The International Labour Organization (ILO) has developed a workplace intervention known as SOLVE, aimed at reducing the incidence of psychosocial problems related to job stress, workplace violence, tobacco use, drug and alcohol abuse, and HIV/AIDS. Although this ILO intervention is widely implemented, this article reports the first attempt to empirically assess its effectiveness. Using pre- and posttests of knowledge related to the course content gathered from 268 individuals in 7 countries who attended 1 of 15 SOLVE courses, analyses show that participant learning significantly improved as a function of attending the training. Knowledge gains were consistent regardless of course attended, language used to deliver the training program, and country in which the training took place. Implications of the SOLVE program are discussed, and future steps for further intervention development and assessment are recommended.
国际劳工组织(ILO)开发了一种名为“解决”(SOLVE)的工作场所干预措施,旨在减少与工作压力、工作场所暴力、烟草使用、药物和酒精滥用以及艾滋病毒/艾滋病相关的心理社会问题的发生率。尽管国际劳工组织的这种干预措施得到了广泛实施,但本文报道了首次对其实效进行实证评估的尝试。通过对来自7个国家的268名参加了15个“解决”课程之一的人员所收集的与课程内容相关的知识进行前后测试,分析表明,参与者的学习情况因参加培训而有显著改善。无论参加的课程、用于提供培训计划的语言以及培训所在的国家如何,知识收获都是一致的。本文讨论了“解决”计划的影响,并建议了未来进一步开展干预措施开发和评估的步骤。
