Abstract

Introduction:
Among the interventions that help in the management of chronic diseases is improving the level of self-efficacy. Anemia caused by iron deficiency is a chronic disease that is common in teenage girls and leads to reduced productivity and physical strength, impaired concentration, reduced academic progress, and increased risk of other diseases. This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the family-centered empowerment model (FCEM) on the self-efficacy of mothers and adolescents with anemia.
 
Materials and Methods:
The present semi-experimental research was conducted by selecting 60 teenage girls with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) by random cluster sampling method in Tehran Province, Iran. Data collection was done using a demographic information profile, a 40-item adolescent self-efficacy questionnaire, and a 38-item mothers' self-efficacy questionnaire. The intervention was carried out in 3 stages during 6 sessions. After 1.5 months post-test was done. SPSS version 16 software was used for data analysis.
 
Results:
Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in the mean self-efficacy score of teenagers and mothers between the test and control groups (P>0.005). After the intervention, the difference between the two groups was significant(P<0.005). Also, there was a significant difference in the average self-efficacy scores of teenagers and mothers in the test group before and after the intervention (P<0.005).
 
Conclusions:
 A nursing intervention based on the Family-Centered Empowerment Model can be effective in improving the self-efficacy of mothers and adolescent girls with anemia. It is suggested to use this model in other age groups with different chronic diseases.
