To evaluate the effect of a social cognitive theory (SCT)-based intervention on the constructs of situational perception, behavioral capabilities, outcome expectations, outcome expectancies, and self-efficacy concerning over-the-counter (OTC) pain medications among an adolescent population.
Pre-posttest control group design.
Rural high school in the southeastern United States, between February and March 2011.
203 high school students recruited from 10 classrooms.
Classrooms were randomly assigned to an SCT-based education intervention group or the control group. Pre- and posttest data were collected from each group 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after the intervention was delivered.
Change in the five selected constructs of SCT.
Compared with the control group, significant improvements at posttest were observed in the intervention group for outcome expectations of OTC pain medications ( P ≤ 0.05) and behavioral capabilities ( P ≤ 0.05).
The results suggest that lessons based on SCT to improve the outcome expectations that an adolescent population places on the consumption of OTC pain medications may assist in developing the knowledge and skills needed to consume these products properly.
评估基于社会认知理论(SCT)的干预对青少年人群对非处方(OTC)止痛药的情境感知、行为能力、结果预期、结果期望和自我效能感等构念的影响。
前后测试对照设计。
2011 年 2 月至 3 月期间,美国东南部农村的一所高中。
从 10 个班级中招募了 203 名高中生。
将教室随机分配到基于 SCT 的教育干预组或对照组。在干预措施实施前两周和后两周,从每个组收集了预测试和后测试数据。
SCT 五个选定构念的变化。
与对照组相比,干预组在 OTC 止痛药的结果预期(P≤0.05)和行为能力(P≤0.05)方面,在后测时观察到显著改善。
结果表明,基于 SCT 的课程可以提高青少年人群对 OTC 止痛药的消费结果预期,这可能有助于培养正确使用这些产品所需的知识和技能。
