Objective: A Health Belief Model seems promising as a framework for examining contraceptive behavior. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of application of a Health Belief Model on changing mothers' beliefs regarding birth spacing in rural areas. Methods: Design: A quasi experimental pre-post-test design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of application of a Health Belief Model on changing mothers' beliefs regarding birth spacing. Subjects: A simple random sample of 150 postpartum women were selected from the Maternal Child Health centers at El Hmoul and Shobra Blola villages, Menouf at Menoufia Governorate, Egypt. Instruments: (1) A Birth Spacing Interview Questionnaire to assess socio demographic data, reproductive history, knowledge about birth spacing, and mothers' practices regarding birth spacing; (2) Perceived Benefits Questionnaire to assess a Health Belief Model constructs such as perceived susceptibility, seriousness, benefits, barriers, health motivation and cues to action. Results: It was illustrated that regarding the perception of benefits of using contraception, 94% of the subjects agreed that benefits outweighed side effects and 100% of the subjects agreed that using contraceptive improved maternal health. Regarding the perception of barriers of using contraceptives, 90% of the subjects disagreed that using contraceptive increased their susceptibility to cancer. Conclusions: Application of a Health Belief Model proved to be effective in changing the health beliefs about birth spacing.

Abstract-Leadership styles play an important role to enhance employee's information security awareness and may lead to proper information security compliance behavior. Therefore, the current study aims to investigate the indirect effect of leadership styles on user's information security policies compliance behavior through the extent of information security awareness. Questionnaires survey were done among health Statistical results confirm that transactional leadership style has a direct effect to all information security awareness factors, but the mediation effect on the relationship between transactional leadership and user's information security policies compliance behavior through two intervening variables (severity awareness and benefit of security-countermeasure). Meanwhile, transformational leadership style has a direct effect on benefit of security-countermeasure and no mediation effect with the extent of all the intervening variables. The research findings found that severity awareness and benefit of security-countermeasure awareness were significant predictors of information security policies compliance behavior while susceptibility awareness and perceived barrier were insignificant. Our findings were proven to be beneficial to fellow researchers and management of the organization, especially related to the medical sectors in improving current standards of information security awareness in hospitals.Index Terms-Transformational leadership, transactional leadership, information security awareness, health belief model, information security policies compliance behavior.

“…24 It has been posited that providing an individualized contraceptive counseling process has the potential to change behavior, but evidence of the impact of individualized counseling on contraceptive method choice and use outcomes is mixed. 13,[28][29][30][31] The research that does exist on priorities, [25][26][27] with some exceptions, 32 has not looked at how priorities about method characteristics align with contraceptive method choice. In a sample of women with multiple sociodemographic characteristics associated with contraceptive nonuse (urban, low-income, Hispanic ethnicity), contraceptive histories, contraceptive priorities, and other preferences that may affect method choice (such as childbearing intentions and desire to keep a method private) are examined in this paper.…”

“…3,24 Several studies have examined the characteristics of contraceptive methods that are priorities among women at risk of unintended pregnancy, with effectiveness, avoidance of side effects, and ease of use frequently cited as the most important factors in a contraceptive method. [25][26][27] Patients and providers face challenges in identifying an available method that meets all of an individual's contraceptive priorities. 26 The use of contraceptive methods that are unsatisfactory to the user increases the likelihood of discontinuation or inconsistent use, increasing the risk of unintended pregnancy.…”
