Resumen	The FACIT-Palliative (FACIT-Pal) is a 12-item self-report subscale of the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) family, specifically designed to measure spiritual well-being and existential meaning in patients with advanced cancer and life-limiting illness. Developed by Peterman and colleagues in 2002 and funded by the National Cancer Institute, the FACIT-Pal is embedded within larger FACIT instruments and has become a standard spiritual quality-of-life measure in oncology trials, hospice research, and palliative care programs internationally.	The Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS) is a 20-item self-report measure of spiritual well-being encompassing both religious faith and existential meaning—two dimensions critical to quality of life at end-of-life. Developed by Paloutzian and Ellison in 1982, the SWBS has become a cornerstone assessment tool in palliative care, chaplaincy, and oncology to identify unmet spiritual needs, guide supportive interventions, and evaluate the impact of spiritual care programs on patient outcomes.
