Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation between social support and the self-efficacy among community patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases ( COPD ) .Methods From October 2008 to March 2009 ,320 community patients with COPD were recruited from a community health service center by using a convenience sampling.The research data were taken by questionnaires and scale .The Spearman’s correlation analysis was done to analyze the correlation of social support and the self-efficacy.Results The total score of social support of the patients with COPD was ( 37 .64 ±5 .96 ) , which was lower than the national norm (40.80 ±7.64), and the total score of self-efficacy was (74.24 ±9.50).The number of patients with medium-level self-efficacy was 286 (89.4%).The overall social support was positively correlated with self-efficacy (r=0.553,P<0.01), and it was also positively correlated with the various dimensions of self-efficacy (r=0.190-0.515,P <0.05).Conclusions Social support and the self-efficacy are closely related.It is important to promote patients ’ self-efficacy and mobilize the social and family support by various approaches .
