Human behavior, in dealing with pandemic, becomes one of the key factors during the speed of an outbreak. In this way, individual and social responsibility are needed to determine behaviors, end the pandemic, and anticipate for the next outbreak. The purpose of this systematic review is to provide structured information about the results of applying the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in concern to create COVID-19 preventive behavior (CPB) as the case example. This systematic review was compiled by searching articles using the keywords "theory of planned behavior"[MeSH] AND COVID-19 preventive behavior. ("theory of planned behavior"[MeSH]) AND "hand disinfection"[MeSH]. "Theory of planned behavior" AND "social distancing." "Theory of planned behavior" AND "wearing mask." The search was obtained from PUBMED and Google Scholar. The 13 articles met the requirements to be reviewed qualitatively on the implementation of TPB. The results showed that TPB was effective to bring about the prevention behavior of infectious disease, such as COVID-19. Other significant aspects are intentions, norms, and behavioral control. The TPB model can be applied for health promotion in creating prevention behavior of infectious disease.

Village health volunteers (VHVs) play crucial leadership roles in promoting health behavior changes including searching for, controlling, and preventing the spread of COVID-19 within their communities. This cross-sectional study investigated the association between health literacy and COVID-19 prevention behaviors of 425 VHVs in Samut Songkhram Province, Thailand, who were selected using a multistage sampling method. Data were collected through a self-administered questionnaire and analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis to determine correlations. Results revealed that most participants demonstrated good overall health literacy (63.3%), with COVID-19 prevention behaviors at a high level (53.6%). A positive correlation was observed between overall health literacy and COVID-19 prevention behavior (r = 0.103, p-value < 0.05). After adjusting for age in years, the overall health literacy score was found to be significantly related to the COVID-19 prevention behavior score (Beta = 0.146). These findings can be utilized to further enhance health literacy among VHVs in Samut Songkhram Province, Thailand and serve as a guideline to promote effective disease prevention behaviors within local communities.

Full textAbstract:
Bullying is considered to be a significant public health problem with both short- and long-term physical and social-emotional consequences for youth. A large body of research indicates that youth who have been bullied are at increased risk of subsequent mental, emotional, health, and behavioral problems, especially internalizing problems, such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Given the growing awareness of bullying as a public health problem and the increasing evidence of short- and long-term physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral health and academic consequences of bullying behavior, there have been significant efforts at the practice, program, and policy levels to address bullying behavior. This article summarizes a recent consensus report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Preventing Bullying Through Science, Policy, and Practice, and what is known about the consequences of bullying behavior and interventions that attempt to prevent and respond to it.

Full textAbstract:
Following the outbreak of COVID-19, the World Health Organization recommended prevention measures to minimize the spread of the pandemic. However, strict compliance with prevention measures requires positive health behavior practices, especially among adults. Therefore, this study investigated adults’ health behaviors in relation to pandemic prevention based on the health belief model (HBM) and the theory of planned behavior (TPB). This study used a structural model, applying the HBM and the TPB to explain and predict pandemic prevention behaviors in adults. The data obtained were statistically analyzed using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 25.0. The results revealed that, in total, 341 adults (age: 20–64 years; males: 167, females: 174; single: 167; married: 164; divorced: 8) participated in this study. Of the 341 participants, 339 had use of the internet and a smartphone. Furthermore, the results revealed that attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control in relation to pandemic prevention behaviors directly affected people’s intentions to adopt pandemic prevention behaviors. Perceived severity and perceived disability had significant indirect effects on the intention to prevent pandemics; pandemic prevention behavior and perceived behavioral control had a significant effect on pandemic prevention intention. The pandemic prevention education programs suggested in this study have the potential to improve adults’ health behavior in relation to pandemic prevention.

This research paper seeks to address a major social problem among Georgian youth, tobacco use.The tobacco epidemic is one of the most important and urgent public health challenges facing governments and civil societies around the world. The cycle of tobacco dependence typically begins with the initiation of tobacco use during adolescence. The average age of tobacco use is age before 20; people start smoking before 20 years of age. This research was based on the Unified Theory of Behavior Change. A unified theory of adolescent risk behavior was explicated that integrates five major theories of human behavior. The theory emphasizes intentions to perform behaviors, knowledge and skills necessary for behavioral performance, the salience of the behavior, environmental constraints and facilitators, habit and automatic processes, expectancies, social norms, self concept and image considerations, self efficacy and emotions and affective reactions. Data were collected from 300 adolescents from Georgian schools in Tbilisi, Georgia. Results were calculated using SPSS.

