The present study examined the interactions between five dimensions of health locus of control beliefs and their relationships with medical regimen adherence in low-income individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. One hundred and nine patients were administered an expanded Multidimensional Health Locus of Control (MHLC) scale. HbA1c was used as a biological indicator of medical regimen adherence. Multivariate regression analyses demonstrated that three interactions were significantly related to HbA1c. The present findings suggest that HLOC may be meaningfully related to medical outcomes. However, these relationships may not be captured through the examination of main effects and may be only found when interactions are considered.
本研究考察了健康控制点信念的五个维度之间的相互作用，以及它们与被诊断为2型糖尿病的低收入个体的医疗方案依从性之间的关系。对109名患者进行了扩展的多维健康控制点（MHLC）量表测试。糖化血红蛋白（HbA1c）被用作医疗方案依从性的生物学指标。多元回归分析表明，有三种相互作用与糖化血红蛋白显著相关。本研究结果表明，健康控制点可能与医疗结果有意义地相关。然而，这些关系可能无法通过主效应的检验来捕捉，可能只有在考虑相互作用时才能发现。
