Cardiovascular diseases refer to a group of diseases that affect the cardiovascular system; principally cardiac diseases, vascular diseases of the brain and kidney and peripheral arterial diseases which are caused by various factors. Considering the importance of nutrition education, especially the intake of fruits and vegetables, this study was performed to determine the effect of health education, Based on the Health Belief Model, on the improvement of intake of fruits and vegetables aiming at preventing cardiovascular diseases among high school girls in the city of Shahre- Kord, Iran.
This was a quasi-experimental intervention study, in which 120 female students of high schools in Isfahan were selected through convenient sampling and were divided into two groups of experimental (60) and control (60). The instruments for data collection were the Health Belief Model and FFQ questionnaires. The HBM questionnaire was completed three times (before, immediately and two months after the intervention) and the FFQ questionnaire was completed two times (before and two months after the intervention) by the students. After the pre-test, six educational sessions were provided for the experimental group. Finally, data were collected and analyzed by SPSS 16 (ttest, paired t-test and repeated measure ANOVA).
There were no differences between the two groups in terms of demographic variables. Before the intervention, there were not any significant differences between the scores of different structures of this model between the two groups (p>0.05); however, after the intervention, significant differences were found between the experimental and control groups in the levels of knowledge, perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, perceived efficacy and performance (p<0.001).
According to the results, the intervention had a positive impact on the improvement of intake of fruits and vegetables among the students.
心血管疾病是指影响心血管系统的一组疾病;主要包括心脏病、脑和肾的血管疾病以及由各种因素引起的外周动脉疾病。鉴于营养教育的重要性,特别是水果和蔬菜的摄入量,本研究基于健康信念模型,旨在确定健康教育对改善水果和蔬菜摄入量的影响,以预防伊朗设拉子市高中女生的心血管疾病。
这是一项准实验性干预研究,通过方便抽样选取了120名伊斯法罕高中女生,并将其分为实验组(60名)和对照组(60名)。数据收集工具为健康信念模型问卷和食物频率问卷。学生们分别三次(干预前、干预后立即以及干预后两个月)完成健康信念模型问卷,两次(干预前和干预后两个月)完成食物频率问卷。预测试后,为实验组提供了六次教育课程。最后,使用SPSS 16软件(t检验、配对t检验和重复测量方差分析)收集并分析数据。
两组在人口统计学变量方面没有差异。干预前,两组该模型不同结构的得分之间没有显著差异(p>0.05);然而,干预后,实验组和对照组在知识水平、感知易感性、感知严重性、感知益处、感知障碍、感知效能和行为方面存在显著差异(p<0.001)。
根据结果,该干预对提高学生水果和蔬菜摄入量有积极影响。
