... The Behavioural Weight Self-Regulation Questionnaire (BEWS-Q) was developed within this study from a review of self-regulation and body weight management research (Bandura, 1996;Carver & Scheier, 1982;Chambers & Swanson, 2012;Hernandez et al., 2016;Joki et al., 2017;Kanfer & Goldstein, 1986;McKee et al., 2013), and from free responses in qualitative studies. The scale was intended to measure self-regulation behaviours, and we posited four subscales: goalsetting, self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and taking action. ...

... Depending on the health condition, patients can become aware of relevant signals from the gut, heart, bladder, or other organs, and learn to engage in regulatory health behaviors. For example, those with diabetes can be taught to recognize changes in their blood sugar through changes in physical sensations, and know when to engage in behaviors to manage symptoms [98]. Interventions of interoception may potentially be integrated with computational modeling [5] to understand how interoceptive representations may be altered within specific clinical conditions. ...

... Important research efforts have contributed on further conceptualisation of self-management integration, by developed models that explain its trajectory by different phases and turning points. 57 58 Patients use strategy like developing self-awareness of the ways the body responds to certain stimuli or situations through trial and error [59][60][61] as well as constantly clarifying the information they receive. [62][63][64] This review identified one longitudinal study exploring different patterns of chronic illness selfmanagement. ...

... Lyytimäki andSipilä (2009), Taylor andStrutton (2010) and Wu et al. (2005) emphasise the importance of consumers' continued behaviour in the post adoption stage. According to available research (Hernandez, 2010b;Doolin et al., 2005;Ha and Stoel, 2009), attitude is essential to predict consumers' intention of online purchase as well as for the adoption of e-commerce in small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs). Individuals with first-hand knowledge of a phenomenon, like making an online purchase (Hernandez, 2010b), are more likely to retain this attitude (Fazio and Zanna, 1981). ...

... Ayrıca çalışma gruplarında vaka çalışmaları yoluyla da kendi hemşirelik felsefeleri üzerinde düşünmeleri istenmiştir. Yapılan bu faaliyetlerin öğrencilerde eleştirel düşünmeyi ve yansıtıcı klinik uygulamayı teşvik ettiği, hemşirelik teorilerinin özünü daha iyi kavramalarına yardımcı olduğu ve hemşirelik metaparadigmalarının öğretilmesinin mesleki değerlerin kazanılmasını artırdığı ifade edilmiştir (31). Hemşirelik eğitiminde metaparadigmaların ele alınması, öğrencilerin ya da meslek üyelerinin hemşireliğin temel kavramlarını bilmeleri, bütüncül bakım sağlayabilmeleri, eleştirel bakış açısı geliştirmeleri, klinik karar vermelerini desteklemek ve disiplinin profesyonel bir üyesi olmalarını sağlamak gibi birçok amaca hizmet ettiğinden büyük önem taşımaktadır. ...

... Patient education programmes such as body awareness therapy, which employ movements, breathing, massage, and awareness to try to restore balance, freedom, and unity of body and mind (Gard, 2005), have been explored for a variety of conditions including fibromyalgia, chronic pain, irritable bowel syndrome, and depression (Danielsson & Rosberg, 2015;Eriksson, Möller, Söderberg, Eriksson, & Kurlberg, 2007;Gard, 2005). With regard to diabetes, there are efforts to develop patient education programmes aimed at increasing patients' self-awareness, specifically through recognition of the symptoms that signify hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia for them (Hernandez, Bradish, Rodger, & Rybansky, 1999;Hernandez, Hume, & Rodger, 2008). ...

... The evidence has demonstrated that almost half of individuals with chronic diseases were not successful in adhering to their treatment regimens and showed weak adherence to medications and food restrictions (11). Generally, compliance with treatment in some chronic diseases is within the range of 40 -60% (12), which is reported as 59% in Iran (13). ...

... Public health professionals and workers need to be cognizant of the fact that Indigenous beliefs, customs and values are oft en rooted in the context of their oral history and traditions. Decision making related to their way of life, including those surrounding the concept of health and well-being, are oft en situational in nature and dependent on the values and norms of their extended family unit and/or community (Daniel et al. 1999;Ellerby et al. 2000;Hernandez et al. 1999;Young 2003;Young et al. 2000). Indeed, the family and its children are recognized as the cornerstone of various Indigenous communities (Hammersmith and Sawatsky 2000). ...

... Education Before-and-After. There were 20 studies in this category: 8 in unselected populations with T1D (4,21-27) and 12 in participants with IAH at baseline (9,(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38). Eight studies (22,23,24,26,29,30,33,34) were long-term, durations ranging between 1 and 3 years. ...

... Of 1700 abstracts screened, 18 studies published between 1991 and 2013 met the inclusion criteria, as illustrated in Fig. 1 [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36]. Most were published by research groups in North America and Canada (n = 10), five were from northwest Europe, two from Israel and one from Australia. ...
