COPD is a disease that lasts a long time and is progressive and difficult to cure completely, so it has a bad impact on the quality of life. Therefore, efforts are needed to increase maximum therapeutic management in managing the disease, one of which is self management such as increasing self-efficacy and self-care activity. This research aimed to determine the relationship between self efficacy and self-care activity on the quality of life in COPD patients. The method used in this research was cross-sectional involving 150 participants who had been diagnosed with COPD. This research used the SCES (COPD Self Efficacy Scale), SGRQ (ST.George's Respiratory Questionnaire), and WHOQOL-BREF (World Health Organization Quality Of Life-Bref) questionnaires. The statistical analysis was carried out using the Chi-Square test. The results of this research showed that the majority of COPD patients at the Labuang Baji Regional Public Hospital of Makassar had low self-efficacy and self-care activity, which caused the quality of life of these COPD patients to be poor or bad. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between self-efficacy and self-care activity on the quality of life in COPD patients, with a significance value of p<0.05. ## Keywords - Medicine - COPD - Pulmonary disease - Quality of life (healthcare) - Intensive care medicine - Disease - Physical therapy - Life quality - Statistical significance - Public health - Respiratory disease - Statistical analysis - Public hospital - Activities of daily living - Emergency medicine - Chronic disease --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
