Brief Summary:
Aims The study aims to examine the effect of IHAPIM program on health perceptions health responsibilities perceived stress level attitudes towards utiling health care services and the types of coping strategies of immigrant men
Design This study is a two centre double-blind randomized controlled trial Methods We attempt to report this randomized controlled trial to comply with the SPIRIT The study population consist of 95 immigrant men live at north of Turkey The study between March 2020-March 2021 were held in the two district predominantly immigrants The participants were randomly divided into experimental and control group The experimental N 49 received a short-term IHAPIM program 5 week 1 hr per week 10 hr in total Measurements were obtained during pre- and post-test from experimental and control group N 46 In this study participants and statistician who conducted the research blinded
Discussion The efficacy of health promotion interventions are known However the health promotion interventions for immigrants men performed by public health nurse are not available At the same time the effect of health promotion interventions for immigrants men are unknown
Impact This study is expected to provide a piece of credible evidence of the the health promotion interventions for immigrants men performed by public health nurse and efficacy of health perceptions health responsibilities perceived stress level attitudes towards utiling health care services and the types of coping strategies in immigrant men group It is assumed that health promotion interventions specific to male health and sensitive to the language of immigrants lead to a beneficial results on health perceptions health responsibilities perceived stress level attitudes towards utiling health care services and the types of coping strategies in immigrant men If IHAPIM program perform in practice by public heath nurse It can be effectively improve immigrant mens health variables such as health perceptions health responsibilities perceived stress level attitudes towards utiling health care services and the types of coping strategies

Detailed Description:
This study was carried out in order to examine the effect of the Increasising Health Awareness Program for Immigrant Men IHAPIM which was prepared based on the Transition Theory of Meleis on the health perceptions health responsibilities perceived stress levels attitudes towards utiling health care services and the types of coping strategies of immigrant men
This study which was planned in accordance with the principles of a randomized controlled double-blind pre-test post-test control group experimental study was conducted with immigrant males between the ages of 18 and 50 living in Canik and İlkadım districts of Samsun where immigrants live mainly The randomized clinical trial was based on the guidelines proposed by the SPIRIT 2013 Statement The data of the study were collected in Samsun Ilkadım and Canık District between May 2020 and November 2020 Randomization an experimental group and a control group formed using the research randomizer software the program used random numbers to select participants and randomly assign them to the experimental or control group total 95 immigrant men In this study immigrant men do not know that they are in the experimental or control group and the statistician who conducted the research does not know which data belong to which group Blinding is done in this way The study was completed with 49 men in the experimental group and 46 men in the control group The experimental N 49 received a short-term IHAPIM program by one-on-one interview 5 week 1 hr per week The data of the study were collected using personal information form health perception scale health responsibility sub-dimension of healthy lifestyle behaviors scale perceived stress scale stress coping methods scale and the scale of determining the attitudes of immigrants towards using health services
personal information form the form was developed by the researcher and consists of questions involving sociodemographic characteristics age marital status education status etc health perception scale Health perceptions of immigrant men were evaluated with a visual number scale There is a question on the scale Information on how to fill the scale as parentheses information at the end of the question scored between 1-10 which is easy to understand which immigrant men can answer on their own 0 on this scale indicates that you evaluate your questioned situation very badly the increase of the score is improving your assessment of your questioned situation and the 10 score is shows that your assessment of your situation is very good
health responsibility sub-dimension of healthy lifestyle behaviors scale In measuring the level of responsibility for an individuals health the healthy lifestyle behaviors scale which was developed by Walker Sechrist and Pender in 1987 and adapted to Arabic in 1998 by Hadad et al is the scale that determines the extent to which they participate in health All items of the healthy lifestyle behaviors scale are positive There is no reverse matter Marking is done on 4 Likert type scales A score of 1 is given for an answer Never 2 points for an answer Sometimes 3 points for an answer Often and 4 points for an answer Regularly Health responsibility sub-dimension of healthy lifestyle behaviors scale 2 7 1520283133424346 It consisted of a total of 10 items including items The lowest score is 10 the highest score is 40 The reliability coefficients of the scale are α 090
perceived stress scale The Perceived Stress Scale developed by Cohen Kamarc and Mermelstein 1983 is the most commonly used tool of this type Chaaya et al In 2010 its validity and reliability in Arabic was made The scale consists of 10 items It was developed to evaluate to what extent the individual perceived his life as unpredictable uncontrollable or overloaded in the last month The scale is in the 5-point Likert type 1- never 2- almost never 3- sometimes 4- often 5- very often and its four items are reverse 4th 5th 7th 8th items six of its articles are plainly worded 1st 2nd 3rd 6th 9th 10th items The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 0 and the highest score is 40 The scale is evaluated over the total score and the higher the scores indicate that the stress is perceived high The Arabic reliability coefficients of the scale are α 087
types of coping strategies The study of the Ways of Coping Inventory scale developed by Folkman and Lazarus 1980 in order to determine the ways individuals use to deal with general or significant stress situations the Arabic validity and reliability was conducted by Alghamdi 2020 The Coping with Stress Scale consists of two groups 14 sub-dimensions and 28 items as compatible and incompatible Harmonious coping methods active coping positive reframing planning acceptance religion humor using emotional social support support using useful social support using instrumental support incompatible coping methods behavioral disengagement denial substance use focusing on the problem and venting mental self-distraction self-blame The Likert-type scale scored between 1 and 4 does not have a total score Arabic validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted in 2018 and the reliability coefficient was found to be α 080 in the Arabic version of the scale
the scale of determining the attitudes towards utiling health care services Developed in Arabic by Avci and Korkmaz in 2019 in order to determine the attitudes of immigrants towards using health services the scale for determining the attitudes of immigrants towards using health services consists of 26 items The scale consists of 4 sub-dimensions health awareness factors affecting admission to health services delivery of health services and access to health services Answers given to each statement in the scale are in 5-point Likert type and all statements are positive Scores obtained from sub-dimensions between 4-20 points for health awareness sub-dimension Between 4-20 points for the factors affecting the application to health services sub-dimension It ranges between 5-25 points for the sub-dimension of the way health services are provided and 5-25 points for the sub-dimension of access to health services The total scores obtained from the scale range from 18 to 90 points The fact that the scores obtained from the scale subscale and the total score are high indicates that the immigrants have a good attitude towards using health services Cronbachs alphas in the validity and reliability study of the scale are as follows Cronbachs Alpha reliability coefficient of the health awareness sub-dimension 063 the Cronbachs Alpha reliability coefficient 073 of the factors affecting admission to health services the Cronbachs Alpha reliability coefficient of the sub-dimension of how health services are provided 060 and Cronbachs Alpha reliability coefficient of access to health services sub-dimension is 071 The total Cronbachs alpha reliability coefficient of the scale for determining the attitudes of immigrants towards using health services is 072
