AB  - PURPOSE: It has become evident that patients with epilepsy require strong 
      self-efficacy support in various domains, including work, social interaction, and 
      academic performance, to ensure their complete social functioning. Nevertheless, 
      previous studies have predominantly assessed the self-efficacy of individuals 
      with epilepsy from a singular perspective of disease management. This study aimed 
      to develop the Multidimensional Self-Efficacy Scale for Epilepsy (MSESE) to 
      assess multiple dimensions and establish its psychometric properties. METHODS: We 
      compiled a total of 25 questions for the initial version of the questionnaire 
      based on a review of the literature and insights from experts, patients, and 
      family members. The study included 180 adult patients with epilepsy who met the 
      research criteria, with 126 of them serving as pre-test samples. All participants 
      completed the MSESE, Brief Symptom Rating Scale-50 (BSRS-50), Rosenberg 
      Self-Esteem Scale-Chinese version (RSES-C), and General Self-Efficacy Scale 
      (GSES). RESULTS: The final scale consisted of 12 items across four dimensions, 
      with item factor loadings ranging from .51 to .90. Most of the fit indices 
      indicated a good fit. Construct validity was established through significant 
      correlations with the BSRS-50, RSES-C, and GSES (r = -0.51 to 0.69, p < 0.01). 
      Internal consistency coefficients for the MSESE were strong at .90, with 
      individual dimensions ranging from 0.71 to 0.89. The MSESE also demonstrated a 
      satisfactory test-retest reliability of 0.72. CONCLUSIONS: The MSESE is a 
      convenient, multidimensional, and easy-to-use scale with good psychometric 
      properties, making it suitable for both clinical assessments and research 
      purposes.
