“…The Norwegian ASES‐11 is scored on a five‐point Likert scale ranging from 1 (very uncertain) to 5 (very certain). Scores are summarized for each scale, with higher scores representing a higher level of self‐efficacy (Garratt, Klokkerud, Lochting, & Hagen, ).…”

“…ASES is widely used in research within rheumatology and is found to have acceptable internal consistency and construct validity in two systematic reviews, but there is a lack of research on responsiveness (Banerjee et al, ; Miles, Pincus, Carnes, Taylor, & Underwood, ). In this study, we applied a recently validated Norwegian version of the ASES‐11 with a five‐point descriptive scaling that has not yet been tested for responsiveness (Garratt et al, ). Although responsiveness of ASES‐11 in this study was poor, we recommend ASES‐11 as a questionnaire to be used in the evaluation of PE for patients with IA.…”

“…Self‐efficacy was measured by the subscales for pain and other symptoms from the Arthritis Self‐Efficacy Scale (ASES) , ranging from 0–100, with higher scores representing higher levels of self‐efficacy. The measurement properties of the Norwegian version of the ASES have recently been tested, with good results in patients with rheumatic diseases undergoing rehabilitation .…”

“…A revised version of the Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale was used to measure self-efficacy to cope with pain (five items) and others symptoms (six items) [31,32]. In this scale, the respondent is asked about level of certainty in being able to undertake specific tasks (eg, decrease pain, continue daily activities, control fatigue, and do something to feel better).…”

Mobile App to Help People With Chronic Illness Reflect on Their Strengths: Formative Evaluation and Usability Testing

et al. 2020

Background Supporting patient engagement and empowerment is increasingly seen as essential in providing person-centered health care to people with chronic illness. Mobile apps helping patients reflect on their concerns as preparation for consultations with their health care providers can have beneficial effects on the consultation quality. However, apps focusing on empowerment and personal strengths are still scarce. Objective This study aimed to (1) develop a mobile app to support patients with rheumatic diseases in reflecting on their strengths in preparation for consultations with health care providers and (2) explore patients’ perceived usability of the app in a nonclinical test setting. Methods A prototype app was developed based on input from patients and health care providers, as reported in previous studies. The app was designed for use in self-management support settings aiming to promote awareness of strengths and to focus attention on strengths in the patient-health care provider dialogue. The features included in the prototype were as follows: (1) introduction to the topic of strengths, (2) list of examples of strengths to promote reflection and registration of own strengths, (3) summary of registered strengths, (4) value-based goal setting, (5) linking of strengths to goals, (6) summary of all registrations, and (7) options to share summary digitally or as a print version. In this study, the app was refined through a formative evaluation with patients and health care providers recruited from a specialized rheumatology hospital unit. Patients’ perceptions of the app’s usability were explored in a test setting with self-report measurements and semistructured interviews. The interviews were audiotaped, transcribed, and analyzed with directed content analysis. Data from questionnaires were analyzed with descriptive statistics. Results Developmental and formative evaluation included 18 patients and 7 health care providers. The evaluation resulted in minor adjustments to the prototype but no major changes in features. The usability testing included 12 patients. All participants found the usability acceptable; the median score on the System Usability Scale was 86.3 (range 70-100). All reported that it was meaningful and relevant to use the app. Out of 12 participants, 9 (75%) reported becoming more aware of their own strengths by using the app; 1 (8%) disagreed and 2 (17%) provided a neutral response. The results on the goal-related feature were mixed, with half of the patients finding it useful to link strengths to concrete goals. A statistically significant positive change from pre- to postintervention was identified on measures of self-efficacy and negative emotions. Conclusions In this formative evaluation of a mobile app to promote patients’ reflections on their strengths, patients perceived the app as meaningful and supporting awareness. The results suggest the usefulness of building in functionality to support use of strengths and goal attainment. Further studies on efficacy and usability in a clinical setting, including health care providers, are needed.

Rasch analysis of the Norwegian version of the Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES)

Abstract: The ASES had good fit to the Rasch model and correlations with other instrument scores that followed hypotheses, lending further support to the application of the instrument in patients with rheumatic diseases.
