Impact of Ruminative Thinking on Breathlessness Catastrophizing With Elderly COPD Patients: The Mediating Role of Self-Efficacy.
Background: It is extremely significant to explore the relationship between ruminative thinking and breathlessness catastrophizing among elderly COPD patients. However, the impact of self-efficacy on this relationship is still unclear. This study attempted to explore the mediating role of self-efficacy between ruminative thinking and breathlessness catastrophizing.
Design: A cross-sectional study was reported following the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines.
Methods: This study was conducted between 10 November 2024 and 25 January 2025, with 225 patients. Data were collected using the valid and reliable instruments, including the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS), the COPD Self-Efficacy Scale (CSES) and the Breathlessness Catastrophizing Scale (BCS). Additionally, IBM SPSS v28.0 software was used to explore the mediating effect.
Results: The scores for BCS of most patients were at moderate and high levels. Scores for the RRS and CSES were significantly correlated with the BCS. The analysis of the mediating effect demonstrated that ruminative thinking has a direct predictive effect on breathlessness catastrophizing. Additionally, ruminative thinking can also predict breathlessness catastrophizing indirectly through the mediation of self-efficacy. The direct effect accounted for 64.4% of the total effect.
Conclusion: This research revealed that self-efficacy played a partial mediating role in the relationship between ruminative thinking and breathlessness catastrophizing. Specifically, patients who were trapped in ruminative thinking were more likely to experience heightened breathlessness catastrophizing, but this relationship was mitigated by their level of self-efficacy.
Implications for the profession and/or patient care: This finding underscores the significant psychological burden that accompanies the physical symptoms of COPD in this demographic. It is imperative that nurses adopt a holistic approach in the management of elderly COPD patients.
Patient or public contribution: Voluntary patients with elderly COPD hospitalised in the pneumology department were included in the study.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Nursing (JCN) is an international, peer reviewed, scientific journal that seeks to promote the development and exchange of knowledge that is directly relevant to all spheres of nursing practice. The primary aim is to promote a high standard of clinically related scholarship which advances and supports the practice and discipline of nursing. The Journal also aims to promote the international exchange of ideas and experience that draws from the different cultures in which practice takes place. Further, JCN seeks to enrich insight into clinical need and the implications for nursing intervention and models of service delivery. Emphasis is placed on promoting critical debate on the art and science of nursing practice.
JCN is essential reading for anyone involved in nursing practice, whether clinicians, researchers, educators, managers, policy makers, or students. The development of clinical practice and the changing patterns of inter-professional working are also central to JCN''s scope of interest. Contributions are welcomed from other health professionals on issues that have a direct impact on nursing practice.
We publish high quality papers from across the methodological spectrum that make an important and novel contribution to the field of clinical nursing (regardless of where care is provided), and which demonstrate clinical application and international relevance.
