Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of mild cognitive impairment on the subjective well-being of the elderly and the mediating role of self-efficacy in it. To provide an effective basis for health management and clinical intervention in the elderly with mild cognitive impairment.Methods:A total of 164 patients with mild cognitive impairment from December 2018 to June 2019 were surveyed by the General Self-efficacy Scale, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale, and the Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness Scale.Results:The overall score of self-efficacy was 21.41±3.98, and subjective well-being was 26.44±7.35. There was a positive correlation among cognitive function, self-efficacy and subjective well-being, except that there was no significant correlation between self-efficacy and cognitive function( r values were 0.263-0.687, P<0.01). Self-efficacy played a part in mediating between cognitive function and subjective well-being in patients with mild cognitive impairment, accounting for 37.8% of the total effect. Conclusions:Mild cognitive impairment can also have a negative impact on the subjective well-being of the elderly. Among them, self-efficacy plays a particularly important role in mediating. Interventions about self-efficacy on the elderly with mild cognitive impairment may have more significant effects.
