Structural equation model of adherence as a function of negative beliefs toward medications and background variables.

Notes: χ² = 68.319 (df = 36, n = 783; p = 0.001), CFI = 0.981, RMSEA = 0.034, and SRMR = 0.026. All paths are statistically significant at p < 0.05. Paths representing effects of background variables are drawn in thinner lines. Illness severity = z-score of comorbidity + z-score of number of medications.

Abbreviations: BG, belief-general; SS, sensitive soma; MA, medication adherence; RMSEA, root mean square error of approximation; CFI, comparative fit index; SRMR, standardized root mean square residual.
