Cancer symptoms make patients less able to cope with their health conditions, more vulnerable to negative outcomes, and more likely to develop negative self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is one's judgment and belief in how successfully one can overcome possible future challenges. The self-efficacy theory holds that people are likely to engage in activities which they believe they can accomplish and avoid those in which they perceive themselves to be incompetent. Self-efficacy is of paramount significance for cancer patients to cope with treatment-related physical, social, and psychological problems and to adapt to new life situations. It should, therefore, be considered an integral part of well-being and success in symptom management. Nurses play a significant role in health-promoting behavior development. Nurses also manage such variables as maintaining activities of daily living, increased success rates, adaptation to change, involving family and social support mechanisms in the process, and encouraging and informing patients. Thus, nurses also support patients to increase their self-efficacy perceptions. The purpose of this review is to present the literature on the concept of self-efficacy, which is a determinant of the coping behaviors of patients with cancer.

PurposeNo instrument exists for measuring TB patients’ self-efficacy which is vital for choosing and insisting in benefit TB-management behaviors. Our study aimed to develop and test a new tuberculosis self-efficacy scale (TBSES).Patients and methodsThe TBSES was designed through literature review, individual interviews, Delphi surveys, and pilot testing. After that, 460 TB patients were recruited to validate TBSES. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and correlation analysis were used to evaluate the scale reliability and validity. The cut-off point for TBSES was identified using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.ResultsThe final TBSES includes 21 items scored on a 5-point Likert scale, and these items are loaded in four distinct factors that explain 67.322% of the variance, both exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis proved that the scale had good construct validity. The scale had adequate internal consistency, split-half reliability, test-retest reliability, as well as demonstrated content, concurrent validity. The ROC analysis results showed the cut-off point was 86.5.ConclusionThis 21-item TBSES demonstrated favorable psychometric properties. It provides an instrument for not only measuring specific self-efficacy in TB, but also identifying patients with low self-efficacy and determining the specific area toward designing interventions for enhance self-efficacy.

“…Many healthcare fields have applied self‐efficacy to behaviors relevant to clinical problems of interest, including smoking cessation, diabetes management, and weight control, supporting that high efficacy beliefs are associated with better treatment initiation and maintenance, as well as positive lifestyle changes 2,3 . For example, in cancer patients, greater self‐efficacy is associated with higher quality of life (QoL) and decreased psychological distress 4‐6 . Evidence suggests that interventions to improve self‐efficacy can contribute to improved QoL, decreased symptom distress, increased physical activity, and positive health behavior changes 5,7,8 .…”

Objectives: We adapted a self-efficacy measure for managing chronic illness to be specific to persons with mild cognitive impairment (pwMCI). The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the scale, the self-efficacy for managing MCI scale, for use in research. Methods: Analyses involved data from pwMCI enrolled in a behavioral intervention study that completed the measure five times from intervention enrollment to 18-month post-intervention. Factor structure, construct validity, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability were analyzed. Results: Factor analysis identified two factors, related to self-efficacy for daily activities and managing MCI, which corresponded with domains from the original chronic illness self-efficacy scale. Consistent with prior research, construct validity analysis suggested an association between memory-loss self-efficacy and psychosocial distress, but not cognitive or functional ability. Further analyses supported the scale's internal and test-retest reliability. Conclusions: Currently, no "gold standard" scale of memory-loss self-efficacy for pwMCI exists, despite the positive impact self-efficacy may have on modifiable health behaviors. Overall, results supported the notion that the scale is a valid and reliable measure of memory-loss self-efficacy for pwMCI.

Development and Preliminary Evaluation of Psychometric Properties of Symptom-Management Self-Efficacy Scale for Breast Cancer Related to Chemotherapy

Abstract: The study results demonstrate acceptable reliability and validity for the SMSES-BC that was developed for measuring symptom-management self-efficacy related to chemotherapy for patients with breast cancer. This study suggests further research to validate the construct of the SMSES-BC.
