Abstract:

Health is a basic human need as described in Law No. 36 of 2009, which is considered physically, mentally, and socially that enables everyone to live productively. One indicator that reflects health in the community is the health behavior carried out by individuals in the community itself. Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) is an approach model that can be used to predict a person's healthy behavior. This research is a literature study that aims to explain the theory and various forms of PMT applications. The PMT consists of a threat appraisal that is individualized based on disease susceptibility and perceived severity. The way an individual chooses to respond to a threatening situation is based on two beliefs, namely 1) implementing a behavior that will resolve the threat (response efficacy) and 2) the individual's belief about his or her ability to perform the behavior effectively (self-efficacy). Fear will elicit an adaptive response (intention to perform a behavior) or a maladaptive response (avoidance or rejection). The PMT framework is used to explain healthy human behavior where it is fear that is used to control or change a person's behavior. PMT applications can be used not only in the health sector but also in other fields. PMT application is not only used to identify behavior but also for maladaptive behavior intervention.

Abstract:

Protection motivation theory (PMT) is one of the most commonly used theories to examine information security behaviors. Our systematic review of the application of PMT in information systems (IS) security and the comparison with its application for decades in psychology identified five categories of important issues that have not yet been examined in IS security research. Discussing these issues in terms of why they are relevant and important for IS security, and to what extent IS research has not considered them, offers new research opportunities associated with the study of PMT and IS security threats. We suggest how future studies can approach each of the open issues to provide a new road map for quantitative and qualitative IS scholars.

Abstract:

Purpose Health tourism is recognised as a recent new pattern of taking a break while accessing health-care services overseas. Past studies have explored this research area, but few have focussed on the theoretical perspective. Applying an appropriate theoretical model to guide interventions in planning and programme development is crucial, particularly when the focus of the study is on the cognitive mediation processes of change in individual behaviour. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the protection motivation theory with the influence of threat appraisal and coping appraisal. The purpose is to trigger the behavioural intention to engage in international health tourism. Design/methodology/approach A total of 299 international tourists participated in the survey. The partial least squares structural equation modelling technique was used to test the research framework. Both the measurement model and the structural model were assessed as adequate. Findings The empirical results demonstrate that tourists’ high risk perception must be complemented by coping ability to produce a motivational response. Further, the adaptive behaviours of international tourists are focussed more on perceived efficacy than on the perception of threats related to behavioural intentions towards health tourism. Originality/value The study presents an effective theoretical model intervention applicable to health tourism. Future studies should conduct a more comprehensive assessment to generate strong decision-making effectiveness from the theoretical model.

Abstract:

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to apply protection motivation theory (PMT) to brick-and-mortar salespeople's responses to customers' fear appeals.Design/methodology/approachThe approach is to develop a conceptual model for the effect of customers' fear appeals on brick-and-mortar salespeople.FindingsPMT relates to the influence of customers' fear appeals on brick-and-mortar salespeople's behaviours. The salesperson's decision whether to follow a retail manager's suggestion about ways to mitigate a customer's fear appeal depends on believed threat severity, believed threat susceptibility, response efficacy, self-efficacy and response costs.Research limitations/implicationsPMT is applied to a new domain: brick-and-mortar salespeople. Although a powerful yet universal emotion, only limited research has examined fear within this group.Practical implicationsUnderstanding salespeople's fears will help retail managers identify strategies for encouraging adaptive behaviours and deterring maladaptive behaviours by salespeople.Originality/valueA model relating customers' fear appeals to salespeople's behaviours is introduced.

