  • Title: Development and testing of a scale to measure self-efficacy for pelvic muscle exercises in women with urinary incontinence.
    Author: Broome BA.
    Journal: Urol Nurs; 1999 Dec; 19(4):258-68. PubMed ID: 10889770.
    Abstract:
    Previous research has demonstrated that pelvic muscles exercises can reduce or eliminate incontinence. Active patient participation is a key component; thus, a person's self-efficacy is important to successful outcomes. This methodologic study resulted in a 23-item scale incorporating ideas from self-efficacy theory. Psychometric analysis of reliability and validity were satisfactory.
