Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

"Evaluation of psychosocial adjustment of asthmatic individuals after education with the Psychosocial Adjustment To Illness-Self-Report Scale (PAIS-SR)".

Patient Introduction Form This form was prepared by the researcher in line with the literature and consists of 12 questions to determine patient and disease characteristics. Psychosocial Adaptation to Illness-Self-Report Scale (PAIS-SR) Psychosocial Adaptation to Illness-Self-Report Scale (PAIS-SR) The Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness - Self-Report Scale was developed by Derogatis in 1986 to assess psychosocial adjustment to illness. The scale consists of 7 sub-dimensions and a total of 46 questions. Scores that can be obtained from the scale vary between "0 - 138". Scores below 35 indicate "good psychosocial adjustment", scores between 35 and 51 indicate moderately "good psychosocial adjustment", and scores above 51 indicate "poor psychosocial adjustment". In the original version of the scale, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found to be 0.86.

Time frame

"Evaluation of the quality of life of asthmatic individuals after education with the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ)".

Patient Introduction Form This form was prepared by the researcher in line with the literature and consists of 12 questions to determine patient and disease characteristics. Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) The Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) is an asthma-specific quality of life scale consisting of 32 questions and 4 subscales developed by Juniper et al. The scale is a 7-point Likert-type scale with "1" representing the lowest and "7" the highest score. The total score of the scale ranges from 32 to 224 and the mean score ranges from 1 to 7. Overall quality of life is calculated by summing and averaging the relevant domain values of all questions and sub-dimensions. An increase in the mean value of the overall and sub-dimensions of the scale increases the quality of life. It was found that the Cronbach alpha coefficients of the sub-dimensions of the scale ranged between 0.81-0.87
