Adaptation to Chronic Illness and Disability and Its Relationship to Perceptions of Independence and Dependence
Abstract
This study extends research on living with chronic physical illness and disability by examining how adaptation processes are associated with different activity domains and how the combination of adaptations and activity domains relate to older adults' perceptions of their independence and dependence, helplessness, emotional reactivity, and coping efficacy. The study investigated the behavioral efforts that 286 older adults with osteoarthritis and/or osteoporosis used to adapt to disability arising from their condition. The findings revealed that adults used a wide range of adaptations, including compensations for loss, optimizing performance, limiting or restricting activities, and gaining help from others. The relative use of each of these adaptations varied across 5 domains of activity: personal care, in-home mobility, community mobility, household activities, and valued activities. Moreover, older adults' perceptions of their independence, dependence, helplessness, emotional reactivity, and coping efficacy varied depending on the domain of activity examined and the type of adaptation used.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
