Abstract

This article examines the relationships among education, mood, anxiety, self-efficacy, and self-management in Spanish-speaking people with epilepsy (PWE). In a sample of primarily monolingual, immigrant patients at a safety-net hospital in Dallas, Texas, higher education was associated with lower anxiety severity but was not related to epilepsy self-efficacy or self-management scores. Additionally, better self-management correlated with fewer depressive symptoms. The study highlights moderate to severe levels of depression and anxiety in this population and suggests further research is needed due to the limited sample size.