Full textAbstract:
Scabies can be prevented by implementing healthy behaviors such as scabies prevention behaviors. This can help reduce the spread of scabies transmission in boarding schools. One of the risk factors for scabies is the level of education. The incidence of scabies is mostly experienced by MTs students rather than MA students. Because MTs students tend to have poor scabies prevention behavior. In relation to the incidence of scabies in individuals, exposure experience is a crucial aspect because individuals of more mature age, namely MA students, have better potential in knowing how to prevent scabies. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between education level and the prevention behavior of scabies in students at Pondok Pesantren Y Pati. This study applied analytic observational method with cross sectional research design. The research sample was 56 male and 87 female students of Pondok Pesantren Y Pati who were selected through total sampling technique. The research instrument was a scabies prevention behavior questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability by Umi Hasanah, 2019. Data were analyzed by applying the chi square test at a significance level of 95%. There is a significant relationship between education level and scabies prevention behavior p = 0.000, with a PR value = 14.695. With the characteristics of male respondents = 56 students (39.2%), female = 87 students (60.8%), MTs = 93 students (65.0%), MA = 50 students (35%), students who experience scabies = 62 students (43.4%), students who do not experience scabies = 81 (56.6%). The level of education can affect the behavior of preventing scabies in students.

Full textAbstract:
This paper reviews research on the effects of behavioral risk factors on cancer incidence, as well as behavioral interventions for cancer prevention. Risk factors discussed here—tobacco use, diet, physical activity, and obesity/energy balance—are all linked with cancer etiology, and effective behavioral interventions have been developed in all of these areas. The most effective interventions appear to incorporate various components; for example, including individual as well as family activities, and involving multiple community organizations in behavior-changing activities. Behavioral theories have guided the design of these interventions, providing support that certain influences on behavior, such as self-efficacy, problem-solving skills, and social support, are important regardless of the specific behavioral target. As illustrated by the recent lowered lung cancer incidence and mortality rates for men and women, behavior change is possible and effective in cancer prevention. Clinical guidelines have been established for behavioral aspects of treatments for smoking cessation, dietary guideline compliance, physical activity, and obesity reduction, and new tools for dissemination of effective intervention materials will be helpful in increasing their use. Documenting the cost-effectiveness of behavioral interventions, using new technology interventions, and building on translational research to tailor interventions to individuals offer considerable promise for the future.

Samples of 74 pregnant women were taken by a purposive sampling method. The independent variable is COVID-19 prevention behavior. The variable dependent are knowledge and attitude to preventing COVID-19. Test analysis using the Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. The results of the study show that the majority pregnant women have good knowledge of preventing Covid-19 (83.8%), have a negative attitude of preventing Covid-19 (58.1%), and 68.9% have behavior that supports the prevention of Covid-19. There is a relationship between knowledge and behavior of pregnant women in preventing COVID-19 with a p-value is 0.006 and there is a relationship between attitudes and behavior of pregnant women in preventing COVID-19 with a p-value is 0.018. The results of this study indicate that there are still behaviors that aren't in accordance with health protocols. Continuing education is required for pregnant women by leaflets, posters, electronic and online educational media, also as handwashing facilities at health care facilities. Additionally, government support is required to manage policies within the application of health protocols in order that Covid-19 prevention behavior is high and therefore the risk of Covid-19 events are controlled.Keyword: Behavior, Kvowledge, Attitude, Pregnant women, Covid-19

