ABSTRACT:
The current study aimed to assess the effectiveness of self-structured module on knowledge regarding prevention of home accidents among mothers of under five children in selected rural area at Bilaspur Chhattisgarh. Pre-experimental one group pre test, post test research design was utilizing to achieve the stated. Objective. 1.To assess the pre-test and post-test knowledge score regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five children. 2. To assess the effectiveness of self-structured module on knowledge regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five children. 3. To find out the association between post-test level of knowledge score regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five years. children with their selected socio demographic variable. Hypothesis: To examine the following objective hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. H1: There will be significant difference between Pretest and post test level of knowledge score regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five children. H2: There will be significant association between post test level of knowledge score regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five children. Projected Outcome/Hypothesis: For the present study Pre experimental one group pre test, post test design is utilized to achieved the stated objective. The study was based on the conceptual framework based On J.W. Kenny’s Open System Model is to assess the effectiveness of self-structured module on knowledge regarding prevention of home accidents among mothers of under five children. A quantitative research approach is used pilot study was conducted to confirm the feasibility of the study and determine the reliability of the tool. For main study consecutive sampling was done on 60 sample of mothers of under five-year children regarding prevention of home accidents among mothers of under five children The data was analysed using the descriptive and inferential statistics where the result shows. The Split Half Method was used to the reliability of the tool, the test was forts divided into two equivalent halves and correlation for the half was found. By using Spearman Brown Formula, the estimated reliability of the entire test were calculated. Hence, the computed coefficient value was R = 0.89, reliability was established. Their liability of them ensuring instrument is a major criterion for assessing the quality and adequacy. The findings related to prevention of home accident among the mothers of under five-year children Pre experimental one group pre test -post test design The obtain data was analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. The knowledge score in pre test and post test are 457 and 909 respectively out of 1000. The total mean and mean score percentage of pre test and post test are 7.61 & mean percentage is (12.69%), total mean of post test is 15.15 & mean percentage is (25.25 %). The mean difference between pre-test and post-test knowledge score is 8.33 and the standard deviation of pre test and post-test is 2.300 and post 4.202 respectively. Study reveals that there was a significant difference between pre test–post test knowledge score and criteria wise analysis of pretest and posttest level of knowledge score by frequency and percentage regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five year children, pre test reveals that majority of subjects 75% (45) have average knowledge, 1.66% (1) have poor knowledge & 23.33% (14) have good knowledge. In post test majority of subjects 75% (45) have good knowledge, 25% (15) have average knowledge & none of them have poor knowledge regarding prevention of home accident. The knowledge score was related to effectiveness of self-structured module on knowledge regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five year children. The overall mean, mean percentage of pretest score is 7.61 (12.69%) with standard deviation 2.300 & overall mean, mean percentage of post test score is 15.15 (25.25%) with standard deviation 4.202 respectively standard error was 0.60. The effectiveness of self-structured module was significant. Difference between pre test–post test level of knowledge regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five-year children calculated Z value is 12.55 was greater than the table value 2.00 at 0.05 level of significance, which proves the effectiveness of self-structured module was effective in increasing the knowledge of mothers of under five year children, hence it was effective. Chi-square was calculated to find out the significant association between the post test knowledge score of Mothers of under five-year children with their selected socio demographic variables accepted. It reveals that there was a significant association found between the post test knowledge score regarding prevention of home accident among mothers of under five-year children and socio demographic variables are accepted for age, occupation, sources of information, type of house.
