OBJECTIVES
To investigate the role of control beliefs in the relationship between SES and health.
METHODS
Two different aspects of perceived control - contingency beliefs (locus of control) and competence beliefs (self-efficacy) - were examined in relation to subjective SES and physical health outcomes (subjective health, functional impairment, chronic health problems, and acute health symptoms) in a diverse sample of undergraduates (N=231).
RESULTS
Low self-efficacy was directly associated with poorer health outcomes and mediated the relationship between low SES and health, whereas locus of control did not.
CONCLUSIONS
Health behavior interventions targeting generalized competence beliefs may benefit individuals from low SES backgrounds.
目的
探讨控制信念在社会经济地位（SES）与健康关系中的作用。
方法
在一个多样化的本科生样本（N = 231）中，研究了感知控制的两个不同方面——权变信念（控制点）和能力信念（自我效能）与主观SES及身体健康结果（主观健康、功能障碍、慢性健康问题和急性健康症状）之间的关系。
结果
低自我效能与较差的健康结果直接相关，并介导了低SES与健康之间的关系，而控制点则不然。
结论
针对普遍能力信念的健康行为干预可能使来自低SES背景的个体受益。
