عنوان انگلیسی The role of self-efficacy beliefs in psychological symptoms andclinical outcomes of primary chronic headache
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله Background: Headache is one of the common complaints of referral patients. The prevalence of symptoms of depression and anxiety in patients with headache is significant. The previous researches have suggested the role of self-efficacy of pain in modifying psychological symptoms and improving clinical outcomes. Objective: To investigate the role of self-efficacy beliefs of pain in psychiatric symptoms and clinical outcomes of chronic headache patients. Methods and material: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 106 patients with chronic primary headache who were referred to neurology clinics of Guilan University of Medical Sciences from September 2016, to March 2017. The sampling method was successive. Patients responded to questions of pain self-efficacy beliefs scales, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Data were analyzed by independent t-student method, Mann-Whitney U, Pearson correlation coefficient and Spearman and multivariate hierarchical regression. Results: The results of Pearson correlation coefficient showed that there is a reverse and significant relationship between pain self-efficacy beliefs and pain severity(r=-0.25, P=0.009). In regression analysis, after controlling demographic variables, self-efficacy beliefs were able to predict the pain severity scale (F=4.570, P=0.035) and anxiety (F=4.414, P=0.038). There was also a significant non-linear quadratic correlation between the severity of pain with headache frequency (F=3.377, P=0.038).   Conclusion: Self-efficacy beliefs are more correlated with the reduction of the severity of pain in chronic headache and can predict it. It seems that these types of beliefs can play a protective role against anxiety and headache frequency in patients with chronic headache.
