In common with the general population, nursing students struggle to live a healthy lifestyle.
To recruit students in a behaviour change intervention, using the COM-B model of behaviour change to understand engagement.
Nursing students were invited to complete an online survey assessing height, weight, BMI, physical activity, lifestyle satisfaction, motivation for leading a healthy life, and quality of life. Those identified as overweight or not physically active were offered a webinar and social media site to support setting personal goals and boosting motivation to achieve a healthy lifestyle.
25% of invited students engaged with the interventions, 19% attending a webinar and 19% joining the social media site. No statistically reliable differences between those who engaged and those who did not were identified.
Current models of behaviour change do not predict engagement. Interventions may need to be integrated into the curriculum to elicit change.
与普通人群一样,护理专业的学生也难以形成健康的生活方式。
利用行为改变的 COM-B 模型来理解参与情况,从而招募参与行为改变干预的学生。
邀请护理专业的学生填写一份在线调查,评估他们的身高、体重、BMI、身体活动、生活方式满意度、健康生活的动机以及生活质量。对于被确定为超重或身体活动不足的学生,我们提供了网络研讨会和社交媒体网站,以支持他们设定个人目标,并提高实现健康生活方式的动力。
有 25%的受邀学生参与了干预措施,其中 19%的学生参加了网络研讨会,19%的学生加入了社交媒体网站。参与和不参与的学生之间没有发现统计学上显著的差异。
目前的行为改变模型不能预测参与度。干预措施可能需要融入课程中才能引发改变。
