This study was designed to test a causality-based model in the context of relationships based on social cognitive theory and the literature for the purpose of examining how self-efficacy directly affects the quality of life of migraine patients through self- disease management skills. The sample of the study consisted of 343 migraine patients selected from a neurology outpatient clinic. The data were collected with self-report method using Self-Disease Management Strategies Scale in Migraine Patients developed by the researcher, the interview form, Quality of Life Scale in Migraine Patients and Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-Item Scale, SEMCD developed by Stanford Patient Education Research Center. In order to test construct validity of scales, explanatory factor analysis and varimax axis rotation basic component analysis were applied. Cronbach's alpha values were calculated by analyzing the internal consistency for all the items in the scales and each subscale of the scale. The model proposed in the study was tested by using Structural Equation Model (SEM)-path analysis with latent variables in lisrel program. In SEM application, direct effect of self-efficacy on quality of life and indirect effect on self-disease management strategies were found to be statistically significant.  Based on these results, self-efficacy can be thought to be a determinant of self-efficacy, quality of life of the patient and the patient’s skills of using self-disease management strategies. In order to improve the quality of life of migraine patients, their self-efficacy on disease management should be assessed and nursing practices should be planned to increase their confidence in the ability of preventing and managing migraine attacks.Extended English abstract is in the end of PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu araştırma, öz yeterliğin migrenli hastaların yaşam kalitesini doğrudan ve kendi kendine hastalık yönetimi becerileri aracılığı yoluyla ne kadar etkilediğini incelemek amacıyla, sosyal bilişsel teoriden temel alarak ve literatüre dayalı ilişkiler bağlamında nedensellik temelli bir modeli test etmek amacıyla planlanmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini bir nöroloji polikliniğinden seçilen 343 migren hastası oluşturmuştur. Veriler, görüşme formu, araştırmacı tarafından geliştirilen Migrenli Hastalarda Kendi Kendine Hastalık Yönetim Stratejileri Ölçeği, Migrenli Hastalarda Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği ve Standford Hasta Eğitim Araştırma Merkezi tarafından geliştirilen[WK1] [Mh2]  Kronik Hastalıkları Yönetimde Öz Yeterlik Ölçeği (Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-Item Scale, SEMCD) kullanılarak öz bildirim yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Ölçeklerin yapı geçerliliğini test etmek için açıklayıcı faktör analizi ve varimaks’ eksen döndürme temel bileşenler analizi uygulanmıştır. Ölçeklerde yer alan maddelerin tamamı ve ölçeğin her bir alt boyutu için, iç tutarlık analizi yapılarak, Cronbach Alfa değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Araştırmada ileri sürülen model, lisrel programında Yapısal Eşitlik Modeli (YEM)-örtük değişkenlerle yol analizi yapılarak test edilmiştir. YEM uygulamasında öz yeterliğin yaşam kalitesi üzerine doğrudan etkisi ve kendi kendine hastalık yönetim stratejileri üzerinden dolaylı etkisi istatiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Bu sonuçlara dayanarak; öz yeterlik, hastanın yaşam kalitesini, kendi kendine hastalık yönetim stratejilerini kullanma becerisinin bir belirleyicisi olarak düşünülebilir. Migrenli hastaların yaşam kalitesini artırmak için migrenli hastaların hastalık yönetimi konusundaki öz yeterlikleri değerlendirilmeli, hemşirelik uygulamaları hastaların migren atağını önleme ve yönetme becerileri konusundaki kendilerine olan güvenini artıracak şekilde planlanmalıdır.// // // //

The aim of this study was to validate a Chinese version of the Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-Item Scale (SES6C). In 2012, a cross-sectional study was conducted in a community clinic, in Beijing, China. A total of 262 hypertension patients participated in this study. Concurrent validity was validated by Pearson’s correlations between the SES6C and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were performed to evaluate test-retest reliability of the scale. Related factors of self-efficacy were explored in linear regression models. The results of our study display acceptable psychometric properties: the scale was two-dimensional, reproducible (ICC = 0.78; 95% CI, 0.70–0.84), and the reliability was good (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.88). Significant (r=-0.30; P<0.001) correlation was found between the level of self-efficacy and the level of psychological distress. In multivariable analysis, the factors significantly associated with self-efficacy were regular exercise (β=0.659, P<0.01), HADS total score (β=-0.076, P<0.001) and health status (β=-0.530, P<0.001). The study provides evidence that the SES6C is acceptable, valid and repeatable for hypertension patients.

