Objectives:To examine the mediating effects of depression and anxiety in the relationship between self-efficacy and quality of life among people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia.Method:A total of 196 patients diagnosed with MCI or dementia due to Alzheimer disease completed structured measures of self-efficacy, quality of life, and depressive and anxiety symptoms. We examined direct and mediated effects by fitting structural equation models to data.Results:Our analyses supported that the effects of self-efficacy on quality of life may be partially mediated by depression and anxiety. Both anxiety and depression had significant mediating effects, with depression showing a stronger effect.Conclusion:These results suggest that increased self-efficacy may have a positive effect on quality of life in people with MCI or dementia—partly by reducing depression and anxiety. These findings may have important practical implications for tailoring therapeutic interventions., admin,
