Stability in Cardiac Attributions Before and After Cardiac Rehabilitation.

CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac attributions remain relatively stable across time. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Cardiac rehabilitation staff should approach patients differently, depending on their causal narratives. Some patients enter CR understanding that behavior played a causal role, whereas some do not. Encouraging appreciation of the importance of behavior in cardiovascular disease onset and recurrence is vital. PMID: 30830885 [PubMed - in process]
