Many studies have proved the role of emotions in the appearance and accentuation of several diseases, such as cancer.

This leads us to focus on the impact of these strategies on the quality of life of breast cancer patients and their partners, being the first to provide care to them, in order to investigate the impact of emotional organization strategies which are; Cognitive reevaluation and expressive repression, on the adaptation of women with breast cancer, and their husbands' adaptation to their illness, in terms of quality of life in general, and its psychological dimension in particular, for both.

This objective is achieved by using the descriptive statistical approach and through a statistical APIM model study.

The tools used in the study, after studying its reliability and validity, are: Gross and John's Emotional Regulation Scale (ERQ), and SF-12 Quality of Life Scale.
