Purpose.To determine whether a formal asthma self‐management program and social support using lay health advisors increases parent self‐efficacy in the management of their child's asthma, and whether parent self‐efficacy predicts asthma self‐management skills.DESIGN.Quasi‐experimental with four time points measured over 2 years.PARTICIPANTS.Low‐income, primarily Hispanic parents (N = 303) of children with moderately severe to severe asthma.SETTING.A Southwestern university medical setting in a rural state.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES.Parent self‐efficacy and parent asthma self‐management skill score scales.RESULTS.Parent self‐efficacy increased significantly from baseline, but there were no significant differences between the control and treatment groups. The increase in self‐efficacy was apparent at 6 months, then leveled off. Parent self‐efficacy at either baseline or 12 months did not predict parents' asthma self‐management skill score.CONCLUSIONS.Individual education was just as effective as group education in increasing parental self‐efficacy. Parents felt more comfortable treating asthma episodes than preventing them, thus clinicians need to spend time teaching preventive strategies.
