The main results are as follows. There were significant differences in the sleep quality according to gender, cancer recurrence, diagnosis, and duration of cancer. There were significant correlations between pain, depression, fear of cancer recurrence, and sleep quality. As a result of hierarchical multiple regression, fear of cancer recurrence, gender, recurrence, and duration of cancer were found to be significant influencing factors.
