Abstract
Aim. The aim of the present study was to predict adjustment to the disease in patients with cardiovascular disease based on psychological well-being with the moderating role of health beliefs.
Introduction. Health beliefs are directly related to an individual's adaptation and behavior, and the outcome of this adaptation affects the patient's perception of disability and quality of life. Effective assessment and understanding of illness involves understanding the individual's ability to demonstrate adaptive behaviors and estimating their success in regulating symptoms of the disease, and subsequently, seeking psychological well-being.
Method. This was a descriptive correlational study. Three hundred patients with cardiovascular disease referring to Martyr Dr. Qolipour Medical Center in Bukan, Iran were recruited by purposive sampling. To collect the data, Health Beliefs Questionnaire, Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale, and Psychological Well-being scale were used. Inclusion criteria included cardiovascular disease, having at least a high school education, no acute physical illness other than cardiovascular disease, no acute mental illness, and willingness to participate in the study.
Findings. According to the results, in patients with cardiovascular disease, adjustment to the disease had a statistically significant positive relationship with psychological well-being and health beliefs (P≤0.01). Psychological well-being and health beliefs had the ability to predict adaptation to the disease, and health beliefs had a moderating role in the relationship between psychological well-being and adjustment to the disease.
Conclusion. In general, it can be concluded that in patients with cardiovascular disease, psychological well-being and health beliefs predict adjustment to the disease, and health beliefs can moderate the relationship between psychological well-being and adjustment to the disease.