The adolescent and youth population is at high risk of contracting HIV infection. Little is known in Tanzania regarding the application of Health Belief Model (HBM) in identifying the factors that influence HIV prevention behaviors within this group. This study aims to use the Health Belief Model to assess the determinants of HIV/AIDS prevention behavior among University students in central Tanzania. The analytical cross-sectional study design was conducted among undergraduate students at the University of Dodoma and St. John University in Tanzania, from 15th June 2024 to 15th July 2024. The multiple sampling techniques were employed to select 310 study participants. A structured questionnaire adapted from previous studies was used to collect data from study participants. The determinants of HIV/AIDS prevention behaviors were analyzed using bivariable and multivariable binary logistic regression models. The majority of study respondents 248 (80%) had adequate knowledge of HIV/AIDS prevention behaviors. Most of respondents had high perceived barrier 175 (56.5%) and high perceived benefit 194 (62.6%) toward HIV prevention behavior. More than half of the study respondents had negative attitude 172 (55.5%) and low level of engagement in HIV/AIDS prevention behavior 173 (55.8%). The University students with high perceived barriers (aOR = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.350–0.966; p = 0.036) and negative attitudes (aOR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.362–0.995; p = 0.048) were less likely to engage in HIV/AIDS prevention behavior practice. This study revealed that more than half of university students were poorly engaged in HIV/AIDS prevention behavior practice. This low level of engagement was mostly influenced by high perceived barriers and negative attitudes toward HIV prevention behavior. Putting more efforts into initiatives to educate university students about HIV prevention practices, will help to maximize their awareness and encourage them to participate in HIV/AIDS prevention behavior.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of psychological factors in the formation of suicidal behavior in adolescents. The following personal characteristics of adolescents are considered that predispose them to suicidal behavior, such as emotionally labile, cycloid and hysterical types of character accentuation. Character traits of adolescents with borderline personality disorders, such as instability of emotions, impulsivity, and a tendency toward self-aggression, can provoke suicidal intentions and attempts. Social isolation, rejection by peers, and conflicts in the family can lead to psychological trauma and suicidal reactions in adolescence. Suicidal behavior in adolescence can be a reaction to traumatic situations associated with violence, abuse, and sexual harassment. Various methods of psychological prevention of suicidal behavior are considered. An effective method for preventing suicidal behavior in adolescents is the formation of resilience and resource states of the individual, and early diagnosis of risk groups plays an important role in the prevention of suicidal behavior. The emphasis is on the need to increase the psychological competence of parents, teachers and specialists in recognizing and preventing suicidal behavior, as well as on interdepartmental interaction and coordination of services at all levels of the prevention system.

Full textAbstract:
The outbreak of the Ebola virus disease (EVD) from 2014 to 2016 is over. However, several outbreaks of contagious diseases have already arisen and will recur. This paper aims to evaluate the effectiveness of EVD prevention promotions in the Gambia and to assess the psychosocial factors that steer three behaviors: handwashing with soap, calling the Ebola Hotline, and not touching a person who might be suffering from EVD. In 2015, data were gathered from 498 primary care providers. The questionnaire was based on psychosocial factors from the risks, attitudes, norms, abilities, and self-regulation (RANAS) model. Three promotional activities were significantly associated with psychosocial factors of handwashing and, thus, with increased handwashing behavior: the home visit, posters, and info sheets. Norm factors, especially the perception of what other people do, had a great impact on handwashing with soap and on calling the Ebola Hotline. The perceived certainty that a behavior will prevent a disease was a predictor for all three protection behaviors. Commitment to the behavior emerged as especially relevant for the intention to call the Ebola Hotline and for not touching a person who might be suffering from EVD. Health behavior change programs should rely on evidence to target the right psychosocial factors and to maximize their effects on prevention behaviors, especially in emergency contexts.

In this way, individual and social responsibility are needed to determine behaviors, end the pandemic, and anticipate for the next outbreak. The purpose of this systematic review is to provide structured information about the results of applying the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in concern to create COVID-19 preventive behavior (CPB) as the case example. This systematic review was compiled by searching articles using the keywords "theory of planned behavior"[MeSH] AND COVID-19 preventive behavior. ("theory of planned behavior"[MeSH]) AND "hand disinfection"[MeSH]. "Theory of planned behavior" AND "social distancing." "Theory of planned behavior" AND "wearing mask." The search was obtained from PUBMED and Google Scholar. The 13 articles met the requirements to be reviewed qualitatively on the implementation of TPB. The results showed that TPB was effective to bring about the prevention behavior of infectious disease, such as COVID-19. Other significant aspects are intentions, norms, and behavioral control. The TPB model can be applied for health promotion in creating prevention behavior of infectious disease.

