The purpose of this quasi-experimental research was to investigate the effects of the self-efficacy enhancing program on self-care behaviors of patients with cholangiocarcinoma using the of self-efficacy theory. The subjects were 34 patients with cholangiocarcinoma: 17 people in the control group and 17 people in the experimental group. The experimental group participated in the activities to enhance self-efficacy for 45-60 minutes/time for 8 consecutive weeks. The research tool was the self-efficacy enhancing program with 8 activities. Data were collected by a self-care behavior assessment form for patients with cholangiocarcinoma with the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.92. Data were analyzed by independent t-test and paired t-test. The findings were as follows. (1) The mean score of self-care behaviors of the patients with cholangiocarcinoma promoted with the self-efficacy enhancing program was significantly higher than that of those who did not receive the self-efficacy enhancing promotion at the .01 level. (2) The mean score of self-care behaviors of the patients with cholangiocarcinoma after being promoted with the self-efficacy enhancing program was significantly higher than that of before receiving the program at the .01 level. The results of the study can be used as the guidelines for enhancing self-care behavior of patients with cholangiocarcinoma to have better quality of life.
