There is evidence that the psychological attribute of perceived self-efficacy plays a role in mediating health outcomes for persons with chronic arthritis who take the Arthritis Self-Management Course. An instrument to measure perceived self-efficacy was developed through consultation with patients and physicians and through study of 4 groups of patients. Tests of construct and concurrent validity and of reliability showed that the instrument met appropriate standards. Health outcomes and self-efficacy scores improved during the Arthritis Self-Management Course, and the improvements were correlated.
有证据表明，自我效能感这一心理属性在接受关节炎自我管理课程的慢性关节炎患者的健康结果中介导过程中发挥作用。通过与患者和医生协商并对4组患者进行研究，开发了一种测量自我效能感的工具。结构效度、同时效度和信度测试表明该工具符合适当标准。在关节炎自我管理课程期间，健康结果和自我效能感得分有所改善，且这些改善具有相关性。