Full textAbstract:
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly impacted United States residents. Prevention behaviors are critical to minimizing transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in the U.S., to ultimately reduce the health, social, and economic burdens of COVID-19. Yet, health behavior decision-making is complex, and uptake of preventative behaviors has been variable. Women may provide pro-prevention behavior modeling to their networks, facilitating uptake diffusion. The COPE Study enrolled 491 women residing in the United States from May to June of 2020; women completed an online survey of COVID-19 experiences and prevention behaviors. We employed binary logistic modeling to identify factors predicting women’s practice of (1) staying home except for essential activities, (2) physical distancing in public, and (3) wearing a face mask in public. Findings demonstrate that women’s prevention behaviors are influenced by multilevel factors. Women living in urban environments, having minimal formal education, or having a household annual income of USD 30,000–50,000 are less likely to practice prevention behaviors. Cultural context may be an important factor in the decision-making process. Results aid in the identification what interventional “levers” may warrant consideration to promote uptake of such behaviors, and whom to engage. Because women are modelers of behavior, it is critical to engage them in prevention behavior interventions.

Full textAbstract:
Background The impacts of socioeconomic status (SES) on COVID-19-related changes in cancer prevention behavior have not been thoroughly investigated. We conducted a cohort study to examine the effects of SES on changes in cancer prevention behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods We invited adult participants from previous studies conducted at Ohio State University to participate in a study assessing the impact of COVID-19 on various behaviors. Post-COVID-19 cancer prevention behaviors, including physical activity, daily intake of fruits and vegetables, alcohol and tobacco consumption, and qualitative changes in post-COVID-19 behaviors relative to pre-COVID levels, were used to construct a prevention behavior change index that captures the adherence status and COVID-related changes in each behavior, with higher index scores indicating desirable changes in prevention behaviors. Participants were classified into low, middle, or high SES based on household income, education, and employment status. Adjusted regression models were used to examine the effects of SES on changes in cancer prevention behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results The study included 6,136 eligible participants. The average age was 57 years, 67% were women, 89% were non-Hispanic Whites, and 33% lived in non-metro counties. Relative to participants with high SES, those with low SES had a 24% [adjusted relative ratio, aRR = 0.76 (95%CI 0.72–0.80)], 11% [aRR = 0.89 (95%CI 0.86–0.92)], and 5% [aRR = 0.95 (95%CI 0.93–0.96)], lower desirable changes in prevention behaviors for physical activity, fruit and vegetable intake, and tobacco use, respectively. Low SES had a higher desirable change in alcohol consumption prevention behaviors, 16% [aRR = 1.16 (95%CI 1.13–1.19)] relative to high SES. The adjusted odds of an overall poor change in prevention behavior were adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.55 (95%CI 1.27 to 1.89) and aOR 1.40 (95%CI 1.19 to 1.66), respectively, higher for those with low and middle SES relative to those with high SES. Conclusion The adverse impacts of COVID-19 on cancer prevention behaviors were seen most in those with lower SES. Public health efforts are currently needed to promote cancer prevention behaviors, especially amongst lower SES adults.

Background: the incidence of premarital sexual behavior by adolescents in the world has increased, so that adolescents need attention, guidance, supervision from parents, and good service planning related to reproductive health problems, so that teens will avoid risky behaviors namely premarital sexual behavior.Method: The cross-sectional study design was conducted on 229 adolescents aged 16-17 years with multistage random sampling. Questionnaires were used to measure family socioeconomic factors and prevention of premarital sexual behavior using theory and have been modified by researchers. The family socioeconomic factor variables include indicators of education, income, employment and number of family members and the variables for preventing premarital sexual behavior include refusing skills, increasing religiosity, avoiding pornographic media, promoting sexual health and enhancing parent-teen relations.Data analysis: using SEM using software (Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) version 21). Results: The effect of family socioeconomic factors on the prevention of premarital sexual behavior with a P-value of 0.849 indicates that family socio- economic factors do not significantly influence premarital sexual prevention by adolescents.Conclusion: Family factors in this case are family socio-economic factors that have no effect on premarital sexual prevention in adolescents, this can be caused by the influence of individual adolescents' attitudes and the efforts of adolescents themselves to increase their religiosity and understanding of sexual behavior healthy and responsible who ultimately can make the right decisions and be responsible for their sexual lives and have the ability to resist premarital sexual behavior.

