| Summary: | 博士 === 高雄醫學大學 === 護理學研究所 === 101 === In order to promote college women’s understanding of HPV prevention and implement appropriate measures, it is necessary to provide college women with a unique education program. According to the framing message principles, this research demonstrated the HPV prevention education program through an application of the Theory of Planned Behavior to explore the effectiveness of education programs on behavioral intention for HPV prevention for adolescent women. HPV prevention education project relied on framing message principles to conduct experimental groups (a positive-message group and a negative-message group) and a control group (not receiving health education) using quasi-experimental design. The positive-message group received gain-framed teaching, negative-message group received loss-framed teaching, and control group did not receive HPV prevention teaching. The different effect for adolescent women in HPV prevention knowledge, attitude toward HPV prevention, perceived behavioral control, perceived risk and behavioral intentions effects were compared between the experimental groups by either positive- or negative-message group and the control group as well as two experimental groups. A convenience sample of 481 college women aged 15 to 16 years from three nursing schools in Southern Taiwan was recruited.
The present findings show that HPV framed teaching enhanced adolescent women'' HPV-related knowledge, attitude toward HPV prevention, perceived behavioral control, perceived risk and behavioral intentions. However, there was no significant difference in the effectiveness for intervention between two types of HPV framed teaching (gain-framed teaching and loss-framed teaching). In addition, comparing three HPV prevention methods in adolescent women’s behavioral intentions, adolescent women were significantly more intent to use condoms than receive HPV vaccination and Pap testing. In order to promote adolescent women to maintain sexual health against HPV infection, HPV-related knowledge and implementation of positive behavior intentions should also be improved. The results of this study may be used as the reference to school health education and young women’s health policy-making.
