THE EFFECT OF THE EDUCATION PROGRAM BASED ON THE HEALTH BELIEF MODEL ON THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY BELIEFS AND BEHAVIOR OF FIRST YEAR STUDENTS OF THE FACULTY OF NURSING

June 9, 2024 updated by: AYLA AYKAC KOCAK, Aydin Adnan Menderes University
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of the Health Belief Model-Based Education Program on the Physical Activity Beliefs and Behaviors of First Year Students of the Faculty of Nursing using a randomized controlled experimental research method.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The research was conducted in a randomized controlled manner between December 2022 and October 2023, among first-year students of the faculty of nursing who wanted to participate in an education program based on the health belief model. The study was completed with a total of 121 students, 60 in the experimental group and 61 in the control group. The health belief model-based exercise training program was implemented with the students in the experimental group for 5 weeks and follow-ups were made at the 3rd and 6th months. No intervention was made to the students in the control group. Experimental and control group data were collected with the Student Personal Information Form, Exercise Health Belief Model Scale and International Physical Activity Short Survey Form. Data were evaluated with descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney-U, Chi-square, Independent Sample T Test, Paired Sample Test and ANOVA analysis.
