A secondary statistical analysis of data from a study investigating the relations among health-promoting self-care behaviors, self-care self-efficacy, and self-care agency in an older adult population is reported (Callaghan, in press). Influences of selected basic conditioning factors on the practice of healthy behaviors, self-efficacy beliefs, and ability for self-care in 235 older adults is presented. The research instruments used to collect data for this study include the following: Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II scale, Self-Rated Abilities for Health Practices scale, Exercise of Self-Care Agency scale, and a demographic questionnaire assessing basic conditioning factors. Statistically significant relations were found between the following basic conditioning factors and the study variables: education, income, health insurance, race, support system, routine practice of religion, medical problems, marital status, gender, age, and number of children. Community health nurses can use these results in directing interventions that promote the self-care and health of older adults.
本文报告了一项关于老年人群健康促进自我护理行为、自我护理自我效能感和自我护理能力之间关系的研究数据的二次统计分析（卡拉汉，即将发表）。介绍了选定的基本调节因素对235名老年人健康行为实践、自我效能信念和自我护理能力的影响。本研究用于收集数据的研究工具包括：健康促进生活方式概况II量表、健康实践自我评定能力量表、自我护理能力行使量表，以及一份评估基本调节因素的人口统计学问卷。在以下基本调节因素与研究变量之间发现了具有统计学意义的关系：教育程度、收入、医疗保险、种族、支持系统、宗教常规实践、医疗问题、婚姻状况、性别、年龄和子女数量。社区健康护士可以利用这些结果指导促进老年人自我护理和健康的干预措施。
