Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (18)

• The Women Sexual Distress

  The research project assessed changes in female sexual distress using a self-developed Female Sexual Distress Scale, developed with reference to the Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised (FSDS-R) (Derogatis, Clayton, et al., 2008) and relevant literature. The scale consists of 22 items covering four dimensions of sexual health: comprehensive, physiological, psychological, and social. Items assess the frequency of emotional distress, including worry, depression, stress, low self-esteem, guilt, and distress. A 5-point Likert scale is used: 0 = never, 1 = rarely, 2 = occasionally, 3 = frequently, and 4 = always. The total score ranges from 0 to 88, with higher scores indicating greater sexual distress. Cronbach's alpha was 0.96, and the Content Validity Index (CVI) was 1.00.

• Gynecological Cancer Sexual Knowledge

  The research project assessed gynecologic cancer sexual health knowledge using the Gynecologic Cancer Sexual Health Knowledge Scale developed by Lee et al. (2020). The scale assesses women's knowledge of gynecologic cancer, its treatment, and their effects on sexual health and management. It consists of 22 multiple-choice items covering four dimensions: basic concepts of sexuality, effects of gynecologic cancer on sexual health, effects of gynecologic cancer treatment on sexual health, and management of sexual health problems related to gynecologic cancer. Each item has three response options: true, false, and don't know. Correct answers receive 1 point; incorrect and "don't know" responses receive 0 points. The total score ranges from 0 to 22, with higher scores indicating greater sexual health knowledge. The Kuder-Richardson Formula 20 was 0.81, Cronbach's alpha was 0.77, and the Content Validity Index (CVI) was 0.94 (Lee et al., 2020).

• Gynecological Cancer Sexual Attitudes

  The research project assessed attitudes toward sexual health using the Gynecologic Cancer Sexual Attitudes Scale developed by Lee et al. (2020). The scale assesses women's subjective attitudes and perceptions regarding gynecologic cancer, its treatment, sexual health, and sexual life. It consists of 25 items covering five dimensions: attitudes toward sexual communication between partners, perceptions of sexual relationships in couples with gynecologic cancer (intimate relationships), perceptions of body image after treatment, attitudes toward sexual health education for gynecologic cancer, and perceptions of gynecologic cancer and sexuality. A 5-point Likert scale is used, ranging from 5 = strongly agree to 1 = strongly disagree. Higher scores indicate more positive attitudes toward sexual health. Test-retest reliability was 0.92, Cronbach's alpha was 0.90, and the Content Validity Index (CVI) was 0.94 (Lee et al., 2020).

• Diversity of sexual activity

  The research project assessed sexual activity using the Diversity of Sexual Activity Scale (DSA) developed by Lee et al. (2020). The scale evaluates the types of sexual activities practiced by individuals or with their partners. It includes 12 types of sexual activities. Participants indicate the intimate activities they engage in, the frequency of each activity, and their satisfaction with each activity. Frequency is assessed using a 5-point scale ranging from 0 = never, 1 = rarely, 2 = occasionally, 3 = frequently, to 4 = always. Satisfaction is assessed using a 7-point scale ranging from 1 = very dissatisfied to 7 = very satisfied, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction with the activity. Cronbach's alpha was 0.976 in a postpartum sample (Lee \& Tsai, 2012) and 0.921 in women with gynecologic cancer (Lee et al., 2020).

• Sexual Satisfaction

  The research project assessed female sexual satisfaction using the New Sexual Satisfaction Scale-Short Form, Chinese version (NSSS-SC), translated by Wu et al. (2023). The scale consists of 12 items and uses a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 = not at all satisfied to 5 = extremely satisfied. The total score ranges from 12 to 60, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction with sexual life. Confirmatory factor analysis showed good model fit (CFI = 0.999, TLI = 0.999, SRMR = 0.055, RMSEA = 0.014). The scale demonstrated good internal consistency, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.96 (Wu et al., 2023).
