Attitudes And Behavior

BACKGROUND: People mostly have the perception that tuberculosis is an unexpected disease to occur because it greatly hinders family development. The existence of this disease tends to break social interaction. This perception will affect the attitudes and behavior of those who will prevent this disease from occurring in their families and environment. AIM: This study aimed to determine the correlation between family attitudes and behavior with efforts to prevent infectious tuberculosis disease in the work area of Lembang Public Health, Majene, West Sulawesi. METHODS: This quantitative research was conducted through a cross-sectional approach. Based on total sampling, as many as 31 respondents who were part of families with tuberculosis were involved as samples. RESULTS: The bivariate analysis with the Chi-square test showed that the correlation between attitudes and TB prevention had a p = 0.301 (⍺ = 0.05). Then, the correlation of behavior with TB prevention had a p = 0.413 (⍺ = 0.05). CONCLUSION: Thus, no significant correlation was identified between family attitudes and behavior toward tuberculosis prevention.

Attitudes And Behavior

This research applies the binding communication model to the sustainable communication strategies implemented in most hotels. The binding communication model links a persuasive message with the implementation of a low-cost commitment to strengthen the link between the attitudes and behavior of those receiving the message. We compared the effectiveness of a classical communication strategy (n = 86) with that of a binding communication strategy (n = 101) to encourage guests to choose sustainable behavior. Our results show that using the binding communication strategy generates significantly more sustainable behavior in guests than using the classical communication strategy. We discuss our results and suggest future avenues of research.

Attitudes And Behavior

Abstract. The core aim of the present study is to compare the effects of a safety campaign and a behavior modification program on traffic safety. As is the case in community-based health promotion, the present study's approach of the attitude campaign was based on active participation of the group of recipients. One of the reasons why many attitude campaigns conducted previously have failed may be that they have been society-based public health programs. Both the interventions were carried out simultaneously among students aged 18-19 years in two Norwegian high schools (n = 342). At the first high school the intervention was behavior modification, at the second school a community-based attitude campaign was carried out. Baseline and posttest data on attitudes toward traffic safety and self-reported risk behavior were collected. The results showed that there was a significant total effect of the interventions although the effect depended on the type of intervention. There were significant differences in attitude and behavior only in the sample where the attitude campaign was carried out and no significant changes were found in the group of recipients of behavior modification.

Attitudes And Behavior

Abstract. Most employees participate in workplace meetings, and their experiences in meetings can vary greatly, which can lead to positive or negative effects on both job attitudes and behavior. In this study, we examined the effect that a meeting attendee’s competence in the meeting topic had on their participation in the meeting and their perception of meeting effectiveness. Results indicated those with higher levels of competence in the meeting topic were more likely to participate and through participation found their meeting more effective; this relationship was stronger when employee dissent in the meetings was high. Leaders should ensure that those who are present in a meeting are competent in the topic of the meeting and encourage them to participate.
