PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the uncertainty mediates relationship between rehabilitation motivation and social support. METHODS Participants were 123 adults patients diagnosed as stroke in a hospital located in a Metropolitan City. Data were collected by self-administered questionnaires measuring uncertainty, family support and medical team support as social support, rehabilitation motivation. Data were analyzed using t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression analyses. The significance of mediating effect was analyzed by Sobel test. RESULTS Family support and uncertainty, respectively, were influential on rehabilitation motivation (β=.39, p < .001, β=-.18, p=.011). Uncertainty showed partial mediating effect on relationship between family support and rehabilitation motivation, however, the effect was not significant (Z=1.63, p=.103). CONCLUSION Interventions improving family support and decreasing uncertainty may be helpful in enhancing rehabilitation motivation. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
