These slimming centres use technology innovations as a medium to provide slimming treatments to the guests. This research examines the behavioural intention of the guests to experience the technology innovations in Malaysian slimming centres. Primary data were collected through a survey questionnaire handed to those guests who had experienced or were currently experiencing the technology innovations in slimming centres. For confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling, 308 data were used. The performance expectancy and facilitating conditions are the key influencing behavioural intentions for the guests to experience the technology innovations at slimming centres. On reflection, the effort expectancy and social influence do not directly encourage the guests to experience the slimming treatment. A high standard of performance expectancy and facilitating conditions that could be provided by the slimming centres encourage the guests to try and continuously experience the services provided. These two criteria should be the pillars to market the technology innovations of the slimming centres. This research has identified the main behavioural intentions for the guests to experience the technology innovations in slimming centres.","PeriodicalId":90540,"journal":{"name":"International journal of behavioural & healthcare research","volume":"6 1","pages":"200"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66661948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Primary (cross-sectional) data was gathered and used in this study. We applied a quantitative technique to evaluate relationships of interest, and the simple random sampling procedure was used to select 456 nurses across hospitals in Accra, Ghana. A self-reported questionnaire was used to gather data. Pearson's correlation test and structural equation modelling (SEM) were used to analyse data, with potential confounding variables controlled for. The structural SEM model produced a good fit at 5% significance level [χ2 = 1.543; p = 0.401]. Materialism made a significant positive effect on love of money and intention to quit (p < 0.05), while love of money did not predict the intention of nurses to quit. The study concluded that nurses' avoidance of materialism and love of money can be a way to reduce their intention to quit. Cutting back on the pay of nurses is however not a suitable way to discourage materialism and love of money, but programs can be instituted to motivate nurses to spend money productively and channel surplus income into high yielding provident funds.","PeriodicalId":90540,"journal":{"name":"International journal of behavioural & healthcare research","volume":"1 1","pages":"225"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66661778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this paper is to understand behavioural change in cholera prevention using the health belief model (HBM) in social marketing from a developing country context. The study collected data from 250 respondents in Accra. Reliability and validity analyses were conducted on the data, followed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) in SPSS, followed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) in AMOS version 22. Following the preliminary analyses, the data was subjected to multiple regression analysis to test the hypothesised relationships proposed in the model. The study found that, among the constructs of the HBM, perceived susceptibility, perceived barriers, cues to action and self-efficacy are statistically significant in explaining people's behaviour towards cholera prevention. This study has contributed significantly to social marketing literature by applying the HBM in social marketing on cholera prevention in the Ghanaian context.","PeriodicalId":90540,"journal":{"name":"International journal of behavioural & healthcare research","volume":"6 1","pages":"183"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66661910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a widespread practice among pregnant women in Kenya. Various hypotheses on geophagia have been advanced and there are conflicting views as to whether it is beneficial to health or not. Geophagia materials may be a source of micronutrients especially zinc and iron although the materials may bind some of these micronutrients consequently reducing or hindering their bioavailability in the body. This study focused on determination of prevalence rate of geophagia and factors influencing it, sources and types of consumed geophagia materials. The research design was descriptive cross-sectional study whereas data collection was by structured questionnaire and observations. A total of 431 pregnant women in various stages of pregnancy were recruited in the study. Both point and period prevalence rates of geophagia were determined to be 35% and 58% pregnant women respectively. There was a statistical significant difference in the prevalence rate among the geophagous pregnant women in the different trimesters of pregnancy (ρ = 0.00, x2 = 19.41). However there was no statistical significant difference in the prevalence rate among the geophagous pregnant women with different levels of education (ρ = 0.34, x2 = 4.51).","PeriodicalId":90540,"journal":{"name":"International journal of behavioural & healthcare research","volume":"6 1","pages":"28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66661699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