Abstract:

<abstract> <p>Variants of COVID-19 have sparked controversy regarding mask and/or vaccine mandates in some sectors of the country. Many people hold polarized opinions about such mandates, and it is uncertain what predicts attitudes towards these protective behavior mandates. Through a snow-ball sampling procedure of respondents on social media platforms, this study examined skepticism of 774 respondents toward these mandates as a function of the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) of health. Hierarchical linear regressions examined Protection Motivation (PM) as a predictor of mask and vaccine mandate skepticism independently and with political party affiliation as a control. PM alone accounted for 76% of the variance in mask mandate skepticism, <italic>p</italic> < 0.001 and 65% in vaccine mandate skepticism, <italic>p</italic> < 0.001. When political affiliation was entered (accounting for 28% of the variance in mask mandate skepticism, <italic>p</italic> < 0.001, and 26% in vaccine mandate skepticism, <italic>p</italic> < 0.001), PM still accounted for significant percentages of variance in both mask (50%) and vaccine (43%) mandate skepticism, <italic>p</italic>s < 0.001. Across regressions, perceived severity, outcome efficaciousness, and self-efficacy each directly accounted for unique variance in mask and vaccine mandate skepticism, <italic>p</italic>s < 0.001; only perceived vulnerability failed to account for unique variance in the regressions, <italic>p</italic>s > 0.05. Specifically, the more severe participants perceived COVID-19 to be and the greater the perceived efficacy of masks and vaccines preventing the spread of COVID-19, the lower participants' skepticism toward mask and vaccine mandates. Similarly, the higher participants' self-efficacy in wearing masks or receiving the vaccine, the lower their skepticism toward mask and vaccine mandates.</p> </abstract>

Abstract:

Farmers are among the most common work groups at risk of skin cancer. The protection motivation theory has been widely accepted as a framework for predicting health related behaviors. This study was conducted to determine the role of factors preventing skin cancer among farmers in Eslamabad-e Gharb district, Iran, using the protection motivation theory. In this descriptive study, 280 farmers living in this district were studied from May to June 2017. Using cluster random sampling methods, health houses where farmers received health care were selected. Each farmer within the selected health house was then enrolled into the study using simple random sampling. Data were collected by interview using an author-developed questionnaire. The questionnaire ascertained demographic information and constructs of the protection motivation theory. Almost half of the farmers had a history of sunburn (56.4%). With regard to prevention, a small proportion reported using sunscreen (8.6%), hats (3.2%), gloves 3.9%, sunglasses 4.6%, and protective clothing 15.4%. The results of regression analyses showed that with one unit of increase in the scores of self-efficacy to adopt prevention behavior and perceived protection motivation resulted in an increase in the mean score of the “protective” behavior by 0.26 and 0.20, respectively. Working conditions among farmers place them at great risk and skin cancer prevention is essential. Intervention and prevention programs should fully identify the determinants of skin cancer prevention in farmers; in addition, the identified effective factors must be taken into account when designing and implementing appropriate interventions.

Abstract:

