Popis: Introduction In order to promote self-care maintenance behavior in patients with heart failure (HF), it is necessary to identify the direct and indirect effects of major latent variables. Objective This study aimed to identify structural relationships between different domains of cognitive function, depression and self-care confidence, and self-care maintenance. Methods This descriptive study involved a secondary analysis using data of 201 patients with HF from two observational studies in three hospitals in Korea. The structural equation model using AMOS version 24.0 was constructed to assess the relationships among the variables. The Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery was used to assess global cognition, immediate/delayed memory, and executive function, and the Self-Care of HF Index v.6.2. was used for self-care confidence and maintenance. Results Self-care maintenance was affected by memory function with a significant direct effect (β=.43, p = .006), as well as self-care confidence (β=.70, p
