AIM: The study's main objective was to use a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis to identify the configuration of recipes that predict nurses' safety compliance behaviour. DESIGN: A cross-sectional design. METHODS: A survey was used where questionnaires were collected from 285 nurses across four primary healthcare hospitals within the Ashanti Region, Ghana. The data collection happened between June 1 to August 2, 2022. A fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis was used to identify the recipes of psychological factors that determine nurses' safety compliance behaviour. RESULTS: Results from the study suggest that the necessary configurations that explained nurses' safety compliance behaviour came from the presence of subjective norm, attitude, perceived behavioural control, perceived organizational support and negation of intention. The result highlights the need for safety protocols to be conscious of the interplay between nurses' assessment of self, social clues and perception of management care and support since such psychological factors must be considered concurrently to achieve the optimal safety compliance behaviour among nurses. CONCLUSION: A health and safety protocol that fails to recognize the importance of psychological antecedents on subordinates' safety compliance behaviour could limit the safety policy's usefulness in bringing the appropriate behavioural change in nurses. IMPACT: To date, no study has combined the antecedents of theory planned behaviour with perceived organizational support and cue to action to assess how they collectively predict nurses' safety compliance behaviour. Findings from the study suggest that nurses in primary health facilities inform their safety compliance behaviour by assessing self-capabilities, social signals from superiors and colleagues and perception of management support. Hospital administrators and nursing managers in sub-Saharan Africa may rely on these psychological forces to persuade nurses to develop positive safety compliance behaviour at the health facility.

Community prevention involves a number of processes that aim to enrich the lives of community members and promote a balance between a community’s resources and its needs. When working within the community, the community becomes the client, with its specific capacities, resources, needs, and characteristics. Prevention work in the community includes needs analysis based on epidemiological data, capacity building, the development of strategic plans, the implementation of policies, strategies, and prevention programmes, and evaluation. The paper provides an overview of approaches to prevention in the community, places the Development and Implementation of a Pilot Community-based Prevention Programme, with Emphasis on the Risk Behaviour of Children and Youth project in the context of community-based preventive work, and presents tools to support the principle of a decentralised approach to prevention.

Objectives: Generation Z, defined as "post-millennial," is considered to be the first generation that could end smoking. The objective is also to take into account the evolutionary aspect of the smoking and attitudes of the Generation Z. The aim of this study was to explore the willingness of Generation Z in Slovakia to comply with the legislation adopted in the field of anti-tobacco policy and to investigate some selected social factors-intention, subjective norm and percevied behavioral control-that contribute to a lower rate of compliance. Methods: Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) data on cigarette smoking among 3,557 adolescents (age range 13-15) in 2016 as well as on attitudes towards tobacco use and control measures were used to explore the level of compliance of adolescents with anti-tobacco regulations in Slovakia within the Framework Convention of Tobacco Control (FCTC). We used the concept of intention as explained in Ajzen's theory of planned behaviour (1985), focusing on the role of subjective norm and perceived behavioural control. Results: We found a decrease in ever smoking, current smoking and frequent smoking. We found that these adolescents start experimenting with dependence-causing substances, such as tobacco, regardless of existing rules. Conclusion: Adolescents were attracted to smoking, although they were aware of health effects of passive smoking, and a vast majority liked smoke-free places. They are also influenced by their peers and parental models.

Programme interventionists often determine best practices from systematic reviews of the literature. Interpretations of findings from systematic reviews, however, are susceptible to subjective decisions of the authors. Replication of systematic reviews by different authors on the same topic can increase the authenticity of findings, analysis, and interpretations. The purposes of the current paper were to (a) replicate a systematic literature review using the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to understand the intention of adults living with physical disabilities to participate in PA, and (b) compare the findings with a published systematic literature review on the same topic. CINAHL, ERIC, SPORTDiscus, Medline, Psycinfo, and Pubmed databases were searched for eligible studies. A total of 11 articles were included for the current review. Intention was the strongest predictor for PA behaviour, with attitude and perceived behavioural control were also significant predictors for intention. Subjective norm had less influence but a distinct role shaping intention. A total of six of 11 studies overlapped with the comparison review. Selection of different studies were due to differences in search databases, search strategy, and inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inconsistency was also found in relationships among other components in the theory, with different interpretations made between the two reviews. The current replication review provides practical and research related implications that add to the understanding of the TBP for persons living with physical disabilities and the findings of the comparative review.

