Effects of social support on health-related behaviors in patients with chronic diseases:the cascading multi-mediating effects of e-health literacy and self-efficacy
Objective:To explore the relationship between social support and health-related behaviors in chronic disease patients,and the chain mediating effect of e-health literacy and self-efficacy.Methods:The general situation questionnaire,perceptive social support scale,e-health literacy scale,general self-efficacy scale and health promotion lifestyle scale were used to investigate the patients over 40 years old with chronic non-communicable diseases in urban and rural areas of Bengbu city.Results:The scores of social support and health-related behaviors of patients with chronic diseases were at a high level,and the scores of ehealth literacy and self-efficacy were at a medium level.Social support was positively correlated with ehealth literacy (r=0.30,P<0.01),self-efficacy (r=0.46,P<0.01),and health-related behaviors (r=0.63,P<0.01).The total effect value of social support and health-related behaviors was 0.0690,and the mediating effect value of e-health literacy between social support and health-related behaviors was 0.0464.The mediating effect value of e-health literacy and self-efficacy between social support and health-related behaviors was 0.0118.Conclusions:E-health literacy has a significant mediating effect between social support and health-related behaviors,and social support also affects the health-related behaviors of patients with chronic diseases in the chain mediating effect of e-health literacy and self-efficacy.
