Hello Norine,

Edelen, M. O., Chandra, A., Stucky, B., Schear, R., Neal, C., & Rechis, R. (2014). Developing a Global Cancer Stigma Index. SAGE Open, 4(3), 2158244014547875.

I found this but it is for people who don't have cancer:

Marlow, L. A., & Wardle, J. (2014). Development of a scale to assess cancer stigma in the non-patient population. BMC cancer, 14(1), 1.

There seemed a few about lung cancer but they were quite specific, e.g.:

Cataldo, J. K., Slaughter, R., Jahan, T. M., Pongquan, V. L., & Hwang, W. J. (2011, January). Measuring stigma in people with lung cancer: psychometric testing of the cataldo lung cancer stigma scale. In Oncology nursing forum (Vol. 38, No. 1, p. E46). NIH Public Access.
