This research includes two studies testing whether the Health Belief Model (HBM) constructs predict tobacco use intentions differently between heterosexual and lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) people. Focusing on cigarette smoking, Study 1 (n = 1808 U.S. adult current smokers) found that the perceived health threat and perceived benefits of smoking differently predicted intentions to continue smoking between heterosexual and LGB smokers. The perceived health threat of smoking had a weaker negative relationship and perceived benefits of smoking had a stronger positive relationship with smoking intentions among LGB smokers than heterosexual smokers. Focusing on vaping, Study 2 (n = 2801 U.S. adults) found that the perceived health threat and perceived barriers of vaping differentially predicted vaping intentions between heterosexual and LGB individuals. The perceived health threat of vaping only negatively predicted vaping intentions among heterosexual people. Perceived barriers to vaping had a stronger negative relationship with intentions to vape among LGB people than among heterosexual people. Our finding suggests that compared to perceptions of tobacco-related health consequences (perceived heath threat), behavioral perceptions (perceived benefits and barriers) may have stronger impacts on tobacco use intentions among LGB people. Thus, efforts focusing on reducing tobacco-related disparities among the LGB community should address perceived benefits and barriers of tobacco use.

Background. Breast cancer has become one of the most prevalent causes of mortality among Indonesian women. Better prognosis of breast cancer will be achieved if it is diagnosed in an earlier stage, thus efforts to detect breast cancer earlier are important. Breast Self-Examination (BSE) is considered as an important first step to encourage women to actively be responsible for their own health, especially for women in developing countries with limited resources and access to other forms of preventive healthcare. The present study aimed to predict BSE behavior among women in Surabaya, Indonesia using the HBM. Methods. This investigation was a cross-sectional survey which was distributed among 1,967 women aged 20-60 years. The Indonesian version of Champion’s Health Belief Model Scale (I-CHBMS) was used to explain self-reported BSE practice. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the association of HBM variables with BSE practice.Results Almost half of the sample (44.4%) had performed BSE. Further, the results indicated that the HBM variables were significantly associated with BSE practice. Specifically, higher perceived benefits and self-efficacy, lower perceived barriers and less cues to action were unique correlates of BSE behavior. The result also showed that perceived severity and susceptibility were not associated with BSE behavior. Conclusion. This study indicated that several HBM constructs significantly associated with BSE behavior among Indonesian women, suggesting that BSE health education programs should emphasize the perceived benefits of BSE, focus on increasing women’s self-efficacy to address and overcome perceived barriers in performing BSE, and help them in identifying personally relevant cues to action.

The Health Belief Model

A health belief model is used to evaluate people's beliefs about health problems and predict engagement in health-promoting behaviors. Overweight and obesity are health problems that could be corrected by healthier diet. Eighty-seven employees of the Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital participated in a month-long program that offered 500-calorie vegetarian meals. The health belief model questionnaire was designed and administered. Body composition (weight, body mass index, body fat, body water, and muscle mass) was measured weekly. Additionally, the number of meals taken and visits to nutrition consultants were analyzed. Overall, a higher perceived susceptibility was related to a decrease in weight, body fat, and muscle. Higher perceived benefits or higher perceived barriers were both related to a decrease in weight and body fat, but to an increase in body water and muscle. In the overweight or obese group, a significant correlation was found between perceived barriers and weight. No significant relationship was found between the health belief model and the total number of meals or number of visits to nutrition consultants. Perceived benefits and barriers were significantly related to changes in weight, body fat, body water, and muscle. With vegetarian meal plans as the cue for action, the health belief model can be utilized to predict changes in body composition.

Abstract Background Breast cancer has become one of the most common causes of mortality among Indonesian women. Many women in Indonesia present with late-stage breast cancer, negatively affecting prognosis and treatment outcomes. Better prognosis of breast cancer will be achieved if it is diagnosed in an earlier stage, thus efforts to detect breast cancer earlier are important. Breast Self-Examination (BSE) is considered as an important first step to encourage women to actively be responsible for their own health, especially for women in low-and middle-income countries with limited resources and access to other forms of preventive healthcare (e.g., screening programs). The present study aimed to predict BSE practice among women in Surabaya, Indonesia using the Health Belief Model (HBM). Methods This investigation was a cross-sectional survey which was distributed among 1967 women aged 20–60 years. The Indonesian version of Champion’s Health Belief Model Scale (I-CHBMS) was used to explain self-reported BSE practice. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the association of HBM variables with BSE practice. Results 44.4% of the respondents indicated they had performed BSE. Further, the results indicated that the HBM variables were significantly associated with BSE practice. Specifically, higher perceived benefits and self-efficacy, lower perceived barriers and less cues to action were unique correlates of BSE practice. The result also showed that perceived severity and susceptibility were not associated with BSE practice. Conclusion This study indicated that several HBM constructs significantly associated with BSE practice among Indonesian women, suggesting that BSE health education programs should emphasize the perceived benefits of BSE, focus on increasing women’s self-efficacy to address and overcome perceived barriers in performing BSE, and help them in identifying personally relevant cues to action.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is the second cause of cancer-related death among women. Prevention programs insist on the early diagnosis and screening to reduce the mortality rate.AIM: The study was conducted to determine the predictors of breast cancer screening behaviours based on the health belief model.MATERIAL AND METHODS: The present cross-sectional study was conducted by involving 304 women ranging from 20 to 65 years of age, living in East Guilan cities, the North of Iran, in 2015 using two-stage cluster sampling. The research instrument was Champion's Health Belief Model Scale. The data were analysed based on Regression test by using SPSS software version 18.RESULTS: The results showed perceived benefits (ExpB = 1.118, p = 0.009), self-efficacy (ExpB = 1.122, p = 0.001) and the perceived barriers (ExpB = 0.851, p = 0.001) as the predictors of breast self-examination. In addition, the study revealed that the two components of perceived benefits (ExpB = 1.202), and the perceived barriers were the predictors of mammography (ExpB = 0.864) (p = 0.001). None of the health belief model components showed a role to predict clinical breast examination (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: The present study highlights the need for educational programs, which should focus on increasing breast self-exam skills and understanding the benefits of healthy behaviours and eliminating their barriers.

