Self-efficacy as a mediator of the relationship between pain and disability in chronic pain patients: a narrative review
Abstrak
Abstract Self-efficacy is an important indicator of psychological wellness, devoted to prescribed medications, along with pain-coping strategies in individuals who have chronic pain, a psychological concept described as one’s confidence in performing a specific activity. Poor self-efficacy is an impediment to rehabilitation and predicts long-term impairment. Higher self-efficacy can improve function and prolong physical well-being in people who have chronic pain. Recent findings show that coping mechanisms play a major role in chronic pain adaptation. SE beliefs are a significant determinant of coping habits. This article reviews the theory of SE, the importance of application of SE in treating chronic pain and disability.
