Perception of severity of disease and health locus of control in compliant and noncompliant diabetic patients
M Alogna
Compliant and noncompliant obese, non-insulin-dependent diabetic subjects
were assessed using a variety of demographic variables, the health locus of
control scale (HLC), and the perception of severity of disease index based
on the health belief model. The complaint subjects were significantly older
and viewed their illness as significantly more severe than the noncompliant
patients. Additionally, they tended to exhibit more of an internal locus of
control that the noncompliant patients.