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Polypharmacy has a significant impact on patients' health with overall expenditure on over-the-counter (OTC) medicines representing a substantial burden in terms of cost of treatment. The aim of this study, which was conducted within the framework of a European Project funded by the European Union under the Seventh Framework Programme and was entitled OTC-SOCIOMED, was to report on possible determinants of patient behaviour regarding the consumption of medicines, and particularly OTCs, in the context of primary care. METHODS: A multicentre, cross-sectional study was designed and implemented in well-defined primary healthcare settings in Cyprus, the Czech Republic, France, Greece, Malta and Turkey. Patients completed a questionnaire constructed on the basis of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB), which was administered via face-to-face interviews. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The percentage of patients who had consumed prescribed medicines over a 6-month period was consistently high, ranging from 79% in the Czech Republic and 82% in Turkey to 97% in Malta and 100% in Cyprus. Reported non-prescribed medicine consumption ranged from 33% in Turkey to 92% in the Czech Republic and 97% in Cyprus. TPB behavioural antecedents explained 43% of the variability of patients' intention to consume medicines in Malta and 24% in Greece, but only 3% in Turkey. Subjective norm was a significant predictor of the intention to consume medicines in all three countries (Greece, Malta and Turkey), whereas attitude towards consumption was a significant predictor of the expectation to consume medicines, if needed. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: This study shows that parameters such as patients' beliefs and influence from family and friends could be determining factors in explaining the high rates of medicine consumption. Factors that affect patients' behavioural intention towards medicine consumption may assist in the formulation of evidence-based policy proposals and inform initiatives and interventions aimed at increasing the appropriate use of medicines.

Někteří lidé se na bolest adaptují dobře, zatímco jiní ne; podobné je to se zvládáním porodní bolesti. Právo ženy tišit porodní bolest i přes moderní technický pokrok v medicíně předpokládá nabídnout rodícím ženám i nefarmakologické prostředky zvládání bolesti a specifické zvládací strategie. Ženy samotné během porodu používají pro zvládání bolesti řadu copingových strategií. Předporodní vzdělávání poskytuje ženám příležitost připravit se před porodem na bolesti, které jsou s ním spojené. Nicméně se obvykle uskutečňuje na základě jen minimálního odkazu na literaturu, která se zabývá psychologickými faktory ovlivňujícími zážitek bolesti. Tento přehledný článek se proto snaží ukázat, jak může současný vývoj psychologických poznatků tuto péči zlepšit. Zejména oblast copingových strategií, faktory ovlivňující jejich využívání v praxi a efektivitu. Článek proto vychází z literatury, která se zabývá jak zvládáním akutní bolesti, tak zvládáním bolesti při porodu. V úvodu definuje coping, zaměřuje se především na aktivní copingové strategie (kognitivní i behaviorální) a jejich efektivnost při zvládání porodní bolesti. Zdůrazňuje posílení těch, které jsou při zvládání porodní bolesti adaptivnější, protože množství i typy strategií užitých ke zvládání porodní bolesti jsou velmi individuální a mohou být velmi pestré. Článek dále popisuje některé kognitivní teorie, které vnímají záměr chování jako klíčový prediktor pro výběr copingových strategií, a postoje lékaře, jež mohou výběr copingových strategií ovlivnit. V závěru článek zdůrazňuje nutnost plánování copingových strategií ke zvládání porodní bolesti a shrnuje vliv psychologických poznatků na zlepšení předporodního vzdělávání žen. Apeluje na nutnost promyšleného systému předporodní přípravy, kde by se zvládací dovednosti vyučovaly. Shrnuje doporučení pro realizaci efektivního předporodního vzdělávání: rozšířit copingové strategie o strategie založené na kognitivní bázi. Pomoci ženám najít a pochopit podstatu jejich vlastních zvládacích stylů včetně všech vzorů katastrofizování bolesti a objevit jejich vlastní zvládací strategie pro zvládání porodní bolesti. Posílit pocity vlastní zdatnosti pomocí praktické výuky a upevnit je pomocí podpory lektora. Pomoci ženě uskutečnit plán, který povede ke změně kontextu porodní bolesti. Aktivně podpořit posílení využívání copingových strategií také ze strany partnera rodičky. Výše uvedené předpokládá velmi úzkou spolupráci porodníka, anesteziologa, klinického psychologa, porodní asistentky a dalších zdravotníků při předporodní přípravě. Jsme si vědomi, že některá doporučení v tomto článku nebudou vždy uskutečnitelná za všech podmínek. Čtenáři ale předkládáme takový pohled na zvládání porodní bolesti, který by mohl posílit multidisciplinární péči nejen o rodičku, ale i těhotné a ženy po porodu.

