This study provides empirical evidence that an educational intervention improves knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs among Nepalese female adolescents. Health professionals need to better understand the cultural practices and the role of females in underdeveloped countries such as Nepal. It is also important to identify female risk status for diseases such as HIV/AIDS. There is also a need for implementing culturally appropriate educational interventions with larger samples in rural, as well as urban, areas of Nepal. Nurses can play an active role in empowering Nepalese females, and, along with the government, they can plan and implement efficacious HIV/AIDS prevention programs.
本研究提供了实证证据，表明教育干预可改善尼泊尔女性青少年的知识、态度和信念。卫生专业人员需要更好地了解尼泊尔等不发达国家的文化习俗以及女性的角色。识别女性感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病等疾病的风险状况也很重要。此外，有必要在尼泊尔农村和城市地区对更大样本实施适合当地文化的教育干预措施。护士可以在增强尼泊尔女性权能方面发挥积极作用，并且可以与政府一道规划和实施有效的艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防项目。
