Health locus of control and self-management behaviours among individuals with ischaemic heart disease: protocol for a scoping review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Ischaemic heart disease is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Self-management is a way to reduce the risk associated with ischaemic heart disease; however, some individuals may not have the ability or willingness to engage in self-management behaviours. One approach to identify an individual's readiness and capacity to engage in self-management behaviours is to assess their health locus of control. Based on the Individual and Family Self-Management Theory, this review's objectives are to describe: (1) how health locus of control affects the process of engaging in self-management behaviours, (2) impacts of health locus of control on outcomes associated with self-management behaviours and (3) potential contextual variations in the relationship between health locus of control and self-management behaviours. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The scoping review will be guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological framework. A comprehensive search will encompass seven electronic databases (Ovid Medline, CINAHL, EMBASE, APA PsycINFO, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Scopus) and grey literature sources (ProQuest Dissertations, ClinicalTrials.gov). Collaborative efforts with library experts will inform our search strategies, building on insights from previous reviews centred on self-management and ischaemic heart disease. Two review authors will independently conduct the screening and data extraction processes; discrepancies will be resolved through consensus or discussion with a third review author. The review will include English studies from database inception, focusing on the health locus of control among adults with ischaemic heart disease. Findings will be presented graphically and tabularly, together with a narrative description. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: We will collect data from published and grey literature, meaning ethical approval is not necessary. Findings will be published in peer-reviewed journals and presented at academic conferences. REGISTRATION DETAILS: Open Science Framework (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/B4A6F).
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
