Abstract

Background: Supporting smoking cessation at pharmacies can be challenging owing to difficulties in recruiting smokers to participate in cessation programs, insufficient communication skills among pharmacists, and lack of knowledge and self-efficacy in successfully quitting smoking in Japan.

Objective: This study evaluates the effectiveness of a smoking cessation training program on community pharmacists' knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy in supporting smoking cessation.

Methods: The study, conducted in Japanese pharmacies with 100 community pharmacists, employed a quasi-experimental design. Two online training programs were implemented. Participants completed a web-based survey assessing their knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy in supporting smoking cessation before, immediately after, and 1 year after the training program. A two-way analysis of variance with a mixed model was used to examine score changes at each time point.

Results: Total knowledge scores significantly increased between baseline and immediately after training and baseline and 1 year after training. The total attitude scores between baseline and immediately after training differed significantly. However, no differences were noted between baseline and 1 year after training. Total self-efficacy scores significantly increased at baseline, immediately after training, and between baseline and 1 year after training. Despite no significant interactions between the programs, there was a partial interaction effect on knowledge, with only the customized program having items whose knowledge levels improved after 1 year.

Conclusion and relevance: The training program improved community pharmacists' knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy regarding smoking cessation support. The customized program must be reinforced to improve support performance and maintain attitude.

戒烟教育计划对日本社区药剂师的知识、态度和自我效能的影响:一项准实验研究
背景:在日本,由于难以招募吸烟者参与戒烟项目、药剂师沟通技巧不足以及缺乏成功戒烟的知识和自我效能感,在药房支持戒烟可能具有挑战性:本研究评估了戒烟培训项目对社区药剂师支持戒烟的知识、态度和自我效能的影响:研究采用准实验设计,在日本药房对 100 名社区药剂师进行了培训。研究实施了两个在线培训项目。参加者在培训前、培训后和培训一年后分别完成了一项网络调查,以评估他们在支持戒烟方面的知识、态度和自我效能。采用混合模型的双向方差分析来考察每个时间点的得分变化:结果:知识总分在基线与培训结束后、基线与培训结束后一年之间有明显增加。态度总分在基线和培训后立即之间有显著差异。但是,基线与培训后一年之间没有差异。自我效能感的总分在基线、培训后立即以及基线与培训后一年之间都有显著提高。尽管培训计划之间没有明显的交互作用,但在知识方面存在部分交互作用,只有定制培训计划的项目在 1 年后知识水平有所提高:培训项目提高了社区药剂师在戒烟支持方面的知识、态度和自我效能。必须加强定制项目,以提高支持绩效并保持态度。
