Key result
Self-efficacy scores were moderately correlated with physical activity participation in children with congenital heart disease (r = 0.47; p < 0.001).
Why the study?

Physical activity remains low in CHD youth despite self-efficacy matching healthy peers; leaves open prospective studies on other barriers.

Is there a relationship between self-efficacy and physical activity in children with congenital heart disease?
Effect estimate: r = 0.47
p-value: p=<0.001
Self-efficacy is moderately correlated with physical activity in children with congenital heart disease, suggesting interventions targeting self-efficacy may help increase physical activity in this population.
Ray et al. (2011) conducted a cross-sectional in Congenital heart disease (n=84). Self-efficacy was evaluated on Correlation between self-efficacy and physical activity participation (r = 0.47, p=<0.001). Self-efficacy scores were moderately correlated with physical activity participation in children with congenital heart disease (r = 0.47; p < 0.001).
