Background: Hypertension is one of the key risk factors for several diseases. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the determinants of hypertension self-management behaviors (HSBs) based on intervention mapping approach. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 800 hypertensive patients in southwestern Iran in 2018. A structured questionnaire was applied for data collection. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 16. Results: The mean age of respondents was 58.25 years (SD: 12.10; age range: 30 - 74 years). The best predictors for HSBs were perceived barriers, outcome expectations, and self-efficacy. Conclusions: Our findings have implications for the evidence-based design of HSBs promotion interventions.

Abstract Background Hypertension is one of the key risk factors for several diseases; can be followed several complications. The aim of this study was determine the determinants of hypertension self-management behaviors based on intervention mapping approach.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 800 hypertension patients in the in southwestern Iran, during 2018 which was systematic random sampling selected for participation in this study. A structured questionnaire was applied for collecting data and data were analyzed by SPSS version 16 using t-test, the ANOVA, bivariate correlations and linear regression analysis.Results The mean age of respondents was of 58.25 years (SD: 12.10), ranged from 30 to 74 years. These results suggest that the assessed constructs explained 51% of the variance in hypertension self-management behaviors. The best predictors for hypertension self-management behaviors were barriers, outcome expectations and self-efficacy.Conclusion The current study provides support for the use of intervention mapping approach in predicting hypertension self-management behaviors. These findings have implications for the evidence based design of hypertension self-management behaviors promotion interventions.

Introduction: Although breastfeeding is a common practice in Turkey, there are problems with exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of life or sustaining breastfeeding. The purpose of this study was to determine the variables that affect breastfeeding success of Turkish women by creating a hypothetical model based on the information–motivation–behavioral skills model. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 229 women who gave birth at a public hospital. Data were collected using a questionnaire and through observation. Structural equation model was used for data analyses. Results: Information was found to directly affect behavioral skills and indirectly affect self-management behaviors and breastfeeding success ( p < .05). The motivation was found to affect self-management behaviors directly ( p < .05). Behavioral skills were found to directly affect self-management behaviors and indirectly affect breastfeeding success ( p < .05). Discussion: The results can be used to develop culturally congruent nursing interventions and improve breastfeeding success.
