Abstract

Background: Asthma is one of the inflammatory and chronic respiratory diseases associated with clinical symptoms of wheezing, coughing, and dyspnea.
 
Objective: The present study investigated the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between perceived stress and social support with self-care among asthmatic patients.
 
Methods: This correlational study was conducted using structural equation modeling. The statistical population consisted of all asthmatic patients referring to the asthma clinic of Sayyad Shirazi Hospital in Gorgan, Iran, 2021. According to the observed variables (75 questions), 375 individuals were considered that were selected by the convenience sampling method. In the end, 368 complete questionnaires were analyzed. The research instruments were Connor-Davidson Resilience Questionnaire (2003), Standard Perceived Stress Scale (1983), Perceived Social Support Scale (1988), and Self-Care Behaviors Questionnaire (2001). The collected data were analyzed in AMOS.22 and SPSS.22 software using the path analysis method.
 
Results: The results of model analysis using fit indicators showed that the final model modified with the data had a good fit (root mean square error of approximation=0.069, goodness-of-fit index=0.91). Furthermore, the results of mediating role showed that resilience had a significant mediating role in the relationship between social support and perceived stress with self-care among asthmatic patients (P<0.01).
 
Conclusion: It can be concluded that resilience had a mediating role in the relationship between perceived stress and social support with self-care among asthmatic patients.
