TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize basic empirical themes from studies of adherence to medical regimens and propose a self-regulatory model for conceptualizing the adherence process, which posits that self-regulation is a function of the representation of health threats and the targets for ongoing coping (symptom reduction, temporal expectancies for change).

Abstract: We summarize basic empirical themes from studies of adherence to medical regimens and propose a self-regulatory model for conceptualizing the adherence process The model posits that self-regulation is a function of the representation of health threats and the targets for ongoing coping (symptom reduction, temporal expectancies for change) set by the representation, the procedures to regulate these targets, and the appraisal of coping outcomes The underlying cognitive mechanism is assumed to function at both a concrete (symptom-based schemata) and abstract level (disease labels), and individuals often engage in biased testing while attempting to establish a coherent representation of a health threat It also is postulated that cognitive and emotional processes form partially independent processing systems The coherence of the system, or the common-sense integration of its parts, is seen as crucial for the maintenance of behavioral change The coherence concept is emphasized in examples applying the model to panic and hypochondriacal disorders

The drugs or the disease? Causal attributions of symptoms held by HIV-positive adults on HAART.
TL;DR: In a cross-sectional interview study, a convenience sample of 109 HIV-positive adults taking highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) were interviewed using a combination of self- and interviewer-administered measures of quality of life, physical problem checklists, and side effect and HIV-related symptom attribution assessments as mentioned in this paper.

The utility of systems models of stress and coping for applied research: the case of cancer adaptation.
TL;DR: The case is made for a more microanalytic strategy for applied coping research that, by centering attention and available resources on selected high-frequency, high-stress problems, permits more conceptually sophisticated and clinically informative analyses.

Patients' and neurologists' perception of epilepsy and psychogenic nonepileptic seizures.
TL;DR: Differences in illness perceptions between neurologists and patients with epilepsy or psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are likely to be clinically relevant, but this is the first study to attempt a direct comparison.

Patient experience of hypoglycaemia unawareness in Type 1 diabetes: are patients appropriately concerned?
TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative analysis of patient interviews identified deficits in education, technology and motivation in hypoglycaemia unawareness, and a questionnaire was devised from the qualitative analysis to identify patients with problematic beliefs about their hypoglycemia.

Self-efficacy: toward a unifying theory of behavioral change.
TL;DR: An integrative theoretical framework to explain and to predict psychological changes achieved by different modes of treatment is presented and findings are reported from microanalyses of enactive, vicarious, and emotive mode of treatment that support the hypothesized relationship between perceived self-efficacy and behavioral changes.