Purpose Sustainability literature has cited the influential role of both awareness and engagement in facilitating increases in pro-environmental behaviors. The purpose of this study is to compare these links across behaviors and explore their interactive influence. Design/methodology/approach Two research questions were examined: 1) Is awareness about campus efforts regarding waste-prevention and sustainable travel/transportation options associated with increases in student waste-prevention and sustainable travel/transportation behaviors? 2) Is the link between sustainability awareness and changes in behavior conditioned by student engagement (i.e. participation) in campus sustainability activities and events? Research questions were examined using data from the University of Michigan Sustainability Cultural Indicators Program. A sample of freshmen completed a Web-based survey in 2012, and again as seniors in 2015. Findings Greater awareness of campus waste-prevention efforts in 2015 was associated with significant increases in student waste-prevention behaviors from 2012 to 2015. Also, among students who were engaged (i.e. reported participating in a campus sustainability activity/event), greater travel/transportation awareness in 2015 was associated with a significant decline in sustainable travel/transportation behavior. Consistent with previous studies this study found a link between sustainability awareness and increases in sustainable behavior. However, this study also indicates that this link is not present for all behaviors (i.e. use of sustainable travel/transportation). This study also found that engagement does not amplify the awareness–behavior link. Originality/value Understanding key drivers of changes in sustainable behavior for specific behaviors can inform the allocation of resources and help university campuses reach their sustainability goals.

To be effective in reducing the incidence of foodborne illness, consumers and food safety educators need information about behaviors that will decrease exposure to foodborne pathogens. A four-round Delphi technique was used to survey nationally recognized experts in food microbiology, epidemiology, food safety education, and food safety policy with the aim of identifying and ranking food-handling and consumption behaviors associated with 13 major foodborne pathogens. The food safety experts ranked behaviors related to keeping foods at safe temperatures as of primary importance in preventing illness caused by Bacillus cereus and Clostridium perfringens and of secondary importance in preventing illness caused by Staphylococcus aureus. The use of a thermometer to cook foods adequately was ranked as of primary importance for the prevention of illness caused by Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella species, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Toxoplasma gondii, and Yersinia enterocolitica, with the avoidance of cross-contamination being ranked as of secondary importance for most of these pathogens. Hand washing was the top-ranked behavior for the prevention of shigellosis. The avoidance of certain foods that are likely to be contaminated was the top-ranked behavior for the prevention of illnesses caused by Listeria monocytogenes, Noroviruses, and Vibrio species. The expert panel's ranking of behaviors for the reduction of the risk of illness caused by major foodborne pathogens can enable consumers to make informed choices about food consumption and handling behaviors and can guide food safety educators in prioritizing their educational efforts.

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Cervical cancer is a disease which can causes and increase infertility, morbidity and mortality of women in the world. The incidence rates of cervical cancer can be reduced by doing primary and secondary preventions. This study aims to determine the relation of self-efficacy, perceived barriers and interpersonal factors to cervical cancer prevention behavior in reproductive-aged women.Method: The study design was correlational study with cross sectional approach. The population were married women of reproductive-age between 15-45 years old in Pacarkeling community health center, Surabaya. The sample of this study was 110 respondents which used cluster sampling technique. The independent variables were perceived barriers, self-efficacy and interpersonal factors and the independent variable was cervical cancer prevention behavior. The data analyzed by using spearman rho statistical test with a significance level of α ≤ 0.05 to find out the related variables to the cervical cancer prevention behavior in reproductive-aged women.Result: The results of this study shows that the perceived barriers (p = 0,000) and interpersonal factors (p = 0,001) were related to cervical cancer prevention behavior (α ≤ 0,05), however self-efficacy was not related to cervical cancer prevention behavior (p = 0,668).Conclusion: Perceived barriers and interpersonal factors could determine the cervical cancer prevention behavior in reproductive-aged women. However, self-efficacy was not proven to determine the cervical cancer prevention behavior. Further, most of women in this study have low self-efficacy, but they have good cervical cancer prevention behavior.Keywords: cervical cancer, interpersonal factors, perceived barriers, self-efficacy, reproductive-aged women

