Abstract: Objective To explore the mediating effects of general self-efficacy in the relationship among activity of daily life, social support and loneliness in rural elderly. Methods Objects were chosen with multi-stage stratified random sampling and surveyed with Activity of Daily Living Scale(ADL), Loneliness Scale(ULS-6), General Self-efficacy Scale(GSES)and a self-developed questionnaire. Data were analyzed with SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 21.0. Results Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that activity of daily life and social support were negatively correlated with general self-efficacy(r=-0.265, rD1=-0.206, rD2=-0.221, P<0.001), but positively correlated with loneliness(r=0.142, rD1=0.173, rD2=0.187, P<0.001); general self-efficacy was negatively correlated with loneliness(r=-0.240, P<0.001). The mediating effect model showed that general self-efficacy had a significant mediating effect on activity of daily life and loneliness(95%CI:0.029-0.047), and the proportion of mediating effect was 33.33%; general self-efficacy had a significant mediating effect on social support and loneliness(95%CI: 0.034-0.054), and the proportion of 山 东 大 学 学 报 (医 学 版)58卷1期 -景翔,等.农村老年人日常活动能力、社会支持与孤独感的关系:一般自我效能的中介作用 \=-mediating effect was 14.81%. Conclusion General self-efficacy has mediating effects on activity of daily life, social support and loneliness among rural elderly.
