“…Negative religious coping has been associated with poorer health outcomes in other studies (33)(34)(35). In our present study, we also found that religious coping styles that were more negative were associated with worse adherence (33)(34)(35). However, what was unexpected was that superadherent parents reported using negative religious coping more frequently than high-adherent parents did.…”

Adherence Determinants in Cystic Fibrosis: Cluster Analysis of Parental Psychosocial, Religious, and/or Spiritual Factors

et al. 2015

Rationale: Cystic fibrosis is a progressive disease requiring a complex, time-consuming treatment regimen. Nonadherence may contribute to an acceleration of the disease process. Spirituality influences some parental healthcare behaviors and medical decision-making. Objectives:We hypothesized that parents of children with cystic fibrosis, when classified into groups based on adherence rates, would share certain psychosocial and religious and/or spiritual variables distinguishing them from other adherence groups.Methods: We conducted a multisite, prospective, observational study focused on parents of children younger than 13 years old at two cystic fibrosis center sites (Site 1, n = 83; Site 2, n = 59). Religious and/or spiritual constructs, depression, and marital adjustment were measured by using previously validated questionnaires. Determinants of adherence included parental attitude toward treatment, perceived behavioral norms, motivation, and self-efficacy. Adherence patterns were measured with the Daily Phone Diary, a validated instrument used to collect adherence data. Cluster analysis identified discrete adherence patterns, including parents' completion of more treatments than prescribed.Measurements and Main Results: For airway clearance therapy, four adherence groups were identified: median adherence rates of 23%, 52%, 77%, and 120%. These four groups differed significantly for parental depression, sanctification of their child's body, and self-efficacy. Three adherence groups were identified for nebulized medications: median adherence rates of 35%, 82%, and 130%. These three groups differed significantly for sanctification of their child's body and self-efficacy. Conclusions:Our results indicated that parents in each group shared psychosocial and religious and/or spiritual factors that differentiated them. Therefore, conversations about adherence likely should be tailored to baseline adherence patterns. Development of efficacious religious and/or spiritual interventions that promote adherence by caregivers of children with cystic fibrosis may be useful.

“…However, Hojjati et al (2010) have stated that the majority of hemodialysis patients in their study were highly spiritual and had religious affiliation (35). Moreover, in another study on patients with cancer, high religious tendencies were reported (36). The difference between the mentioned studies may be due to cultural differences of patients, different treatment methods, type of cancer, and the environment of the research.…”

“…However, the acceptance of suffering and the use of faith decreased anxiety in these patients. (18) In another study, the anxiety level assessed by the Trait Anxiety Inventory-State Scale was correlated with the religiousness of Personal and Rotterdam Symptom Checklist in 180 women with breast cancer. (19) The results showed that: religiosity is a factor for effectively coping and dealing with the anxiety of patients with terminal breast cancer, the stage of cancer is a differentiating factor compared to levels of anxiety revealed in the subjects studied; exacerbation of somatic symptoms did not influence the level of anxiety in terminal cancer patients and diseases without period.…”
