摘要:

ABSTRACT:Lack of valid measurement remains a major obstacle in research and evaluation of health education programs. An alcohol attitude scale for teen‐agers developed by the author was found to be a valid tool for researchers. However, because of the length of the scale, it was not a feasible device for practitioners in health education. In this study, a shorter form of the scale was developed. An alcohol attitude scale for teen‐agers, composed of 54 Likert‐type items, was reduced to produce a short form. Stepwise discriminant function analysis of the data identified 19 items that were the greatest discriminators between heavy drinking and nondrinking teen‐agers. For the purpose of cross‐validation, the short form of 19 items was administered to a representative sample of more than 1,250 teen‐agers in several midwest school districts. The collected data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate statistical methods for providing evidence of validity and reliability of the short form. Results demonstrated highly significant levels of internal consistency and discriminating power of items and the total scale. The short form of the attitude scale for teen‐agers was found to be a valid and reliable instrument for use as an alternative to the longer alcohol attitude scale from which i

摘要:

ABSTRACT:This evaluation assessed the effect of Hale and Hardy's Helpful Health Hints preschool health education curriculum on the health knowledge of children ages three‐six. The sample consisted of nine experimental preschool programs (n = 194) and three comparison preschool programs (n = 73). A picture identification test assessed children's pretest and posttest health knowledge of the five senses, safety, nutrition, dental health, personal responsibility, emotions, hygiene, and drugs/medicines. Posttest knowledge scores increased by 22% among experimental group preschool programs and 12% among comparison group preschool programs. Significant differences (p<.01) were found between experimental and comparison group students. Findings provide direction in research efforts to define conditions in which preschool health education is optimally effectiv

摘要:

ABSTRACT:The extent of use of activity structures in high school health education classes was examined. Twenty health educators from high schools in a large southwestern city agreed to have their classes observed on four separate occasions. Trained individuals observed, coded, and timed various classroom activities using a standardized coding form. Across all 80 observations, most classroom time was spent in Teacher Presentation of Content (23.4%), Seatwork (23.1%), or Media Presentation (15.6%). Little classroom time was used in Student Presentation (.3%) or Behavioral Presentation (.02%). The project goal was to provide baseline observational data into health education classroom activities. From this initial quantitative description of activity structures, correlational and experimental studies can be designed to link these activity patterns with student outcomes in health instruction.(J Sch Health 1989;59(9):393–39
