The analysis showed a significant relationship between performance status and anxiety (p<0.01), performance status and depression (p<0.05), as well as performance status with mixed anxiety and depression (p<0.001).Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that performancee status ECOG ≥3 is a risk factor for anxiety, depression, and both anxiety and depression in patients diagnosed with malignancy.
