Self-efficacy Mediates the Relationship between Balance/Walking Performance, Activity, and Participation after Stroke.

CONCLUSION: These results suggest that SE mediates the relationship between PB and activity and participation after stroke, reinforcing that improving activity and participation is more complicated than only targeting performance. Clinicians should administer SE and PB measures to determine the most accurate view of patients after stroke and seek to improve SE through interventions.
