Brief Summary: To explore the presence of post traumatic disorder and its association with coping strategies in children and adolescents during cancer follow-up care

Hypothesis the investigators expect a reduction of post traumatic symptoms according to adequate coping strategies eg approach coping styles
Detailed Description: Oncological disease in childhood or adolescence can represent a highly traumatic experience considering its physical psychological and social consequences in the short and long term The literature has investigated this population both in the acute phase of the disease and at the end of the therapies to explore the potentially traumatic effects of this experience While some studies support the non-incidence of post-traumatic symptoms related to the disease and underline a post-traumatic growth other studies confirm a high risk of developing post-traumatic symptoms This risk increases according to specific demographic eg age of diagnosis and clinical eg type of disease of treatments etc characteristics The literature also points out that these consequences can be mediated by some factors including coping strategies that is the way patients manage stress

The study aims to investigate the presence of post-traumatic symptoms in patients out of therapy and in follow-up care to explore the possible association between this post-traumatic symptomatology and the coping strategies used by the patients to focus the possible correlation between post traumatic symptoms coping and the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients
