    Development and Psychometric Properties of the Self-Efficacy Scale for Symptom Management and Self-Care in Patients with Cardiac Surgery
    (Springer Publishing Co, 2025) Aksut, Rabia Saglam; Capik, Canturk; Elmas, Tugce Bozkurt
    Background and Purpose: Evaluating self-efficacy for symptom management and self-care is crucial for ensuring follow-up care after cardiac surgery. As there is not yet a validated measurement tool for this evaluation, the aim of this study was to develop the Self-Efficacy Scale for Symptom Management and Self-Care (SESMSC: Cardiac Surgery) in patients with cardiac surgery and to examine its psychometric properties. Methods: The Symptom Management Theory and Bandura's Self-Efficacy Theory were used as the theoretical background for scale development. A multiphase design was utilized. The initial development phase consisted of item generation and expert panel review. The second phase comprised a three-step validation process: (a) face and content analysis (CFA) for construct validity, and (c) Cronbach's alpha, test-retest, and item- total correlation analysis to assess internal consistency reliability. The sample (n = 401) was randomly divided into two subsamples for EFA and CFA (EFA group: n = 201; CFA group: n = 200). Results: EFA suggested a 20-item, two-factor structure with factor loadings of .342-.782. The two subscales of the scale were labeled symptom management self-efficacy and self-efficacy for ch's alpha, test-retest, and item-total correlation results demonstrated acceptable internal consistency reliability. Implications for Practice: The SESMSC: Cardiac Surgery may be a useful tool to evaluate self-efficacy for symptom management and self-care after cardiac surgery. Further evaluation in independent samples is needed to investigate its psychometric properties and usefulness in clinical practice.

    Psychological Effects of Robotic Rehabilitation in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury: A Narrative Review
    (BMC, 2025) Ibrahim, Ismail A.; Mounir, Mennatallah M.; Hussein, Omar; Parnian, Nadieh; Sefertas, Ece; Ravanbod, Amin; Arican, Tuna Eren
    IntroductionSpinal cord injury (SCI) is associated with severe physical, psychological, and social burdens. Robotic rehabilitation, especially robotic-assisted gait training, is increasingly used to improve functional recovery. Nonetheless, its psychological effects which are key to motivation, compliance, and long-term prognosis have received little scrutiny.MethodsWe conducted a narrative review across five databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane, Embase) from inception to January 2025. Studies were included if they evaluated robotic rehabilitation in SCI and reported psychological outcomes. Findings were synthesized thematically into domains of anxiety/technophobia, motivation/engagement, self-efficacy/dependence, and frustration/quality of life.ResultsRobotic systems frequently improved autonomy, motivation, and self-confidence, which corresponded to less depression and a better quality of life. Nevertheless, negative effects including technophobia, frustration from technological malfunction, and loss of self-efficacy from excessive dependence were found. Patient experiences ranged: empowerment and new optimism were reported by some patients, whereas others experienced the devices as complicated, emotionally alienating, or inadequately adjustable.DiscussionRobotic rehabilitation has a dual psychological effect. On one hand, it encourages engagement and emotional resilience; on the other, it carries risks of interdependence and diminished autonomy. There are ethical issues to be resolved access disparities, data protection, and preserving human connection that require careful management. The inclusion of psychological screening, education of patients, and specific goal-setting within protocols can maximize results.ConclusionRobotic rehabilitation is highly capable of promoting progress after SCI if psychological considerations are completely incorporated into rehabilitation interventions. A multimodal approach that is interdisciplinary and ethically solid is required to achieve optimized functional improvement as well as psychosocial health.

