Summary

This study validated the Cardiac Diet Self-Efficacy Instrument (CDSEI) and Cardiac Exercise Self-Efficacy Instrument (CESEI). These reliable and valid measures can predict cardiac rehabilitation patients' health behaviors.

Area of Science:

  • Health psychology
  • Behavioral medicine
  • Cardiology

Background:

  • Self-efficacy is a key predictor of health behaviors.
  • Validated measures for cardiac risk factor self-efficacy are limited.
  • Accurate assessment tools are crucial for effective interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To validate the Cardiac Diet Self-Efficacy Instrument (CDSEI).
  • To validate the Cardiac Exercise Self-Efficacy Instrument (CESEI).
  • To assess the reliability and validity of these instruments for cardiac patients.

Main Methods:

  • Principal factor analyses were used to assess the unidimensionality of the CDSEI and CESEI.
  • Known groups construct validity was examined by comparing scores between cardiac rehabilitation participants and marathon runners.

  • The predictive value of the instruments was tested in a separate group of cardiac rehabilitation participants.

    • Main Results:

    • Factor analyses supported the unidimensionality of both the CDSEI and CESEI.
    • Validity was demonstrated through comparisons with a distinct population (marathon runners).
    • The instruments effectively predicted subsequent diet and exercise behaviors in cardiac patients.

    Conclusions:

    • The CDSEI and CESEI are reliable and valid instruments for measuring self-efficacy in cardiac patients.
    • These validated tools can aid in assessing and improving cardiac risk factor management.
    • The findings support the use of CDSEI and CESEI in clinical and research settings for cardiac rehabilitation.
