Foot care is the behavior least performed by patients although regular foot care could prevent complications such as diabetic foot and amputation. Psychosocial processes such as illness representations and distress symptoms may contribute to explain adherence to foot self-care behaviors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1463423618000531_abs3\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This is a longitudinal study with two assessment moments. The sample included 271 patients, who answered the Revised Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities, Brief-Illness Perception Questionnaire, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1463423618000531_abs4\" sec-type=\"general\"><jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients reported better foot care adherence at T2. Having a higher duration of T2DM and the perception of more consequences of diabetes were associated with better self-reported foot care adherence, at T1. At T2, the predictors were lower levels of HbA1c, better self-reported foot care adherence at T1, higher comprehension about T2DM, as well as fewer depressive symptoms. Interventions to promote adherence to foot care should have in consideration these variables. The results of the present study may help health professionals in designing interventions that early detect depressive symptoms and address illness beliefs, in order to promote foot self-care behaviors reducing the incidence of future complications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1463423618000531","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,10]],"date-time":"2018-08-10T05:25:28Z","timestamp":1533878728000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Self-reported adherence to foot care in type 2 diabetes patients: do illness representations and distress matter?"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7987-2562","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"M.
