The theoretical framework of the study was Leventhal's Common</p><p>Sense Model of Self-regulation of Health and Illness (1984). The Illness representations, coping</p><p>and quality of life were assessed by the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-R), Brief</p><p>COPE and Short Form 12-ltem Health Survey Questionnaire v2 (SF-l 2v2) respectively. One hundred and</p><p>four patients undergoing haemodialysis (79 males and 25 females) participated in the study based on</p><p>purposive and convenience sampling. The analyses supported Hypothesis One but failed to support</p><p>Hypothesis Two. The results indicate</p><p>that perceived consequences (r = -0.365, p < 0.0 I), illness coherence (r = 0.203, p <</p><p>0.0 l) and emotional representation (r = -0.317, p < 0.01) were found to have</p><p>significant relationship with quality of life. However, adaptive coping did not mediate perceived</p><p>consequences and physical component summary (PCS) of quality of life in the present sample. The</p><p>results suggest the importance of patients' representations of illness in their mental and physical</p><p>health. Psychological assessment is proposed to be part of the patients' treatment protocol. Any</p><p>development programmes in educating patients or care takers such as families, nurses, physicians</p><p>and others would need to take into account patients' own representations of the end-stage renal</p><p>disease (ESRD).</p><p></p> 2012 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=13238 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=13238 text eng N/A openAccess Masters Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun Fakulti Pembangunan Manusia N/A
