| dc.description.abstract | Adherence and health-related quality of life in patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) are complex issues that may be influenced by a number of factors, including self-efficacy and coping style. This study seeks to further examine the relationship between self-efficacy, coping, adherence, and quality of life in individuals with CF. Adults diagnosed with CF were recruited through internet support websites and completed several surveys online that assessed participants' demographic and disease information, adherence to airway clearance, coping style, self-efficacy, and health-related ¡quality of life. Correlational and regression data analyses were utilized to explore the relationship between these different factors and how they interact and influence one another. Data analysis indicated several significant correlations between variables, as well as significant prediction models for quality of life and adherence to airway clearance techniques. | |
