Religious factors are known to contribute to treatment adherence in different patient populations, and religious coping has been found to be particularly important to adolescents dealing with chronic diseases. Adherence to prescribed treatments slows disease progression and contributes to desirable outcomes in most patients, and, therefore, adherence-promoting interventions provided by chaplains could be beneficial to various patient populations. The current article describes a pilot study to test the feasibility of a theoretically and empirically based chaplain intervention to promote treatment adherence for adolescents with CF. Cognitive interviews were conducted 24 with adolescents with CF, and content analysis was used to identify themes, which informed revision of the intervention protocol. The authors thought that presenting the methods and results of this pilot study would be helpful for chaplains who want to conduct intervention research. The results indicated that the proposed intervention was acceptable and feasible to deliver in hard copy or an electronic platform.
众所周知，宗教因素有助于不同患者群体坚持治疗，并且已发现宗教应对方式对于患有慢性病的青少年尤为重要。坚持规定的治疗可减缓疾病进展，并有助于大多数患者获得理想的治疗效果，因此，牧师提供的促进坚持治疗的干预措施可能对各类患者群体有益。本文描述了一项试点研究，以测试基于理论和实证的牧师干预措施对促进囊性纤维化（CF）青少年患者坚持治疗的可行性。对CF青少年患者进行了24次认知访谈，并采用内容分析法确定主题，这些主题为干预方案的修订提供了依据。作者认为，介绍这项试点研究的方法和结果将有助于想要开展干预研究的牧师。结果表明，所提议的干预措施以纸质版或电子平台形式提供都是可以接受且可行的。
