Results: The patients were male (53.8%), and 45.4% were older than 70. The Stress Reduction subscale of the selfefficacy scale score was 29.95 ± 11.99, the Making Decision subscale score was 8.90 ± 3.62, and the Positive Attitude subscale score was 49.73 ± 18.92. The self-efficacy scale score was 88.58 ± 33.80. Perception of selfefficacy was moderate in individuals with chronic disease. Physical Role, General Health, and Bodily Pain subdimensions were the most negatively affected. Physical Functioning, Social Functioning, and Energy dimensions were moderately affected. Analysis revealed a positive correlation between self-efficacy scale total scores and SF-36 Quality of Life Scale scores (r = 0.45-0.99, p = 0.000).
