Relationship Between Autonomous Motivation for Dietary Self-Care Behaviors and Quality of Life in People with Type 2 Diabetes: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach
Cross-sectional analysis reveals a positive link between autonomous motivation and quality of life in those with type 2 diabetes, suggesting dietary interventions may help.
Key Points
Autonomous motivation for dietary self-care behaviors positively impacts overall quality of life.
Participants demonstrated improved dietary self-care behaviors, enhancing their quality of life.
Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze relationships between variables in the study.
Future research should validate the model with independent samples to confirm findings.
