Abstract
BACKGROUND: The self-efficacy of educators plays a crucial role in their professional competence and subsequent provision of care. The present study aims to explain the main sources contributing to the development of self-efficacy beliefs among healthcare providers in delivering health education. METHODS: This qualitative study was conducted from 2015 to 2016 in various settings of Isfahan such as hospitals, doctor's offices, and healthcare centers. Twenty three health educators with an average of 10-year work experience in healthcare participated in the study. Data were collected using semi-structured in-depth individual interviews and were analyzed through conventional content analysis. Prolonged engagement with the participants, maximum variation in the participants' characteristics, sampling, and member check were among the factors enriching the research. RESULTS: The six main categories extracted during data analysis included: 1) Quantity and quality of their experience; 2) Encountering unexpected events; 3) Client trust; 4) Self-concept; 5) Professional knowledge and skill; 6) Vicarious experiences. CONCLUSIONS: The study results show two new findings, including "encountering unexpected events" and "client trust", affecting professional self-efficacy beliefs among healthcare providers in the delivery of health education. The other main findings were extremely similar to Bandura's theory. These results can be used as a basis in planning and implementing health development educational models for human resources.
