Stroke self-management and the role of self-efficacy.
Conclusions: Engagement in a stroke-specific self-management program can improve client-perceived occupational performance and satisfaction. Self-efficacy was shown to be a mediating variable to occupational performance improvements. Future research should explore further the facilitatory strategies of self-efficacy during stroke self-management programs to maximize rehabilitation outcomes. Implications for rehabilitation Multi-modal self-management programs are recommended as effective for improving client-perceived occupational performance of people who have experienced stroke. Returning to valued occupations, goal setting, shared experiences, and local support are recommended components of a self-management program for stroke survivors. Focusing on enhancing client confidence, competence, and self-efficacy is recommended to achieve occupational performance gains through self-management. Occupational therapy coaching is recommended to guide participants through the self-management processes of goal-setting, shared problem-solving, performance evaluation, and reflection.
