- Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the self‐management of depression among members of a Chinese community. Design and Methods: A cross‐sectional survey was conducted in Wuhan. The Depression Prevention and Management Survey was used to identify 429 participants' stage of change, perceived benefits, process of change and self‐efficacy, based on the transtheoretical model perspective. Findings: A majority of participants (69.0%) were at the inactive stage of depression self‐management. The mean score of the process of change was 87.62 (SD = 24.83). ANOVA analysis showed gender, education, and family function were significant influencing factors in the process of change. Practice Implications: Mental health nurses need to target their approach to the level of the individual based on the transtheoretical model to assist them to enhance their awareness and motivation. More consideration should be given to gender, education, and family function in the context of depression self‐management.