Latar belakang: Menstruasi yang dikenal dengan nama haid atau datang bulan merupakan perubahan fisiologis dalam perempuan yang terjadi secara berkala dan dipengaruhi oleh hormon reproduksi, yang dimulai dari menarche sampai menopouse. Kelainan atau gangguan yang ada hubungan dengan menstruasi diantaranya premenstrual tension (ketegangan sebelum haid), mastodinia (rasa nyeri pada payudara), mittelschmerz (rasa nyeri saat ovulasi), dan dysmenorrhea (rasa nyeri saat menstruasi). Nyeri haid (dysmenorrhea) adalah salah satu kelainan yang menyebabkan perempuan muda pergi ke dokter untuk berkonsultasi dan berobat. Nyeri haid atau disebut Dysmenorrhea adalah nyeri yang biasanya timbul pada masa remaja, yaitu sekitar 2 sampai 3 tahun setelah menstruasi pertama. Nyeri haid merupakan keluhan yang sering dialami remaja pada bagian perut bawah (Kusmiran, 2013). Nyeri haid membuat perempuan tidak bisa beraktivitas secara normal dan memerlukan resep obat. Keadaan tersebut menyebabkan menurunnya kualitas hidup perempuan, sebagai contoh mahasiswi yang mengalami nyeri haid primer tidak dapat berkonsentasi dalam belajar dan motivasi belajar menurun karena nyeri yang dirasakan. Tujuan: Untuk melihat serta mengevaluasi perilaku pada penderita nyeri haid (dysmenorrhea) dalam melakukan perilaku protektif (protection motivation theory). Metode: Penelitian yang bersifat evaluatif yang bertujuan untuk melihat kerasionalan penanganan nyeri haid (dysmenorrhea) pada mahasiswi Fakultas Kesehatan Universitas Sari Mulia Banjarmasin. Pendekatan yang digunakan pada desain penelitian ini adalah cross sectional study dimana data dikumpulkan pada satu waktu tertentu. Pengambilan data dilakukan di Fakultas Kesehatan Universitas Sari Mulia Banjarmasin pada bulan April-Mei 2021. Hasil: Pada project kali ini telah dilakukan riset terhadap Evaluasi Penanganan Nyeri Haid (Dysmenorrhea) dengan Protection Motivation Theory. Kami menyebarkan 21 pertanyaan dan mendapatkan 80 responden dari berbagai jurusan dan semester yang ada di fakultas kesehatan, yaitu 51,2% mahasiswi farmasi, 28,7% mahasiswi keperawatan, 13,7% mahasiswi kebidanan dan 6,3% mahasiswi promosi kesehatan. Dari 80 responden tersebut pula terdiri atas 52,5% mahasiwi semester 4, 31,3% mahasiswi semester 2, 12,5% mahasiswi semeter 6 dan 3,7% mahasiswi semester 8. Rentang usia responden ialah berkisar antara 18-22 tahun. Kesimpulan: Responden melakukan usaha perlindungan diri dari nyeri haid (dysmenorrhea) yang dirasakan dengan cara melakukan terapi, baik secara farmakologi dan non farmakologi. Responden berusaha untuk melakukan pengobatan yang rasional seperti penggunaan dosis yang tepat, frekuensi, dan cara pakai yang tepat.

Abstract:

Security researchers and managers would like to know the best ways of introducing new innovations and motivating their use. This study applies Protection Motivation Theory to model the coping and threat appraisals that motivate Millennials, who are early technology adopters, to adopt or resist biometric security for system access. One hundred fifty-nine Millennials were given a hypothetical scenario in which system access would be enhanced by biometric security to strengthen user authentication. The authors model the results with PLS and find that Protection Motivation Theory provides a good explanation of the user’s perceptions of biometric security. The model suggests that the users’ protection motivation is influenced directly by the Perceived System Response Efficacy of the biometric system and indirectly by Perceived Effort Expectancy, Perceived Computer Self-Efficacy, Perceived Privacy Invasion and Perceived System Vulnerability. Implications and limitations of the model are discussed.

Abstract:

Background/Aims The protection motivation theory is a common framework illustrating the use of protective behaviours. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of the protection motivation theory questionnaire for fall prevention in older people in Iran. Methods This study used a psychometric design. A literature review was initially performed and developed a 35-item questionnaire consisting of eight sub-constructs of the protection motivation theory. A panel of experts and a group of older people aged 60 years or above were invited to assess the content and face validity of the questionnaire. Thereafter, construct validity was evaluated by using confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability of the questionnaire was examined using test–retest reliability and internal consistency. Data analysis was performed using the partial least squares path modelling version three software. Results A total of 300 people living in retirement centres completed the questionnaire. In the expert panel review, all tasks received a content validity index above 0.90 and a content validity ratio above 0.80, representing good content validity. In total, 32 items remained in the final version of the questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed an acceptable eight-factor model fit of the protection motivation theory sub-constructs with factor loadings from 0.59 to 0.93. The discriminant validity was verified using the Fornell–Larcker criterion. The Cronbach's alpha ranged from 0.68 to 0.90 and the test–retest reliability ranged from 0.78 to 0.90, displaying an acceptable result. Conclusions The results of this study suggest that the protection motivation theory questionnaire had good validation and can be used to measure the psychological predictors of fall behaviour in older people. Further studies are needed to evaluate the validity in various settings.