    Assessment of Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy in Nursing Mothers Following Earthquakes: A Case Study of the Kahramanmaraş Earthquakes in Turkey
    (Kashan Univ Medical Sciences, 2025) Dinmez, Sinem Guven; Karaman, Ozen Esra; Bakir, Emine
    Background: Natural disasters disproportionately impact vulnerable populations, particularly mothers and infants. Research indicates that during such events, mothers often favor formula and supplementary feeding over breastfeeding. Self-efficacy is a critical determinant influencing breastfeeding practices in disaster contexts.<br /> Objectives: This study aimed to examine the breastfeeding characteristics and self-efficacy of nursing mothers following the Kahramanmara & scedil; earthquakes.<br /> Methods: This descriptive study was conducted at the Children's Polyclinic of Iskenderun State Hospital in Turkey from August 1 to August 31, 2023. A total of 54 mothers with infants aged 0-1 year at the time of the earthquake, who continued to breastfeed (providing breast milk for at least one feeding), were selected using a non-probability purposive sampling method. During the study period, all eligible mothers visiting the polyclinic who met the inclusion criteria were evaluated. Data were collected using a "Descriptive Data Form" and the "Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Short Form Scale". Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 23, employing Independent Samples t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and One-Way ANOVA for group comparisons. A P-value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.<br /> Results: The mean breastfeeding self-efficacy score among mothers was 58 +/- 5.87 (minimum 40; maximum 70). Mothers who exclusively breastfed their infants had significantly higher self-efficacy scores compared to those who introduced formula (P = 0.021) Among the mothers surveyed, 81.5% reported that their breastfeeding was affected by the earthquake; 41% cited issues related to privacy, while 27% faced challenges regarding shelter. Prior to the earthquake, 72% of infants were exclusively breastfed; however, this figure decreased as 81.5% of infants began receiving complementary foods alongside breast milk post-earthquake.<br /> Conclusion: The findings indicate that mothers breastfeeding self-efficacy is at a moderate level. Additionally, mothers reported alterations in their breastfeeding practices compared to the pre-earthquake period. These results underscore the importance of promoting breastfeeding in disaster-affected areas and highlight the critical role of midwives in supporting these efforts.<br />

    The Effect of Formative Assessment on Students' Clinical Knowledge, Skills and Self-Efficacy Levels
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Kokkiz, Rukiye; Inangil, Demet; Turkoglu, Ilayda
    Aim: This research aims to examine the effect of using formative assessment methods in clinical education on students' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy levels. Background: Formative assessment is used as a method designed to identify areas where students fall short and provide feedback for improvement. Formative assessment and feedback represent fundamental characteristics of quality teaching in higher education and play a decisive role in learning in nursing education. Although educators observe students performing practical tasks during clinical education, evaluation is not made by a structured control list. Therefore, just as nursing students are evaluated with "Skill Checklists" in the OSCE exam, there is a need to evaluate nursing skills during patient care in the clinical field. Design: The study was designed as a pre-test post-test randomized controlled experimental study. Method: Before the research, both groups filled out the self-efficacy form. The experimental group received formative assessment throughout the course. At the end of the semester, all students were given a skills test and asked to fill out the self-efficacy form again. Finally, a knowledge test was administered to the entire class. Results: The average knowledge score of the experimental group is higher than the control group. It was determined that there was a statistical difference of 16.54 points in the average skill scores between the groups. Posttests showed significant differences in skills such as breathing-cough exercise, basic glycemic measurement, subcutaneous injection and blood collection skills. Conclusion: It was determined that the formative assessment method increased nursing students' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy levels regarding basic nursing skills.

    The Effect of Education Given To Type 2 Diabetic Individuals on Diabetes Self-Management and Self-Efficacy: Randomized Controlled Trial
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021) Eroglu, Nermin; Sabuncu, Necmiye
    Aim: This study used a randomized controlled trial design and was carried out to examine the effect of education on diabetes self-management and self-efficacy in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: The study was carried out between July 2016-March 2017. Data were collected using information form, Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ), self-efficacy scale for patients with type 2 diabetes (DSS).The individuals in the experimental group were given education. Both groups were reminded about the control time of their metabolic values on the phone in the 3rd and 6th months. Results: The average age of the individuals was 59.91 +/- 8.93 (n = 78), 62.8% (n = 49) were female, 92.3% (n = 72), were married, 42.3% (n = 33) were high school graduates and their diabetes duration was 7.05 +/- 3.9. There was a statistically significant difference in the 6th month metabolic values in the experimental group compared to the control group. When diabetes self-management and self-efficacy were examined, a statistically significant difference was found in the experimental group compared to the control group at 3rd and 6th months (p < 0.05, p < 0.01). Conclusion: In this study, a significant increase in diabetes self-management and self-efficacy and a significant decrease in metabolic values were observed as a result of education and phone reminders given to individuals with type 2 diabetes.
