چکیده

Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common problem for women of all ages. Associated with poor self-reported health, UI may have a negative effect on women's lifestyle and quality of life.

This study provides insight into how a woman's perceived or subjective opinion of the severity of UI and her belief in the ability to regain control of UI influence the effectiveness of treatment.