Abstract:

Our planet's climate is changing (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2010), and current scientific evidence proves that global climate change is induced by humans (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2007). Many scientists agree that climate change is one of the greatest threats faced by our planet. The climate change literature demonstrates that fear appeals can be used to encourage behavioral changes that will mitigate climate change (Nisbet, 2009; Patchen, 2006; Pike, Doppelt, & Herr, 2010). This article proposes Protection Motivation Theory (PMT; Rogers, 1983) as a suitable model to guide communication campaigns in the area of climate change. It also analyzes the extent to which a series of communication campaigns that are designed to persuade individuals to adopt behaviors that prevent climate change conform to PMT. Recommendations to improve the campaigns are presented.

Abstract:

The present study aimed to identify the distinct classes of motivations to get vaccinated and to adopt preventive behaviors against the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among people in Taiwan and to examine the roles of Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) cognitive constructs in these unique classes of motivations to get vaccinated and to adopt preventive behaviors. We recruited 1047 participants by using a Facebook advertisement. Participants’ motivations to get vaccinated and to adopt preventive behaviors against COVID-19, PMT constructs of threat appraisal (perceived severity and perceived vulnerability), and PMT constructs of coping appraisal (self-efficacy, response efficacy, response cost, knowledge, and previous vaccination for seasonal influenza) were determined. We analyzed participants’ motivations to get vaccinated and to adopt preventive behaviors against COVID-19 by using latent profile analysis. The present study identified three latent classes, including the participants with high motivation for vaccination and preventive behaviors (the class of Both High), those with low motivation for vaccination and preventive behaviors (the class of Both Low), and those with high motivation for vaccination but low motivation for preventive behaviors (the class of High Vaccination but Low Preventive Behaviors). Compared with the participants in the class of Both High, participants in the class of Both Low had lower levels of perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, self-efficacy to have vaccination, response efficacy of vaccination, knowledge about vaccination, and previous vaccination for seasonal influenza; participants in the class of High Vaccination but Low Preventive Behaviors had lower levels of perceived vulnerability and perceived severity but higher levels of response cost of vaccination. We concluded that varieties of motivations, threat, and coping appraisals should be considered in intervention programs aiming to increase motivation to adopt recommended protective behaviors against COVID-19.

Abstract:

There are many hidden safety hazards in homemade food due to an absence of food preparation and storage knowledge, and this has led to many food safety incidents. The purpose of this study was to explore the influencing factors of consumers’ food risk communication behavior on social media in northeast China, using the protection motivation theory. We integrate the Suan Tang Zi food poisoning accident and the protection motivation theory to develop a conceptual model to predict food safety risk communication on social media. We conducted a questionnaire which adapted measures from the existing Likert scales. A total of 789 respondents from northeast China participated in this study. We tested our hypotheses using a structural equation model. Results show that perceived severity, perceived vulnerability and self-efficacy have a significant influence on consumer protection motivation. Response efficacies have a positive impact on consumer protection motivation, but response barriers have a negative impact on consumer protection motivation. Additionally, information need and protection motivation of consumers have a significant impact on food safety risk communication on social media. Overall, the protection motivation theory accounted for 71% of the variance in food safety risk communication on social media. Practical implications and suggestions are proposed for the related stakeholders, as well as consumers, to encourage the public to participate in the food risk communication in this study. The research findings presented the social media as a kind of food risk communication channel contributes to consumers acquire accurate information on food quickly, in turn, reduce the probability of food poisoning in daily life. Protection motivation theory may provide some insights into how we can increase the rate of food safety risk communication on social media.

