This infection causes papillary and/or follicular inflammation of the tarsal conjunctiva referred to as active trachoma. Active trachoma prevalence among 1 to 9 years old children is 27.2% in Fogera district (study area). Many people still require the implementation of the face cleanliness components of the SAFE strategy. Even if face cleanness is an important component to prevent trachoma, there is limited research done on this area. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to assess behavioral responses to face cleanliness messages to prevent trachoma among mothers having children aged 1 to 9 years old.Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted with the guidance of an extended parallel process model in Fogera District from December 01 to December 30, 2022. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 611 study participants. Interviewer administered questionnaire was used to collect the data. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis was done to identify predictors of behavioral responses using SPSS V.23 significant variables were declared by AOR at a 95% confidence interval and a p-value < 0.05.Result: Among the total participants, 292 (47.8%) were in danger control. Residence [AOR = 2.91; 95% CI: (1.44– 3.86)], marital status [AOR = 0.79; 95% CI: (0.667– 0.939)], level of education [AOR = 2.74; 95% CI: (1.546– 3.65)], family size [AOR = 0.57; 95% CI: (0.453– 0.867)], round trip to collect water [AOR = 0.79; 95% CI: (0.423– 0.878)], having information about face washing [AOR = 3.79; 95% CI: (2.661– 5.952)], Source of an information health facility [AOR = 2.76; 95% CI: (1.645– 4.965)], school [AOR = 3.68; 95% CI: (1.648– 7.530)], health extension workers [AOR = 3.96; 95% CI: (2.928– 6.752)], Women development army [AOR = 2.809; 95% CI: (1.681– 4.962)], knowledge [AOR = 2.065; 95% CI: (1.325– 4.427)] self-esteem [AOR = 1.013; 95% CI: (1.001– 1.025)], self-control [AOR = 1.132; 95%CI: (1.04– 1.24)], and future orientation [AOR = 2.16; 95% CI: (1.345– 4.524)] were found to be statistically significant predictors of behavioral response.Conclusion: Less than half of the participants were in the danger control response. Residence, marital status, level of education, family size, face-washing information, source of information, knowledge, self-esteem, self-control, and future orientation were independent predictors of face cleanliness. Strategies of face cleanliness messages should give high attention to perceived efficacy with consideration of perceived threat.Keywords: trachoma, face cleanliness, behavioral response, extended parallel process mode

Application of behavioral change theory and models on COVID-19 preventive behaviors, worldwide: A systematic review
No full textObjective: This systematic review aimed to assess the global application of behavioral change theory and models on COVID-19 preventive behaviors. Methods: This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses procedure. Databases such as PubMed/MIDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus, EMB ASE, World Health Organization libraries, and Google Scholar were used to search all published articles in the area of application of behavioral change theory and model on COVID-19 preventive behavior until October 1, 2022. Studies published in another language other than English were excluded. Two independent reviewers did the article selection and quality check. A third reviewer asked if any disagreement were found. Result: Seventeen thousand four hundred thirty-six total articles were retrieved from all sources after the removal of duplicated articles and those not evaluating the outcome of interest were excluded. Finally, 82 articles done using behavioral change theory and model on COVID-19 preventive behaviors were included. The health belief model (HBM) and theory of planned behavior (TPB) were most commonly used in COVID-19 preventive behaviors. The constructs of most behavioral theories and models were significantly associated with COVID-19 preventive behaviors such as hand washing, face mask use, vaccine uptake, social isolation, self-quarantine, social distance, and use of sanitizers. Conclusion: This systematic review summarizes comprehensive evidence on the application of behavioral change theory and model on COVID-19 preventive behaviors globally. A total of seven behavioral change theories and models were included. The HBM and TPBs were most commonly used for COVID-19 preventive behaviors. Therefore, the application of behavioral change theory and models is recommended for developing behavioral change interventional strategies

No full textObjective: The human immunodeficiency virus has become one of the world’s most serious health and development challenges. Human immunodeficiency virus prevention has not received sufficient attention, and the prevalence of human behavioral virus infections among Ethiopian high school and preparatory students has also increased. The aim of this study was to assess behavioral responses to condom use messages to prevent human immune virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome among Bahir Dar city high school and preparatory students using the extended parallel process model, Bahir Dar, Ethiopia, 2022. Methodology: This institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from 15 November to 15 December 2022, in Bahir Dar city. The data were collected from 601 participants. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Data were entered into Epi-Info version 7.2.5 and exported to SPSS version 26 for analysis. Descriptive statistics, percentages, and frequencies were calculated. Bivariable logistic regression was performed to identify variables candidates for multivariable logistic regression at p -values less than 0.25, and multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated with the outcome variable at p- values < 0.05. A 95% confidence interval and odds ratio were used for the interpretation of the association. Result: The response rate of the respondents was 94.9%. The behavioral response for condom use messages was affected by grade level adjusted odds ratio, 0.473, 95% CI (0.252–0.886), knowledge adjusted odds ratio, 2.627, 95% CI (1.788–3.859), attitude adjusted odds ratio, 3.19, 95% CI (2.145–4.744), efficacy adjusted odds ratio, 3.286, 95% CI (2.03–5.339), and threat adjusted odds ratio, 0.249, 95% CI (0.167–0.369). The behavioral response for condom use messages was associated with danger control. Conclusion: The danger control response is 60.9%. Grade level, knowledge, attitude, and perceived and threat efficacies were independent predictors of danger control. Therefore, messages must aim to enhance threat component perception with appropriate efficacy to control danger and developed using scientific health communication strategies to promote behavioral change
