چکیده مقاله:
Background: Diabetes is an increasingly important public health concern. Self-care behaviors should be
improved to help diabetic patients better control the disease, highlighting the importance of understanding
the factors that affect a diabetic patient’s self-care behaviors. Therefore, the goal of the present study was to
determine factors related to self-care behaviors in patients with type ۲ diabetes (T۲D) using the protection
motivation theory (PMT).
Methods: In general, ۱۶۰ type ۲ diabetic patients referring to Yazd Diabetes Research Center were
randomly selected and included in this analytical cross-sectional study. The data were gathered by a
reliable and valid questionnaire, which is a summary of a multi-question questionnaire. It included PMT
constructs and demographic information through interviewing the patients. Finally, data were analyzed
using t test, ANOVA, linear regression, and Pearson correlation tests.
Results: The mean age of the patients and the mean self-care behaviors were ۵۵.۸۷ ± ۹.۶۲ years and
۳۷.۵۶ ± ۱۲.۹۴, respectively. In the regression model, perceived susceptibility (β = ۰.۲۹۴, P < ۰.۰۰۱) and
protection motivation (β = ۰.۲۴۷, P = ۰.۰۰۳) were significant predictors of diabetes self-care behaviors. This
model was able to explain ۲۰% of the variance of these behaviors.
Conclusion: PMT is effective in recognizing the determinants of diabetes self-care behaviors; therefore,
to increase patients’ motivation to adopt diabetes self-care behaviors, a framework similar to this theory
can be used to design educational programs. It is suggested that other studies in the field of self-care
be conducted with other educational models in different populations of patients, and their results be
compared accordingly.
