Key result
The Cardiac Rehabilitation Inventory reliably measured outcome anxiety, process anxiety, and autonomy, with outcome anxiety being a strong predictor of CR intentions (r = 0.716).
Why the study?
Does the Cardiac Rehabilitation Inventory reliably measure factors related to cardiac rehabilitation engagement in phase III and IV CR patients?
Population

Does the Cardiac Rehabilitation Inventory reliably measure factors related to cardiac rehabilitation engagement in phase III and IV CR patients?
The Cardiac Rehabilitation Inventory is a reliable tool for measuring outcome anxiety, process anxiety, and autonomy to help tailor support for cardiac rehabilitation patients.
Micklewright et al. (2015) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiac rehabilitation (n=380). Cardiac Rehabilitation Inventory (CRI) was evaluated on Identification of salient CR engagement factors and validation of the CRI model. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Inventory reliably measured outcome anxiety, process anxiety, and autonomy, with outcome anxiety being a strong predictor of CR intentions (r = 0.716).