BACKGROUND: Falls are considered a serious problem among hospital events. Patients in hospitals are at risk for falls due to unfamiliar and potentially high-risk environments, weak physical conditions, and medicines that may increase fall risk. AIM AND OBJECTIVE: There is some evidence that patient education is an important component of multifactorial interventions for falls prevention. Given that patient education has an effective role in falls preventions at hospitals, the purpose of this study was to evaluate multimedia education for preventing falls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A quasi-experimental design was used to investigate the effectiveness of educational materials in fall prevention program at Masih Daneshvari hospital. The study was conducted in four models of a patient education program. Patients' knowledge and skill of fall prevention in the hospital were tested on admission (pretest) and day 7 (posttest). The intervention was delivered after admission in all groups. RESULTS: There were 204 patients in four intervention groups and 50 patients in the control group. The comparison of the intervention groups with the control group showed that the changes in knowledge and behavior in the group that used multimedia education were significantly higher compared to traditional education. CONCLUSION: The findings of the present study suggest that patient education can be considered one of the main strategies to prevent falls, especially in a hospital setting. Further, the use of multimedia education simultaneously with face-to-face training has a synergistic effect and increases the effectiveness of fall prevention education programs.

Introduction: This study investigates the correlation between maternal knowledge and attitudes and their impact on preventing Acute Respiratory Infections (ARIs) in under two children in Lewoleba, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. With a focus on this region with limited prior research, the study explores howa mother's understanding and approach toward ARI prevention measures may contribute to improved child health outcomes. Methods: A cross-sectional study investigated the association between maternal knowledge and attitudes and their impact on preventing ARIs in children under two years old in Lewoleba, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The study administered structured questionnaires to gather data on maternal knowledge and attitude toward ARIs, behavior toward prevention, and demographic information. Data were analyzed using bivariate analysis to evaluate the association. Results: Of 144 respondents, 81.3% showed high ARI knowledge, but only 54.9% had positive attitudes, and 53.2% exhibited good behaviors. The Chi-square test revealed a significant relationship between knowledge and attitude with ARI behavior (P<0.05) among mothers with children aged 0-24 months in Lewoleba Primary Health Centre, Nubatukan District, Lembata Regency. Specifically, mothers with high knowledge had a 2.31 prevalence ratio (PR) for good ARI-related behaviors compared to those with low ability. In contrast, those with positive attitudes had a 1.52 PR for such behaviors. Conclusions: This study revealed a connection between mothers' knowledge and attitudes concerning ARI in children under two and their preventive actions. Despite a relative scarcity of good behaviors compared to strong knowledge and positive attitudes, the findings underscore that higher knowledge scores and more positive attitudes lead to significantly better behavioral outcomes. Keywords: acute respiratory infections - attitude - behavior - knowledge - prevention.

Typhoid fever is a disease that attacks the digestive tract, caused by the bacteria Salmonella typhi. This disease can occur due to low personal hygiene, slum environmental sanitation, and habit of snacking carelessly. Typhoid fever prevention behavior in food handlers is needed to reduce the incidence of typhoid fever, where this behavior is influenced by the knowledge and attitudes of the food handlers about the prevention of typhoid fever. The purpose of this research was to determine the correlation between knowledge and attitudes about typhoid fever prevention with typhoid fever prevention behavior in food handlers in Air Hitam Sub District Payung Sekaki District Pekanbaru City. The research method used an analytic survey with a cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used accidental sampling with a sample size of 30 respondents. The data analysis used the Spearman correlation test, because the data were not normally distributed. There was a relationship between knowledge about typhoid fever prevention and typhoid fever prevention behaviors among food handlers with moderate correlation strength and positive correlation direction (p-value = 0.000; r = 0.555). There was also a relationship between attitudes about typhoid fever prevention and typhoid fever prevention behaviors among food handlers with strong correlation strength and positive correlation direction (p-value = 0.000; r = 0.674). The conclusion of this research was knowledge and attitude about typhoid fever prevention correlate with typhoid fever prevention behaviors among food handlers in Air Hitam Sub District Payung Sekaki District Pekanbaru City.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Suicide is the second leading cause of death among adolescents around the globe. Therefore, understanding its causes and prevention is needed. Objective: This study aimed to explore Thai secondary school students’ perceptions related to causes and preventions of suicide and the learning needs of suicide prevention. Methods: A descriptive qualitative approach was employed in this study. Purposive sampling was used to select 32 adolescents for focus group discussions and ten adolescents for in-depth interviews. Data were collected from September 2019 to March 2020 and analyzed using content analysis. Results: Causes of suicide included seven sub-categories: parents’ expectations of children’s academic achievement, bullying, family problems, teenage love, lack of stress management skill, imitation behavior on social media, and substance use behavior. Suicide prevention consisted of five sub-categories: peer support, parental support, school support, health professionals and significant support, and knowing the value and believing in self. In addition, students’ learning needs had two sub-categories: developing online learning platforms regarding suicide prevention and mental health promotion and prevention projects. Conclusion: The findings of this study could guide nurses and other health professionals to develop a suicide prevention program for secondary school students. The study results could also be used as essential evidence for driving health care policy in promoting and preventing suicide in adolescents with the involvement of key stakeholders.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the study of modern approaches to determining the suicidal risk of an individual and preventing its recurrence at the level of the education system. Based on the theoretical analysis of scientific literature and practical recommendations for the prevention of suicidal behavior, it has been established that many researchers in various fields of science – psychology, medicine, education, and sociology - have been engaged in the problem of preventing suicidal behavior. An analysis of modern approaches to the prevention of suicide risk, in the education system particularly, allows us to conclude that interdepartmental prevention should be carried out comprehensively.

