The communication for the health and his contributions from the pender model : communication and religious culture
Main Article Content
Abstract
In both study periods, an instrument was applied to measure the HPLP in both groups. Analyzing the impact of HPLP after six years showed a high level of efficiency of the communicative strategy of the program in the SDAW. We conclude that the communicative strategy used in the intervention was important for the positive changes during 2002 in which people adopted behaviours that promote healthful living, both in SDAW and in some dimensions of HPLP among NSDAW. The NSDAW showed a significant decrease in some dimensions of the HPLP. This study showed the importance of permanent reinforcement of behaviours. Throughout the follow-up time period and across the practice of the religion, SDAW maintained the healthful behaviours.