Abstract STUDY QUESTION What self-management factors are associated with quality of life among women with endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER Greater self-efficacy was associated with improved physical and mental quality of life. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Women with endometriosis have an impaired quality of life compared to the general female population. However, most studies have investigated quality of life in a hospital or clinic setting rather than a community setting and the association between self-management factors and quality of life have not, to date, been investigated. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION A cross-sectional, population-based online survey was performed, which was advertised through women’s, community and endometriosis-specific groups. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS A total of 620 women completed the survey for this study. Mental and physical quality of life was assessed using the standardized SF36v2 questionnaire. Self-management factors included self-efficacy, partners in health (active involvement in managing the condition) and performance of self-care activities. Treatment approaches included the use of hormonal treatment, pain medications and complementary therapies and whether the participant had a chronic disease management plan. Hierarchical regression analyses were used to examine whether self-management and treatment factors were associated with quality of life. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE Both physical and mental quality of life were significantly lower among women with endometriosis compared to the mean scores of the general Australian female population (P &lt; 0.001). Physical quality of life was positively associated with income sufficiency (P &lt; 0.001) and greater self-efficacy (P &lt; 0.001), but negatively associated with age (P &lt; 0.001), pain severity (P &lt; 0.001), use of prescription medications (P &lt; 0.001), having a chronic disease management plan (P &lt; 0.05) and number of self-care activities (P &lt; 0.05). Mental quality of life was positively associated with being older (P &lt; 0.001), partnered (P &lt; 0.001), having a university education (P &lt; 0.05), increasing self-efficacy (P &lt; 0.001) and higher partners in health scores (P &lt; 0.001). LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION Results are derived from a cross-sectional study and can only be interpreted as associations not as causal relationships. The sample was more educated, more likely to speak English and be born in Australia than the general Australian female population of the same age, which may influence the generalizability of these results. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS This study investigated a knowledge gap by investigating quality of life of women with endometriosis in a large community sample. Self-efficacy was significantly associated with both physical and mental quality of life. Supporting women with endometriosis to improve self-efficacy through a structured chronic disease management programme may lead to improvements in this aspect of wellbeing.

The Impact

Background Although there is a rise in the use of mobile health (mHealth) tools to support chronic disease management, evidence derived from theory-driven design is lacking. Objective The objective of this study was to determine the impact of an mHealth app that incorporated theory-driven trigger messages. These messages took different forms following the Fogg behavior model (FBM) and targeted self-efficacy, knowledge, and self-care. We assess the feasibility of our app in modifying these behaviors in a pilot study involving individuals with diabetes. Methods The pilot randomized unblinded study comprised two cohorts recruited as employees from within a health care system. In total, 20 patients with type 2 diabetes were recruited for the study and a within-subjects design was utilized. Each participant interacted with an app called capABILITY. capABILITY and its affiliated trigger (text) messages integrate components from social cognitive theory (SCT), FBM, and persuasive technology into the interactive health communications framework. In this within-subjects design, participants interacted with the capABILITY app and received (or did not receive) text messages in alternative blocks. The capABILITY app alone was the control condition along with trigger messages including spark and facilitator messages. A repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare adherence with behavioral measures and engagement with the mobile app across conditions. A paired sample t test was utilized on each health outcome to determine changes related to capABILITY intervention, as well as participants’ classified usage of capABILITY. Results Pre- and postintervention results indicated statistical significance on 3 of the 7 health survey measures (general diet: P=.03; exercise: P=.005; and blood glucose: P=.02). When only analyzing the high and midusers (n=14) of capABILITY, we found a statistically significant difference in both self-efficacy (P=.008) and exercise (P=.01). Although the ANOVA did not reveal any statistically significant differences across groups, there is a trend among spark conditions to respond more quickly (ie, shorter log-in lag) following the receipt of the message. Conclusions Our theory-driven mHealth app appears to be a feasible means of improving self-efficacy and health-related behaviors. Although our sample size is too small to draw conclusions about the differential impact of specific forms of trigger messages, our findings suggest that spark triggers may have the ability to cue engagement in mobile tools. This was demonstrated with the increased use of capABILITY at the beginning and conclusion of the study depending on spark timing. Our results suggest that theory-driven personalization of mobile tools is a viable form of intervention.
