Why do most people on dialysis not accept psychological care to increase perceptions of control in life?
A significant number of people on dialysis perceived low control in life, yet very few accepted an intervention for regaining a sense of control. In-depth qualitative research is needed for a more comprehensive understanding of the personal experience and perceived impact of low control on health and well-being, activities and relationships as well as people's reasons and needs for enhancing a sense of control and attitude towards psychological interventions aiming to enhance perceived control.
