  • Psychometric properties of the external Housing-Related Control Belief Questionnaire among people with Parkinson’s disease
    Aging Clinical and Experimental Research, 2020
    Co-Authors: Nilla Andersson, Maria H. Nilsson, Björn Slaug, Frank Oswald, Susanne Iwarsson
    Abstract:

    Background Housing-related Control Beliefs are associated with aspects of health among older people in general. Research on Parkinson’s disease (PD) focusing on perceptions of the home are rare and instruments capturing perceived aspects of home have seldom been used. Aims To evaluate psychometric properties of the external Housing-related Control Beliefs Questionnaire (HCQ) among people with PD. Methods The external HCQ were administrated to 245 participants with PD, (mean age = 69.9 years; mean PD duration = 9.7 years). External HCQ has 16-items, with five response options. The psychometric properties evaluated were data quality, structural validity (factor analysis), floor and ceiling effects, corrected item total correlations, internal consistency and construct validity (testing correlations with relevant constructs according to pre-defined hypotheses). Results Data quality was high. Structural validity showed a unidimensional construct with removal of two items. Homogeneity was questionable, but strengthened after the removal of the two items. For the 14-item version internal consistency was α = 0.78 and SEM 4.47. Corrected item total correlation ranged between 0.31 and 0.54 and no floor or ceiling effects. Significant correlations with relevant constructs supported the construct validity. Conclusions Taken together, the psychometric results suggest a 14-item version of the external HCQ to be sufficiently reliable and valid for use in the PD population. The results pave the way for further studies, using the HCQ to analyse how perceptions of Control of the home may be associated with health among people ageing with PD.

  • the role of self compassion and Control Belief about learning in university students self efficacy
    Journal of contextual behavioral science, 2016
    Co-Authors: Davood Manavipour, Yasser Saeedian
    Abstract:

    Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the prediction of self-efficacy on the basis of self-compassion and Control Belief about learning. Participants included 216 university students, who were selected by multistage cluster-random sampling method. The measures of this study were the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS), Control Belief about Learning, and Self-Efficacy subscales of the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ). Stepwise multiple regression revealed that while Control Belief about learning and mindfulness predicted self-efficacy positively, over-identification predicted self-efficacy negatively. Moreover, Control Belief about learning provided the largest contribution to predict self-efficacy. Correlations revealed that whilst self-kindness, common humanity, mindfulness, and Control Belief about learning correlated positively with self-efficacy, isolation and over-identification associated negatively with self-efficacy. Surprisingly, Control Belief about learning not only correlated positively with self-kindness, but also related positively to self-judgment. We postulated that a cultural difference such as self-improvement motivation, which is common in interdependent cultures, may contribute to the positive relationship between self-judgment and Control Belief about learning. Finally, the limitations and implications of these findings were also discussed.
