast cancer patient following a mastectomy and to examine the relationship between these factors.
Methods: This study was a correlational research and the participants were 152 patients with breast cancer. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire from June to October, 2015.
Results: The final regression model showed that income, experience of exercise and current exercise were significant predictors related to commitment to a plan for exercise in patients with breast cancer and explained for 65.9% of the variance in commitment to a plan for exercise.
Conclusion: The findings indicate that patients in breast cancer-oriented intervention programs have an enhancing experience of exercise. Current exercise should be provided for patients with breast cancer in order to promote health and quality of life.
