The relative contribution of a theory-based intervention to modify high-risk behaviors in training programs is a major priority that remains an open question. Here, we tested whether the family-centered empowerment model used in the educational intervention was effective to modify high-risk behaviors of brucellosis via mother education. A quasi experimental study was conducted on 200 women presenting to healthcare practices in rural areas of Torbat-e Jam, Iran, from April 2020 to February 2021. Four rural areas were randomly assigned to the control and intervention groups. The intervention group received the training program, which included four 2-h sessions and consulting support via social network and messaging service. The control group did not receive any training. SPSS16 was implemented to test multiple statistical analyses. Our finding showed in the intervention group compared with the control group, knowledge, attitude, self-efficacy, self-esteem, and behavior outcomes were significantly changed (P < 0.001) across time during baseline through follow-up. Likewise, there are no differences (P > 0.05) in the change in construct of the family-centered empowerment model and risk behaviors in the control group from baseline to follow-up. Intervention based on a family-centered empowerment model is possible and very acceptable to modify high-risk behaviors of brucellosis by increasing an individual’s knowledge, changing attitude, and promoting self-efficacy and self-esteem.Trial registration: Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT), IRCT20160619028529N12.

Introduction: Stunting is one of the biggest nutritional problems in toddlers in Indonesia which is based on Nutrition Status Monitoring (PSG) data for the last three years. The factor that has a large influence on the incidence of stunting is the pattern of parental care when the child is at the age of 0-59 months. The aim of this study is to study stunting prevention from the perspective of the theory of the health promotion model Method: This study uses a literature review using PICOS framework. Articles were searched from 3 databases, namely PubMed, Sciencedirect, Proquest. The keywords used in the literature search were: 1) ((Stunting prevention) AND (pender's) OR (health promotion model), 2) Stunting prevention AND pender's OR health promotion model; 3) stunting prevention. The search is limited to publications in 2018-2022, free full text, in English, not Reviews. Then selected using the PRISMA diagram and obtained 14 articles. Quality assessment of 14 articles using JBI Critical Appraisal tools. Result: Seven articles stated that the determinant factor of stunting was the low education of parents (mothers) which resulted in poor parenting of children. Seven articles discussing the Health Promotion Model (HPM) theory can be used as a guide in providing education to improve health promotion. Conclusion: good parenting behavior can be improved by increasing the mother's knowledge by providing education using HPM theory as a basis
