| Research Abstract |
This study investigated the effects of educational intervention on behavior in young adults. The amount of physical activity, diabetes knowledge, and preventive health behavior were measured or surveyed, and subjects attended health education sessions with emphases on the complications and methods for preventing diabetes. Fifty first-year university students participated in the study. The measurement of physical activity and questionnaire on diabetes knowledge and preventive health behavior were conducted in the intervention and control groups before and after intervention. The intervention group attended health education sessions with an emphasis on the health threat of the complications of diabetes. The surveys were quantified using questions in "Diabetes knowledge" developed for the 2007 National Health and Nutrition Survey and the Preventive Health Behavior Scale developed by Munakata. Step count, amount of exercise, and total calories burned were measured as physical activities. The surveys and physical activity measurement showed a significant increase in the scores for diabetes knowledge and the amount of physical activity in the intervention group after intervention, in comparison to the baseline(p<0.001). Both groups showed a significant increase in the preventive health behavior scores after intervention(p<0.05). The findings suggest the effectiveness of the health education program with emphases on both the complications of diabetes as threat appeal and methods for preventing diabetes as a coping strategy.
