Methods: The design of the study used observational analytics with a cross-sectional study approach. The sample size consisted of 108 patients with hypertension in health centers in Malang Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The independent variables were physical activity, food consumption, medication adherence, control in health care and stress management. The dependent variable was self-regulation. Data were collected using a questionnaire tested for validity and reliability. Logistic regression was used to analyze the results. Results: Age (p = 0.014) and support of health workers (p = 0.004) had an effect on the self-regulation of food consumption. Age (p = 0.008), gender (p = 0.006), family history (p = 0.004), family support (p = 0.014) and health insurance (p = 0.028) had an effect on the self-regulation of medication adherence. Age (p = 0.022) affected the self-regulation of control to health services. Peer support (p = 0.008) was significantly associated with stress management. Conclusion: The consolidation of social support and health services is important to improve self- regulation based on self-beliefs in patients with hypertension.

The proportion of the world’s population with high blood pressure, or uncontrolled hypertension, fell modestly between 1980 and 2008. However, because of population growth and ageing, the number of people with uncontrolled hypertension rose from 600 million in 1980 to nearly 1 billion in 2013 [1].The prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia is high. In 2013, the national prevalence of hypertension was 25.8%. This figure increased rapidly in 2018 by 34.1% [2,3].The ability to self-care is an important quality for hypertensive patients to possess in order to maintain blood pressure and prevent complications [4, 5].However, the self-care ability for patients with hypertension is still relatively low, which is characterized by the inability to achieve the expected blood pressure [6, 8]. Many researchers believe that major changes in lifestyle behaviors play an important role in the prevalence of hypertension [9]. Several studies showed that low level of physical activity, being overweight, malnutrition and being a smoker could be associated with increased risk for hypertension, even in early adulthood, with a prediction of hypertension during adolescence [10, 12]. Researchers believe that taking antihypertensive medication as well as modifying lifestyles will result in the best therapeutic effect. However, some studies have shown that when hypertensive patients
