| Abstract (English): | Objective. Examine the effect of a teaching intervention based on planned behavior theory on female nurses' preventive behaviors toward osteoporosis. Methods. In this quasi-experimental study, 100 female nurses working at two hospitals affiliated with Jahrom University of Medical Sciences in southern Iran were place in the intervention and control groups. Data were collected using a questionnaire that included demographic information and constructs of planned behavior theory. Data were collected in three phases: pretest, posttest one month after the teaching intervention, and posttest two months after the teaching intervention. Four sessions of 45–60 min training program were held within the period of a month for the experimental group at classrooms equipped with a video projector and whiteboard. No intervention was given to the control group. Results. The findings showed that the intervention and control groups were similar in terms of demographic variables before the intervention. There were significant differences in the means of attitude, abstract norms, behavioral intent, and preventive behavior in the intervention group compared to the control group one and two months after the teaching intervention (p<0.05). However, the mean perceived control of behavior did not differ significantly between the intervention and control groups (p=0.15). In the control group, the means of attitude, abstract norms, behavioral intent, and behavior did not differ significantly regarding osteoporosis prevention one and two months after the intervention compared to before the teaching intervention (p>0.05). The intervention had small effects on attitudes (Partial eta squared: η²p = 0.025 to 0.047), moderate effects on perceived behavioral control (η²p = 0.038 to0.054) and behavioral intention (η²p = 0.116 to 0.126), large effects on abstract norms (η²p = 0.282 to 0.295), and very large effects on behavior (η²p = 0.365 to 0.498). Conclusion. According to the results of this study, planned behavior theory may influence the preventive behavior of osteoporosis in female nurses. Therefore, this theory could serve as a framework for designing and conducting teaching interventions to prevent osteoporosis and promote health in women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | Objetivo. Examinar el efecto de una intervención docente basada en la teoría del comportamiento planificado sobre los comportamientos preventivos de las enfermeras frente a la osteoporosis. Métodos. En este estudio cuasi-experimental, 100 enfermeras que trabajaban en dos hospitales afiliados a la Universidad de Ciencias Médicas de Jahrom (sur de Irán), fueron asignadas aleatoriamente al grupo de intervención o al grupo de control. La intervención educativa consistió en cuatro sesiones de un programa de entrenamiento de 45-60 minutos de duración durante un mes para el grupo experimental. No se realizó ninguna intervención con el grupo de control. Los datos se recopilaron mediante un cuestionario que incluía información demográfica y preguntas sobre los constructos de la teoría del comportamiento planificado. Los datos se recopilaron en tres fases: basal, un mes y dos meses después de la intervención educativa. Resultados. Los hallazgos mostraron que los grupos de intervención y control eran similares en términos de variables demográficas antes de la intervención. Se observaron diferencias significativas en las medias de actitud, normas abstractas, intención conductual y comportamiento preventivo en el grupo de intervención en comparación con el grupo de control uno y dos meses después de la intervención educativa (p<0.05). Sin embargo, la media del control percibido del comportamiento no difirió significativamente entre los dos grupos de studio (p=0.15). En el grupo de control, las medias de actitud, normas abstractas, intención de comportamiento y comportamiento no difirieron significativamente en cuanto a la prevención de la osteoporosis uno y dos meses después de la intervención (p>0.05). La intervención tuvo efectos pequeños en las actitudes (Partial eta squared: η²p =0.025 a 0.047), efectos moderados en el control conductual percibido (η²p=0.038 a 0.054) y en la intención conductual (η²p=0.116 a 0.126), efectos grandes en las normas abstractas (η²p=0.282 a 0.295), y efectos muy grandes en el comportamiento (η²p=0.365 a 0.498). Conclusión. Según los resultados de este estudio, la teoría del comportamiento planificado puede influir en el comportamiento preventivo ante la osteoporosis en las enfermeras. Por lo tanto, esta teoría podría servir como marco para diseñar y llevar a cabo intervenciones docentes para prevenir la osteoporosis y promover la salud en las mujeres. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Portuguese): | Objetivo. Examinar o efeito de uma intervenção pedagógica baseada na teoria do comportamento planejado nos comportamentos preventivos de enfermeiras em relação à osteoporose. Métodos. Neste estudo quase experimental, 100 enfermeiras que trabalham em dois hospitais afiliados à Universidade de Ciências Médicas de Jahrom, no sul do Irã, foram colocadas nos grupos de intervenção e controle. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um questionário que incluía informações demográficas e conceitos da teoria do comportamento planejado. Os dados foram coletados em três fases: pré-teste, pós-teste um mês após a intervenção de ensino e pós-teste dois meses após a intervenção de ensino. Quatro sessões de um programa de treinamento de 45 a 60 minutos foram realizadas no período de um mês para o grupo experimental em salas de aula equipadas com um projetor de vídeo e quadro branco. Nenhuma intervenção foi realizada no grupo controle. Resultados. Os resultados mostraram que os grupos de intervenção e controle eram semelhantes em termos de variáveis demográficas antes da intervenção. Houve diferenças significativas nas médias de atitude, normas abstratas, intenção comportamental e comportamento preventivo no grupo de intervenção em comparação com o grupo controle um e dois meses após a intervenção de ensino (p<0.05). No entanto, a média do controle percebido do comportamento não diferiu significativamente entre os grupos de intervenção e controle (p=0.15). No grupo controle, as médias de atitude, normas abstratas, intenção comportamental e comportamento não diferiram significativamente em relação à prevenção da osteoporose um e dois meses após a intervenção em comparação com antes da intervenção de ensino (p>0.05). A intervenção teve pequenos efeitos nas atitudes (eta quadrado parcial: η²p=0.025 a 0.047), efeitos moderados no controle comportamental percebido (η²p=0.038 a 0.054) e na intenção comportamental (η²p=0.116 a 0.126), efeitos grandes nas normas abstratas (η²p=0.282 a 0.295) e efeitos muito grandes no comportamento (η²p=0.365 a 0.498). Conclusão. De acordo com os resultados deste estudo, a teoria do comportamento planejado pode influenciar o comportamento preventivo da osteoporose em enfermeiras. Portanto, essa teoria poderia servir como uma estrutura para projetar e conduzir intervenções de ensino para prevenir a osteoporose e promover a saúde nas mulheres. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