Abstract:

The research aims to investigate the emotional response and protective behaviors of domestic tourists’ post-pandemic period and their holiday intentions or holiday avoidance behaviors. For this reason, understanding tourist behavior during and after significant tourism crises is critical for the recovery of the tourism industry. To achieve this aim, first, we examine the effects of perceived vulnerability and perceived severity factors in the threat appraisal of domestic tourists, the effects of the response efficacy, response cost, and self-efficacy factors in the coping appraisal, and the effects of fear and hope factors as the anticipatory emotion responses regarding protection motivation. Second, we measure the effect of protection motivation on the factors of taking a vacation and avoiding a vacation, which constitute behavioral intention. This study applies the health-related protection motivation theory to explore how domestic tourists’ behavioral intentions are influenced by Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the post-pandemic period. The study includes citizens residing in Türkiye who have had at least one-holiday experience in the last five years. Online questionnaire surveys were administered to 1391 domestic tourists. In the research, in addition to testing the validity and reliability of the scales, simple linear regression analysis was used to test the model based on the hypotheses experimentally. The results show that factors have internal consistency reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity. Response cost and hope variables are ineffective in predicting the protection motivation, and all other effect sizes (f2) are positive. All hypotheses have been supported. However, the response cost (β = −0.029, p > 0.05) has no effect on protection motivation, thus only one is rejected. As a result, domestic tourists would like to maintain the assurance of their health and safety during a holiday. An integrated model with protection motivation theory and different theories as theory of planned behavior should be implemented. As a result, this will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the complexity involved in the sustainable behavioral intentions in the post-COVID era.

Abstract:

The development and use of nanotechnology in the food industry (nanofood) have grown steadily. While visions for nanofood suggest that the applications will improve quality and safety, they are also controversial for several reasons including potential health risks coupled with difficulty in assessing low-dosage nanoparticle risks as well as values-based objections. In recent years, debate over nanofoods has sparked inquiry into factors that predict public attitudes and purchase intentions. Such studies have investigated the roles of demographics and sociographics, value predispositions toward science and technology, preferences for natural products, trust in regulatory agencies, scientific knowledge, and media attention. This study assesses the role of each of these factors in shaping public attitudes toward nanofood and improves the predictive models by evaluating concepts from protection motivation theory. We find that incorporating threat and coping appraisals provides the best predictive models of public attitudes and intention to purchase nanofood products.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: A major barrier to older adult (65+) over-the-counter (OTC) safety is the lack of actionable research on factors affecting older adult decisions during OTC selection. This goal of this study is to develop and validate a survey instrument based on the Protection Motivation Theory to measure older adults perceived risk of OTCs. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The 24-item OTC Protection Motivation survey underwent revision using a consult from the UW Survey Center as well as rigorous cognitive interviewing and pilot testing with 8 older adults. It was administered to 103 community-dwelling older adults. OTC misuse data was gathered from 15 of the participants. OTC misuse evaluated by three pharmacy experts on the basis of OTC appropriateness given participants age, existing conditions, concurrent medication use, and intention to adhere to label guidelines. Multivariate linear regression was used to examine the relationship between OTC misuse and protection motivation. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used to determine a model of best fit to describe the factor structure of the OTC Protection Motivation survey. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The EFA yielded a 5-factor model of protection motivation, which included the components of deliberative risk perception, a combination of experiential and affective risk perception, threat severity, protective behavior intent, and perceived efficacy in protective behavior engagement. The EFA-based item reduction resulted in a final 18-item OTC Protection Motivation survey. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Older adults, who have the lowest health literacy levels, are responsible for 30% of OTC medication use and 61.5% of emergency department visits due to adverse drug events. This study is the first to characterize the relationship of OTC protection motivation and OTC misuse to inform patient-centered interventions for older adult OTC safety.

Abstract:

Backgrounds.The aim of this study was to describe the preventive behaviors of industrial workers and factors influencing occupational cancer prevention behaviors using protection motivation theory.Methods.A self-administered questionnaire was completed by 161 petrochemical workers in Iran in 2014 which consisted of three sections: background information, protection motivation theory measures, and occupational cancers preventive behaviors.Results.A statistically significant positive correlation was found between PM and self-efficacy, response efficacy, and the cancer preventive behaviors. Meanwhile, statistically significant negative correlations were found between PM, cost, and reward.Conclusions.Among available PMT constructs, only self-efficacy and cost were significant predictors of preventive behaviors. Protection motivation model based health promotion interventions with focus on self-efficacy and cost would be desirable in the case of occupational cancers prevention.
