Abstract (1066 Views)
Aims: A healthy lifestyle is a crucial modifiable risk factor in breast cancer prevention. This study aimed to identify predictors of health-promoting behaviors based on the self-regulation model among breast cancer patients in northern Iran.
Instrument & Methods: This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in 2021 involving 260 breast cancer patients. A questionnaire assessed demographic characteristics, disease status, psychosocial factors related to the self-regulation model, health-promoting behaviors, and patients’ attitudes toward their health. Data were analyzed using correlation coefficients and multivariate linear regression.
Findings: The average age of participants was 52.6±10.6 years. A direct correlation was found between perceived treatment effectiveness and all domains of health-promoting behaviors. The multivariate regression model indicated that perceived treatment effectiveness significantly predicted health-promoting behaviors, including a healthy diet (β=0.20, p=0.016), vitamin consumption (β=0.21, p = 0.002), and performing mammography (β=-0.26, p=0.001).
Conclusion: Perceived treatment effectiveness is closely linked to enhanced health-promoting behaviors.
