Methods: A quasi-experiment, this study recruited 208 and 421 patients with type II diabetes in the shared care and regular care groups, respectively, at a 1:2 ratio, matched by gender and age. HbAlc levels were measured and survey data about diabetes-related health behaviors and health beliefs were collected at both pre-test and 6-month post-test. Results: Multivariate linear autoregression analysis indicated that patients in the shared care group had significantly lower HbAlc levels (?=-0.18) than did those in the regular care group at post-test. Similarly, patients in the shared care group had significantly higher health behavior scores (?=0.13) than did their regular care counterparts at post-test. In the shared care group, increased health behavior scores at post-test were directly related to elevated levels of perceived benefits (?=0.29) and cues to action (?=0.15). By contrast, in the regular care group, increased health behavior scores at post-test were positively associated with increased levels of perceived susceptibility (?=0.13) and perceived benefits (?=0.19), as well as decreased levels of perceived barriers (?=-0.16) and cues to action (?=-0.12). Conclusions: Compared with diabetic patients in the regular care group, those in the shared care group had better HbAlc control and changes in health behaviors. The diabetes-related health behavior changes could be attributed to different changes in health beliefs in the two groups. These findings could inform future interventions to improve diabetes care. |
