Add to My Toolkit
Description

The Sickle Cell Disease Self-Efficacy Scale is a nine-item self-administered questionnaire that measures disease-specific perceptions of the ability to manage day-to-day issues resulting from sickle cell disease (SCD). Items are scores according to a five-point scale ranging from "1 - Not sure at all" to "5 - Very sure." Responses from individual items are summed to give an overall score with higher scores indicating greater self-efficacy.
