Abstract

The objective was to describe the effect of a mailed health education booklet for families with children in relation to parents' need for health education. It was a randomized controlled trial. The parents' anxiety and use of doctors were registered in a questionnaire, together with selected psychosocial conditions, during a retrospective period of six months. An age-stratified random sample of 3913 families--1953 study families and 1960 control families was drawn in the county of Ringkjøbing, Denmark. The booklet was used a lot; it reduced parents' anxiety and use of doctors in children's illnesses. The effect was most pronounced in those parents who had least need for health education. This method of health education was not very efficient. The possibilities and value of combining written health education with personal individual instruction by the general practitioner are discussed.

摘要

目的是描述邮寄给有孩子家庭的健康教育手册对父母健康教育需求的影响。这是一项随机对照试验。在回顾性的六个月期间，通过问卷调查记录父母的焦虑情绪、看医生的频率以及一些选定的心理社会状况。在丹麦灵克宾县抽取了3913个家庭的年龄分层随机样本，其中1953个为研究家庭，1960个为对照家庭。该手册得到了广泛使用；它减轻了父母在孩子生病时的焦虑情绪以及看医生的频率。这种效果在那些最不需要健康教育的父母中最为明显。这种健康教育方法效率不是很高。文中还讨论了将书面健康教育与全科医生的个人指导相结合的可能性和价值。
