“…The first three factors, namely "Knowledge", "Self-efficacy", and "Attitude toward brucellosis prevention", explained about 35% of the total variance. This finding strongly approves the conceptual framework of PRECEDE model within which, predisposing factors were considered to have a significant role in performing a healthy behavior (3,(28)(29)(30).…”

Background: According to WHO, brucellosis is one of the 7 neglected zoonotic diseases and a major challenging issue for public health. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the PRECEDE model-based scales for brucellosis prevention (PRECEDE-MSBP). Methods: In this cross-sectional study conducted in 2015, stratified random sampling was employed to recruit 420 rural residents in Ahar county, Iran. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to develop the initial draft of PRECEDE-MSBP. Face, content, and construct validity and reliability were determined. Results: Applying Exploratory Factor Analysis, the optimal solution including 37 items and 7 factors for Educational and Ecological diagnosis, 5 items and 2 factors for Environmental diagnosis, and 9 items and 3 factors for Behavioral diagnosis were emerged, which accounted for 60.43%, 56.51%, and 53.75% of the total variances, respectively. Appropriate validity, reliability, functionality, and simplicity were demonstrated for PRECEDE-MSBP. Conclusions: Researchers and health care providers interested in brucellosis prevention may apply the PRECEDE-MSBP inventory as a suitable instrument to provide the best information while conducting brucellosis prevention need assessments for their interventional efforts. However, further studies applying this instrument are needed in order to compare the different aspects of PRECEDE-MSBP in different communities.

“…The result of the regression analysis shows self-rated health was the most important factor for the day center attendees' perceived social status, which concurs with the findings in studies on social status in other populations (2,44). Self-esteem was the second most important factor in the regression analysis in this study and together with health constitutes a necessity for reaching the highest steps on the perceived social ladder.…”

Introduction: The main challenge for achieving universal health coverage in India is ensuring effective coverage of poor and vulnerable communities in the face of high levels of income and gender inequity in access to health care. Drawing on the social capital generated through women's participation in community organizations like SHGs can influence health outcomes. To date, evidence about the impact of SHGs on health outcomes has been derived from pilot-level interventions, some using randomised controlled trials and other rigorous methods. While the evidence from these studies is convincing, our study is the first to analyse the impact of SHGs at national level. Methods: We analyzed the entire dataset from the third national District Level Household Survey from 601 districts in India to assess the impact of the presence of SHGs on maternal health service uptake. The primary predictor variable was presence of a SHG in the village. The outcome variables were: institutional delivery; feeding new-borns colostrum; knowledge about family planning methods; and ever used family planning. We controlled for respondent education, wealth, heard or seen health messages, availability of health facilities and the existence of a village health and sanitation committee.
