This research evaluated the effectiveness of an online education model in teaching breast self- examination to university staff and students.
1,679 women participated in a breast self-examination online training program. Breast self-examination knowledge evaluation forms developed by Maurer (1997) were used in the research and were evaluated on a 100 point scale. Paired t-test and McNemar's Test statistics were employed.
The participants scored an average of 46.5 (14.0%) on knowledge on breast self-examination before training, but 77.4 (11.0%) one month after education and 76.7 (9.52%) after six months. There was a clear significant difference between these knowledge levels (p<0.05). Similarly, while the rate for systematic practice of breast self-examination among women was 30.8% before training it increased to 47.8% afterwards. Again the difference was significant (p<0.05).
Online education is an effective method for teaching breast self-examination to women.
本研究评估了一种在线教育模式在向大学教职员工和学生传授乳房自我检查方面的有效性。
1679名女性参与了乳房自我检查在线培训项目。研究采用了Maurer(1997年)编制的乳房自我检查知识评估表,并以100分制进行评估。采用配对t检验和McNemar检验统计方法。
参与者在培训前乳房自我检查知识的平均得分为46.5分(14.0%),但在教育后1个月为77.4分(11.0%),6个月后为76.7分(9.52%)。这些知识水平之间存在明显的显著差异(p<0.05)。同样,女性乳房自我检查的系统实践率在培训前为30.8%,之后提高到了47.8%。差异同样显著(p<0.05)。
在线教育是向女性传授乳房自我检查的有效方法。
