Abstract
Aims: It was aimed at determining the relationship between chronic disease self-management and health locus of control in diabetic patients. Methods: Data were collected by the face-to-face survey method from diabetic patients over the age of 18 who were receiving inpatient treatment in a public hospital. Results: According to the research results; The total score average of the participants from the chronic disease self-management scale was moderate (mean: 64.11 Min: 21-Max: 105), w but treatment compliance (mean:15.81 Min:5-Max:25) ) was found to be at a medium level. The participants' internal locus of control score (mean: 25.08, Min: 9-Max: 36) was found to be higher than other sub-dimensions. As a result of the correlation analyses carried out; statistically significant relationships were obtained between chronic disease self-management total and sub-dimensions and health locus of control sub-dimensions. Conclusion: Statistically significant relationships were obtained between the chronic disease self-management total and sub-dimensions and the health locus of control sub-dimensions. It can be said that the participants have more internal locus of control beliefs.
