| 1. Psychological variables based on the Self-Determination Theory constructs Assessed using the Japanese version of the Self-Determination Theory measurement scales (Yamamoto et al., 2009) at baseline, immediately after the intervention, 3 months, and 6 months after the intervention. Health Care Climate Questionnaire (HCCQ): one-factor, 6-item scale; 7-point Likert scale (1 = not at all true - 7 = very true). Treatment Self-Regulation Questionnaire (TSRQ): three-factor, 15-item scale; 7-point Likert scale (1 = not at all true - 7 = very true). Perceived Competence Scale (PCS): one-factor, 4-item scale; 7-point Likert scale (1 = not at all true - 7 = very true). 2. Self-management behavior Assessed using the Hemodialysis Self-Management Instrument (HDSMI, Japanese version; Nozawa et al., 2007) at baseline, immediately after the intervention, 3 months, and 6 months after the intervention. 3. Health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) Assessed using the Japanese version of the SF-8 Health Survey (Fukuhara et al., 2005) at baseline, immediately after the intervention, 3 months, and 6 months after the intervention. The SF-8 consists of eight subscales (physical functioning, role physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health) and yields Physical Component Summary (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS) scores. | — |
