Background: Hair salons have the potential to transmit various diseases, including infectious diseases like AIDS and hepatitis B and C, that can be transmitted through blood. This study was conducted with the aim of educational intervention based on the health belief model regarding preventive behavior of blood-borne diseases among female hairdressers in Rafsanjan, 2018-2019.
Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted on 70 hairdressers in two intervention and control groups. Data were collected using a questionnaire designed based on the health belief model. After conducting a pre-test in two groups, training sessions were held, and two months later, a post-test was conducted. The data were entered into SPSS 16 software and analyzed using chi-square, Fisher, independent, and paired t-tests, and descriptive statistics.
Findings: Following the educational intervention, the intervention group's scores on the variables of knowledge (93.88 ± 0.40), perceived sensitivity (59.91 ± 0.37), perceived intensity (61.91 ± 0.37) and benefits (20.97 ± 0.16), cues to action (20 ± 0.0) and self-efficacy (24.91 ± 0.37) increased significantly (P < 0.050) and perceived barriers (11.08 ± 0.37) decreased (P < 0.050), whereas in the control group, except the variables of knowledge (P = 0.005) and the structure of perceived benefits (P = 0.040), no increase was observed in the values of the other variables and no significant difference was observed (P > 0.050). According to the findings, behavior with the structures of knowledge (r = 0.57), attitude (r = 0.80), perceived sensitivity (r = 0.79) and perceived intensity (r = 0.50), perceived barriers (r = 0.78) and Perceived benefits (r = 0.57), self-efficacy (r = 0.76) and cues to action (r = 0.68) had a significant correlation.
Conclusion: The results of this research showed that there was a significant change in the constructs of the health belief model and the adoption of preventive behaviors against blood-borne diseases in the intervention group, so it is suggested to use this model in addition to routine training. Also in this study, the behavior had a significant correlation with the constructs of the Health Belief Model, confirming the relationship between the constructs in this model with the adoption of preventive behaviors against contracting blood-borne diseases.
