“…Consequently, the results of this study, showing a significant improvement in self-efficacy during rehabilitation, are rather remarkable. Only a few other studies have assessed perceptions of personal control in patients with COPD [15,[52][53][54][55] and, therefore, this study contributes to the existing literature.…”

“…En estudios desarrollados con pacientes de EPOC se ha encontrado que la sensación de control y autoefi cacia ha sido relacionada como una forma de mejorar la adaptación (Taylor, 2007). En otros estudios se ha hallado que aquellos pacientes de EPOC con altas expectativas de autoefi cacia sobrevivieron por más tiempo que aquellos sin esas expectativas, estos resultados sugieren fuertemente que cuando una enfermedad es percibida como modifi cable y bajo el control personal, el proceso de recuperación de las enfermedades crónicas es más favorable en el tiempo (Kohler, Fish, & Greene, 2002). En defi nitiva, las creencias de control pueden llevar a individuos enfermos a poner en práctica conductas más saludables, a conseguir niveles más altos de adherencia al tratamiento y en alcanzar una mejor calidad de vida (Beneit & Latorre, 1994;Marks et al, 2008).…”

ResumenEl objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar las relaciones entre resiliencia, percepción de enfermedad, creencias y afrontamiento espiritual-religioso sobre la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud en 40 pacientes con diagnóstico de enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica de la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia. Instrumentos: escala de resiliencia RS, escala de resiliencia breve CD-RISC2, cuestionario breve de percepción de enfermedad IPQ-B, inventario de sistema de creencias SBI-15R, escala estrategias de afrontamiento espirituales SCS y cuestionario de salud MOS SF-36. A nivel de resultados hubo correlaciones positivas entre resiliencia y salud mental, y en el análisis de regresión lineal el control personal y las consecuencias de percepción de enfermedad tuvieron un peso signifi cativo sobre el índice sumario mental de calidad de vida. En conclusión, la salud mental en crisis agudas se ve alterada por la preocupación en las consecuencias físicas, sociales, económicas y emocionales que acarrea la enfermedad, y el control personal y la resiliencia son variables que promueven la regulación emocional en pacientes con EPOC.Palabras clave: Resiliencia, percepción de enfermedad, espiritualidad, calidad de vida, EPOC. AbstractThe purpose of this research was to evaluate the relationship of the resilience, illness perception, beliefs and spiritual-religious coping on health-related quality of life in 40 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease diagnosis from the city of Medellín, Colombia.

To level results there were positive correlations between resilience and mental health and multiple linear regression analysis personal control and consequences of illness perception had signifi cant weight on the summary mental index of the quality of life.

“…For Latinas awaiting GCRA who will be presented with a variety of risk-reducing strategies, a sense of confidence in being able to execute the recommendations is pertinent. High self-efficacy has been linked to numerous positive outcomes, such as breast self-examination (BSE) self-efficacy beliefs and higher levels of BSE adherence [36][37][38][39][40][41]. A few ethnic minority studies have also identified self-efficacy as playing an important role in healthy risk-reducing behaviors [42][43][44][45].…”

Objectives: As Latinos are a growing ethnic group in the United States, it is important to understand the socio-cultural factors that may be associated with cancer screening and prevention in this population. The socio-cultural factors that may affect preparedness to undergo genetic cancer risk assessment (GCRA) deserve particular attention. The pre-GCRA period can provide insight into variables that may influence how medically underserved Latinas, with limited health resources and access, understand hereditary cancer information and subsequently implement cancer risk management recommendations. This study explores social, cognitive and cultural variables in Latinas prior to undergoing GCRA.Methods: The study sample consisted of low-income, underserved Latinas referred for GCRA because of a personal and/or family history of breast or ovarian cancer. Acculturation, cancer-specific fatalism, self-efficacy and social support were assessed prior to GCRA.Results: Fifty Latinas (mean age 5 40.177.7) completed instruments; 86% had invasive cancer, 78% spoke primarily Spanish and 61% were of Mexican ancestry. Low levels of acculturation (n 5 50, mean 5 9.075.8) and cancer-specific fatalism (n 5 43, mean 5 5.673.2), but relatively high self-efficacy (n 5 49, mean 5 40.977.8) and social support (n 5 49, mean 5 37.378.7) were reported. Cancer-specific fatalism and self-efficacy were inversely correlated (r 5 À0.47, p 5 0.002). Those over age 38 at the time of cancer diagnosis reported higher acculturation (mean 5 11.477.2, p 5 0.02) and social support (mean 5 40.571.2, p 5 0.05).Conclusions: These findings suggest that medically underserved Latinas may already possess some of the necessary skills to successfully approach the GCRA process, but that special attention should be given to cultural factors.
