Background: The generation of the waste and collection, processing, transport and disposal of waste -theprocess of ‘waste management’ - is important for both health’s of the public and aesthetic and environmentalreasons. The study uncontrolled hazards waste from the industry after mixing with municipal waste createpotential risk to human health. Objectives: 1. To assess the knowledge and practice regarding household wastemanagement among the rural community 2. To Assess Effectiveness of Planned Teaching on Knowledge andPractice Regarding Household Waste Management among the Rural Community People in Selected Area ofWardha District. 3. To correlate the study finding with demographic variable. Materials and Methods: Thisstudy was based on one group pre-test post-test experimental research study. The population was the ruralcommunity people from Sawangi and Salod in the Wardha district. The subject consisted of 50 communitypeople of 18-50 years of age in the selected rural community of Wardha district. Results: The minimumscore in the posttest was 13 and the maximum score was 18, the mean score for the posttest was 16.04±1.10with a mean percentage score of 89.11±6.14. The tabulated value for n=50-1 i.e. 49 degrees of freedom was2.00. The calculated ‘t’ value is much higher than the tabulated value at 5% level of significance for overallknowledge score of community people which is a statistically acceptable level of significance.
Background: Waste disposal and collection, processing, transportation and dumping of waste - the 'waste management process' - is important for both public health and aesthetic and environmental reasons. The study uncontrolled hazards waste from the industry after mixing with municipal waste create potential risk to human health.
Objectives: 1. A Study to Assess An Immediate Effectiveness of Planned Teaching on Knowledge and Practice Regarding Household Waste Management among the Rural Community People in Selected Area of Wardha District. 2. To associate the knowledge and practice among the community people in a selected area of Wardha district regarding household waste management. Materials and Methods: This study was based on one group pre-test post-test experimental research study. The population was the rural community people from Sawangi and Salod in the Wardha district. The subject consisted of 50 community people of 18-50 years of age in the selected rural community of Wardha district.
Results: The minimum score in the posttest was 13 and the maximum score was 18, the mean score for the posttest was 16.04±1.10 with a mean percentage score of 89.11±6.14. The tabulated value for n=50-1 i.e. 49 degrees of freedom was 2.00. The stated value of 't' is much higher than the value tagged at a value level of 5% at the general public knowledge level which is a statistically acceptable level of value.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