BACKGROUND The control of vaccine hesitancy and the promotion of vaccination are key protective measures against COVID-19. OBJECTIVE This study assesses the prevalence of vaccine hesitancy and the vaccination rate and examines the association between factors of the health belief model (HBM) and vaccination. METHODS A convenience sample of 2531 valid participants from 31 provinces and autonomous regions of mainland China were enrolled in this online survey study from January 1 to 24, 2021. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify the associations of the vaccination rate and HBM factors with the prevalence of vaccine hesitancy after other covariates were controlled. RESULTS The prevalence of vaccine hesitancy was 44.3% (95% CI 42.3%-46.2%), and the vaccination rate was 10.4% (9.2%-11.6%). The factors that directly promoted vaccination behavior were a lack of vaccine hesitancy (odds ratio [OR] 7.75, 95% CI 5.03-11.93), agreement with recommendations from friends or family for vaccination (OR 3.11, 95% CI 1.75-5.52), and absence of perceived barriers to COVID-19 vaccination (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.35-0.75). The factors that were directly associated with a higher vaccine hesitancy rate were a high level of perceived barriers (OR 1.63, 95% CI 1.36-1.95) and perceived benefits (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.32-0.79). A mediating effect of self-efficacy, influenced by perceived barriers (standardized structure coefficient [SSC]=−0.71, <i>P</i>&lt;.001), perceived benefits (SSC=0.58, <i>P</i>&lt;.001), agreement with recommendations from authorities (SSC=0.27, <i>P</i>&lt;.001), and agreement with recommendations from friends or family (SSC=0.31, <i>P</i>&lt;.001), was negatively associated with vaccination (SSC=−0.45, <i>P</i>&lt;.001) via vaccine hesitancy (SSC=−0.32, <i>P</i>&lt;.001). CONCLUSIONS It may be possible to increase the vaccination rate by reducing vaccine hesitancy and perceived barriers to vaccination and by encouraging volunteers to advocate for vaccination to their friends and family members. It is also important to reduce vaccine hesitancy by enhancing self-efficacy for vaccination, due to its crucial mediating function.

Introduction: Health Belief Model is one of the factors that influence medication adherence. The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified medication adherence as the primary indication of treatments effectiveness for hypertensive patients. The number of medication adherence on people with hypertension is decreasing in the world, including Indonesia. Objective: The aims of this paper was to examine the relationship between perceived susceptibility to develop the complications of hypertension, perceived severity of hypertension complications, perceived benefits of medication adherence, perceived barriers to medication adherence and medication adherence. Result: There were significant statistically relationships between perceived susceptibility to develop the complications of hypertension, perceived severity of hypertension complications, perceived benefits of medication adherence, perceived barriers to medication adherence and medication adherence. Discusion: The patients who have high perceptions about susceptibility to develop the hypertension complication, severity of the complications of hypertension, the benefit of medication adherence, reduce barriers to medication adherence more likely adhering to their medications.

The initial entry of Covid-19 in Muna was 8 cases with the highest number of cases in Southeast Sulawesi. This study aims to determine the behavior of preventing Covid-19 by implementing health protocols at the Transportation Service Office based on the theory of the health belief model. This study uses a qualitative design with a phenomenological approach. Data collected through in-depth interviews, observation and documentation. The results based on the Perceived suspectibility factor informants know that people who are susceptible to Covid-19 are people who are old, people who work in community services. Based on Perceived saverity, the informant said that Covid-19 is a pandemic so it is dangerous because of its transmission, and if infected with Covid-19 it can worsen the condition of people who have congenital diseases. Based on Perceived benefits, informants feel the perceived benefits of implementing health protocols in addition to preventing Covid-19 are also useful for daily life. For Perceived barriers, informants feel obstacles in implementing health protocols such as the use of masks because of the small amount of air they breathe. Meanwhile, the Threat factor, informants feel that when they do not apply the health protocol, they feel afraid or anxious. Self-efficacy informants feel confident in carrying out health protocols because they feel safe. Conclusions based on the theory of health belief model, it is concluded that perceived vulnerability factors, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, threats and self-efficacy indicate the behavior of implementing health protocols at the Transportation Service Office in preventing Covid-19.
