Factors predicting intention to practice for preventing hypertension in adults
Keywords:
intention to practice, prevention, hypertension, adultAbstract
This predictive research aimed to describe the relationships among attitude, subjective norm, positive and negative anticipated emotions, perceived behavioral control, past behavior, desire, and intention to practice for preventing hypertension, and the influence of selected factors on intention to practice for preventing hypertension in adults. The samples were 231 adults. Data were collected by two questionnaires consisting of 1) demographic data, and 2) the influencing factors of intention to practice for preventing hypertension questionnaire. Data were analyzed using stepwise multiple regression statistics.
The findings illustrated that intention to practice for preventing hypertension was positively and significantly correlated with attitude (p < .01, r =.40), subjective norms (p < .01, r=.38), positive anticipated emotions (p < .01, r=.40), perceived behavioral control (p < .01, r=.31), past behavior (p < .01, r=.18), and desire (p < .01, r=.47). Furthermore, attitude, perceived behavioral control, past behavior, and desire accounted for 30.1% of the total variance in the intention to practice for preventing hypertension among adults (p < .05, Adjusted R2=.301).
This study suggested that nurse should develop the program to promote adults’ behaviors for preventing hypertension, which aims to increase good attitude, boost perceived behavioral control, learning from past behavior, and increase desire of practice.
