The aim of this study was to provide a short German self-report measurement, assessing subjective CRCI for a broad variety of cancer survivors. For this purpose, the AFI (Attentional Function Index) was translated into German and psychometric properties have been presented in the following publication among a sample of 1312 haematological cancer survivors. In the resulting article the factorial structure of the German translation of the AFI, the internal consistency among the total score and each subscale, construct validity and the associations of the AFI sum score with medical and socio-demographic variables are provided. Comparisons to the English version are additionally drawn. With the validated AFI, researchers and clinicians in
German-speaking countries may now have new tool to assess, and thus improve an
important component of QoL in cancer survivors [38].
