Background & Aim: Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common chronic metabolic diseases, which requires special self-care behaviors until the end of life. Self-efficacy is the belief that a person has about his/her abilities to execute behaviors and behavioral outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between self-care and self-efficacy in type 2 diabetic patients referred to diabetes clinic in Gorgan.
Material and Methods: In a descriptive-correlational study, 100 participants were selected by simple random method among people with diabetes in 2014. the data were analyzed in SPSS 16 through descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation) and inferential statistics (linear regression and multi regression).
Results: Self-care and self-efficacy of the participants  were  17.73 ± 71.32, 18.7 ± 6.13, and both were moderate. There is a significant relationship between self-care with the sex (P=0.009), education (P=0.001), job (P=0.004) and access to information resources (P=0.004). Also, there was a significant relationship between self-efficacy and education (P=0.00), occupation (P=0.01), and access to educational resources (P=0.04). Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between self-care and self-efficacy (P<.001, OR=18).
Conclusion: Patients with higher self-efficacy feel like fewer barriers to self-care, and pay more attention to self-care activities. Therefore, health staff should pay more attention to the patient's self-efficacy, that reduces the complications of the disease which caused self-care behaviors among the pateints.
