The effect of educational intervention based on protection motivation theory in improving reproductive health protective behaviors: a quasi-experimental study.
Background: Reproductive health has broad implications for individuals, families, and society. This study aims to explore how an educational intervention, centered around PMT, can enhance reproductive health protective behaviors among female students.
Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on female students of Khomein University of Medical Sciences in Markazi Province, Iran, from December 2023 to August 2024. A random cluster sampling method was used for sampling, resulting in 51 female students being selected for the intervention group and 54 female students for the control group. The data collection tool was a researcher-developed questionnaire, which included demographic information and PMT constructs with confirmed validity and reliability. The educational intervention for the intervention group consisted of three one-hour sessions spaced one week apart, incorporating methods such as lectures, group discussions, Q&A sessions, brainstorming, role-playing exercises, as well as distribution of educational booklets. The collected data was then analyzed using various statistical methods including independent t-tests, t-tests, chi-square tests, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression models.
Results: After the intervention, the mean score for all constructs in the intervention group was higher than that of the control group, except for perceived cost. A statistically significant difference was noted in the mean scores of most constructs, such as perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived self-efficacy, protection motivation, fear, and behavior, between the two groups being studied (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The PMT-based educational intervention has proven to be effective in promoting reproductive health protective behaviors among female students. Given the significance of infertility issues and the value of preserving fertility in young women, it is recommended to implement PMT-based educational programs to safeguard women's reproductive health.
