Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. Results: There were statistically significant differences in medication adherence according to living area (p=.002), health condition (p ${ beta}=.338$ ), attitude ( ${ beta}=.250$ ), and depression ( ${ beta}=.132$ ).
