“…GSE may also be useful to select those patients who may be helped by counselling or cognitive behaviour therapy along the disease progression as ALS patients: Roelands et al [33] have found that self-efficacy is related to a greater predisposition to accept and use ADs in elderly patients with problems of self-care and mobility.…”

Heart failure, oxidative stress and allopurinol. Application of the general perceived self-efficacy scale in cardiovascular rehabilitation. A.M. Zotti, G. Balestroni, P. Cerutti, S. Rossi Ferrario, E. Angelino, M. Miglioretti.Psychosocial support, education and self-management are important complements of rehabilitation programs. A central concept in self-management is self-efficacy, which refers to oneself confidence in reaching a desired goal. The General Perceived Self-Efficacy scale (GSE), developed to measure self-efficacy at the broadest level, could be useful in the rehabilitation setting, in order to assess patients' selfmanagement difficulties as well as to design specific interventions for specific diseases.Aim of this work is to verify the GSE Italian version psychometric properties applied to the rehabilitation setting. Data were analyzed from 395 in-patients attending cardiac (83.8%) and neurological (16.2%) rehabilitation. Cardiac patients suffered from post-MI, CABG or heart-failure; all of the neurological patients suffered from amiotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). They were mostly males (84.5%), and the mean age was 55.7 years. Principal component factor analysis confirmed that GSE has a monofactorial structure with internal consistency of .85. As in previous studies, a gender difference emerged. There was no difference in cardiac patients, on the basis of their specific disease, but they showed higher self-efficacy perception compared to ALS patients. The findings confirm that GSE is a valid measure of self-efficacy in settings characterised by different levels of functional abilities, as in cardiac and neurological rehabilitation.

“…One possible reason for the lack of a relationship is that in this case, older adults depend on their own beliefs and judgment. Roelands et al (2002) study used 491 community-dwelling elderly between 70 to 89 years of age to measure the use of assistive devices. Self-efficacy (self-efficacy was used in this study instead of PBC) (β=.47, p≤.001) showed a stronger significant prediction power for intention than attitude (β=.17, p≤.001) and subjective norm (β=.01, p≤.05).…”

“…Our study results demonstrate that some subscales exhibit better psychometric properties than others, and thus, these subscales deserve further consideration for use as a screening tool. Other instruments, such as those developed by Roelands and colleagues measuring self-efficacy and intention [6], can also be explored for use as screening tools because they may be administered before actual assistive device use. Finally, because adherence requires active involvement of the patient in managing the device, initial patient screening may be combined with subsequent training strategies that are based on psychosocial factors associated with compliance.…”

“…The QUEST is designed to measure satisfaction with a broad range of assistive technology and asks respondents how satisfied they are with specific features such as weight, height, length, width, and some characteristics of the services related to the device, i.e., repairs and servicing [5]. In another study, Roelands and colleagues developed separate subscales for community-dwelling older adults living in Belgium to measure awareness, possession and use of assistive devices, attitudes toward use, self-efficacy, and intention to use assistive devices [6].…”

Abstract-The objectives of this study were to describe the psychometric properties of the Cane Cognitive Mediator Scale (CCMS) and the Psychosocial Impact of Assistive Devices Scale (PIADS) in adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and to determine the feasibility of applying these instruments as screening tools to identify patients with the propensity to use a cane. Data from a randomized crossover trial were analyzed for 53 older adults with knee OA. Perceptions on using a cane were measured at baseline using the CCMS and PIADS. The CCMS was repeated 1 wk later. At 6 mo, subjects rated their intention to use a cane. The findings indicated that 1 wk test-retest reliability was acceptable for the CCMS Attitudes and Subjective Norms subscales (r = 0.48 to 0.93) and low for the CCMS Perceived Behavioral Control subscale (r = 0.15). Internal consistency reliability was good for each CCMS and PIADS subscale. The CCMS Subjective Norms subscale demonstrated acceptable predictive validity across all subgroups (r = 0.53 to 0.88). The PIADS Adaptability subscale demonstrated acceptable predictive validity for the 45 to 64 yr-old age group (r = 0.54). The findings indicate that the CCMS Subjective Norms subscale exhibits good psychometric properties and has potential application as a screening tool.Clinical Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov; NCT00223795.

A Social–Cognitive Model to Predict the Use of Assistive Devices for Mobility and Self-Care in Elderly People

Abstract: This study suggests that a social-cognitive model of human behavior can be helpful in explaining the use of ADs. The model can suggest measures to be developed aiming to improve the introduction of ADs.
