Description
Zhen-ni Luo and co-authors examine, in a 2024 survey study, how family health feeds confidence in people living with chronic disease. Self-efficacy, the belief that one can manage one's own care, predicts how well patients cope, and the family is where daily care happens.
More than five thousand Chinese patients answered standard scales on family health, self-belief, felt social support, and health literacy. Healthier families went with stronger self-belief. Felt support carried part of that effect, acting as the bridge. Health literacy changed the strength of the paths, helping some links and not others. The findings suggest programs should treat the family, not just the patient, as the unit of care.