While vaccines are now authorized for use against the SARS-CoV2 virus, they remain inaccessible for much of the world and widespread hesitancy persists. Ending the COVID-19 pandemic depends on continued prevention behaviors such as mask wearing, distancing, hand hygiene, and limiting large gatherings. Research in low- and middle-income countries has focused on the prevalence of adherence and demographic determinants, but there is a need for a nuanced understanding of why people do or do not practice a given prevention behavior. The Breakthrough ACTION project led by Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs conducted a qualitative study in November 2020 in Côte d’Ivoire to explore people’s experience with and perceptions of the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted 24 focus group discussions and 29 in-depth interviews with members of the general population and health providers. This analysis explores barriers and facilitators to seven recommended prevention behaviors with a particular focus on response efficacy, self-efficacy, and social norms. We found these constructs to be salient for participants who generally felt that the behaviors were useful for preventing COVID-19 but were difficult to practice for a variety of reasons. The perception that COVID-19 prevention behaviors were anti-social emerged as a key theme. Behavior change interventions must reframe the recommended behaviors as pro-social, while making them very easy to practice by removing social and structural barriers such as the expense or inaccessibility of masks and hand sanitizer.

To solve it, it is proposed to use socio-psychological technologies in working with deviant adolescents. The definition of deviant behavior and offense is given, their main forms and types are highlighted. Modern directions and types of prevention of deviant behavior are noted: personal, family, social prevention. Theoretical approaches to the prevention of socially dangerous, deviant behavior are highlighted. Various technologies for the prevention of deviant behavior are listed and characterized. According to the author, socio-psychological technologies are effective, and the prevention of deviant behavior of adolescents based on them implies the presence of several areas of socio-psychological activity and the necessary actions of a psychologist specialist. New and specific are the socio-psychological forms and technologies of preventive work related to the international experience and practice of "restorative justice”. These are technologies of “mediation, circles of care, family and school conferences”.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose: This study aimed to identify the influential factors of nursing home nurses that impact fall-prevention behaviors, thereby providing basic data to prepare effective measures that can increase nurses’ fall-prevention behaviors. Method: The participants were 136 nurses from 4 long-term care hospitals with more than 200 beds. The relevant data were collected from August 2 to August 31, 2021, and analyzed using independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, and Multiple Regression. Result: The factors that had a significant impact on the fall prevention behaviors of participants included not only the perception of patient safety culture (β=.18, p=.039) and the age (β=.21, p=.046) but also the perceived seriousness (β=.22 p=.012), the perceived barrier (β=-.17, p=.044), and the motivation of action (β=.18, p=.028), which are the sub-domains of fall-prevention behavior health beliefs. The regression model was revealed to be significant, and the total explanatory power of the variables for fall-prevention behaviors was 44.5% (p<.001). Conclusion: The influential factors on fall prevention behaviors of long-term care hospital nurses included perception of patient safety culture, fall-prevention behavior health beliefs, and age. This study has significance in that the results helped identify the influential factors on nursing home nurses’ fall-prevention behaviors, thereby providing fundamental data for effective fall prevention behaviors.
