Abstract
Aims: This study aimed to develop a structural model to elucidate the contributions of social support, health literacy and psychological resilience to self-management behaviours in liver transplant recipients after surgery.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Methods: This study included 215 Chinese patients who returned to the outpatient department after liver transplantation between June 2023 and March 2024. Data were collected via a general demographic questionnaire, a self-management questionnaire for liver transplant recipients, a chronic disease resource questionnaire, the Connor-Davidson resilience scale and the health literacy scale for chronic patients. Correlation analysis and structural equation modelling were utilised to analyse the relationships among social support, health literacy, psychological resilience and self-management ability.
Results: The final model showed good fit (χ2/df = 1.690, GFI = 0.919, IFI = 0.951, TLI = 0.938, CFI = 0.950 and RMSEA = 0.057). The direct effect coefficient of social support on self-management ability is 0.293. The indirect effect value of health literacy on the relationship between social support and self-management ability was 0.312, whereas the indirect effect value of psychological resilience in this context was 0.096. Furthermore, the chain-mediating effect involving both health literacy and psychological resilience between social support and self-management ability was 0.109.
Conclusion: The revised model, grounded in social cognitive theory, demonstrated a strong fit for predicting self-management behaviours among liver transplant recipients. Furthermore, social support, health literacy and psychological resilience exerted both direct and indirect influences on the self-management behaviours of these recipients.
Reporting method: Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE).
Patient or public contribution: In public or patient involvement in this study.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Clinical Nursing (JCN) is an international, peer reviewed, scientific journal that seeks to promote the development and exchange of knowledge that is directly relevant to all spheres of nursing practice. The primary aim is to promote a high standard of clinically related scholarship which advances and supports the practice and discipline of nursing. The Journal also aims to promote the international exchange of ideas and experience that draws from the different cultures in which practice takes place. Further, JCN seeks to enrich insight into clinical need and the implications for nursing intervention and models of service delivery. Emphasis is placed on promoting critical debate on the art and science of nursing practice.
JCN is essential reading for anyone involved in nursing practice, whether clinicians, researchers, educators, managers, policy makers, or students. The development of clinical practice and the changing patterns of inter-professional working are also central to JCN''s scope of interest. Contributions are welcomed from other health professionals on issues that have a direct impact on nursing practice.
We publish high quality papers from across the methodological spectrum that make an important and novel contribution to the field of clinical nursing (regardless of where care is provided), and which demonstrate clinical application and international relevance.
