Self‐efficacy beliefs as key ingredients to healthy and sustainable lifestyles. A five‐year longitudinal study on diet and physical activity habits of newly diagnosed patients with acute coronary synd…
Cardiovascular diseases represent a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and an unhealthy lifestyle notoriously accounts for a large percentage of their risk. Identifying resources to stimulate lifestyle changes is an essential goal of primary and secondary cardiovascular prevention. Self‐efficacy beliefs are among the major psychological factors proven to impact health status and lifestyle. This study aimed to confirm the role…
Associations between Lifestyle Changes and Adherence to Covid-19 Restrictions in Older Adults with Hypertension
COVID-19 has changed people's routines and imposed new ways of living. This study investigated variations in lifestyles (namely, physical activity, diet, alcohol consumption, and cigarette smoking) between the prepandemic and the pandemic period in a sample of older adults with hypertension. Moreover, it investigated predictors of adherence to government restrictions during the first lockdown period, evidencing the role of relevant sociodemograph…
Sense of Coherence Predicts Physical Activity Maintenance and Health-Related Quality of Life
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. A physically active lifestyle can improve the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of people with CVD. Nevertheless, adherence to a physically active lifestyle is poor. This study examined the longitudinal (pre-event, 6-, 12-, 24-, and 36-month follow-ups) physical activity profiles in 275 patients (mean age = 57.1 years; SD = 7.87; 84% men) after the first a…
Impulsivity assessed ten years earlier and sociodemographic factors predict adherence to Covid-19 related behavioral restrictions in old individuals with hypertension
Our results demonstrate that impulsivity is a stable personality facet that can have a robust negative impact on adherence behaviors to health claims. Overall, results show the importance to tailor communication strategies that consider the role of sociodemographic indicators and impulsivity to achieve a high level of adherence
The TTCYB Study Protocol
This article describes the development of the "Time to Change Your Behavior" (TTCYB) study protocol, a theory-based, tailored print message intervention to improve compliance with the self-care regimen in patients with cardiovascular diseases. A design with a baseline measurement and two follow-ups at six and 12 months will be applied. At baseline and the six-month follow-up, patients will complete self-report questionnaires evaluating lifestyle …
What hypertensive patients want to know [and from whom] about their disease
The findings showed a general decrease in both the desire for information and the perceived relevance of different information sources. Hypertensive patients appeared to show little interest in health communication topics as their disease progressed. Understanding patients' information needs and the perceived relevance of different information sources is the first step in implementing tailored communication strategies that can promote patients' s…
Integration of base rates and new information in an abstract hypothesis‐testing task
In two studies, we investigated how people use base rates and the presence versus the absence of new information to judge which of two hypotheses is more likely. Participants were given problems based on two decks of cards printed with 0–4 letters. A table showed the relative frequencies of the letters on the cards within each deck. Participants were told the letters that were printed on or absent from a card the experimenter had drawn. Base rate…