While some people adapt well to pain, others do not. The same applies to coping with labour pain. Irrespective of the huge technical progress in medicine, a woman's right to pain relief should include the offer of non-pharmacological pain control resources and specific coping strategies. During childbirth women themselves manage pain using a range of coping strategies. Antenatal education provides an opportunity prior to birth to help women to prepare for an often painful event. But, this is usually carried out with little reference to the literature regarding psychological factors which influence the experience of pain. This review article seeks to consider how recent developments in psychological knowledge could enhance care. Especially the range of coping strategies and factors influencing their efficacy and implementation. That is why this article draws on the literature on coping with both acute pain and labour pain. The article starts with a definition of coping and focuses primarily on active coping strategies (both cognitive and behavioural) and their effectiveness in coping with labour pain. The article emphasises the strengthening of strategies that are more adaptive in coping with labour pain. The number and types of strategies used in coping with labour pain are individual and varied. The article further describes certain cognitive theories that understand the purpose of our behaviour as a key predictor in selecting coping strategies and attitudes of the doctor, which can influent choice of coping strategies. Finally, the article reconfirms the necessity of planning coping strategies in order to cope with labour pain and provides a summary of the influence of psychological knowledge on the improvement of women's prenatal education. Invokes a well designed system of prenatal preparation for the woman to learn the necessary coping skills. The article makes the recommendations for effective antenatal education: Increase the range of coping strategies to include cognitive based strategies. Help women to identify and understand the nature of their own coping styles including any patterns of pain catastrophizing and to develop their own coping strategies for labour pain. Intensify feelings of self-efficacy by practice and reinforcement by the help of the lector. In woman develop implementation intentions which account for the changing context of labour pain. Actively develop reinforcement of use of identified coping strategies also by partner of woman in childbed. Information mentioned above assume the very narrow cooperation of obstetrician, anaesthesiologist, clinical psychologist, midwife and other healthcare professionals on antenatal education. We realize that certain recommendations cannot always be implemented. Nevertheless, we believe that the view of coping with labour pain presented in this article might help the reader to understand the need for multidisciplinary care for women not only in labour, as well as multidisciplinary prenatal and postnatal care.

Studie se zabývá rozhodováním matek o vakcinaci svých dětí proti pneumokokovým nákazám. Danou otázku zkoumá pomocí kvantitativního on-line dotazníkového šetření (n=180) vycházejícího z teoretického rámce teorie plánovaného chování, již také aplikuje jako teoretický model formou logistické regrese. Teorie plánovaného chování se ukazuje jako dobrý prediktivní nástroj, přičemž nejvýznamnější determinantou záměru očkovat je postoj matek vůči očkování proti pneumokokům, jeden ze tří základních konstruktů teorie. Zbylé dva se jako vlivné neprojevily s určitostí (subjektivní norma) či vůbec (vnímaná kontrola chování). Jako vlivné se také ukazuje vnímání hrozby vedlejších účinků vakcíny, jedna z proměnných rozšiřujících původní teoretický model. Výsledky testovaných modelů podporují závěr, že postoj k očkování představuje základní determinantu rozhodnutí, a to zejména pro matky se záměrem neočkovat.

The study deals with the issue of mothers' decision-making regarding their child's vaccination against pneumococcal infections. An online survey of mothers (n = 180) was based on the theory of planned behaviour (TPB). A hierarchical logistic regression was used to test the theoretical model with the intention to vaccinate as the dependent variable. The theory proved itself as a strong predictive instrument. The results suggest that attitude is the main predictor of the decision. The subjective norm, as the second construct of the TPB, contributes only in certain cases and the perceived behavioural control was found to have no influence at all. The perception of vaccine-related contradictions is an important factor alongside that of attitude. These results support the idea that mothers, especially those who do not want to vaccinate their children against pneumococcal infections, primarily base their decision on their attitude.

Research has revealed that organic consumers share beliefs about positive health effects, environmentally friendly production and better taste of organic food. Yet, very little is known about the decisions of organic consumers in post-socialist countries with emerging organic food markets. In order to examine this area a representative data set (N=1054) from the Czech Republic was used. Target group of the study has become the Czech consumers that purchase organic food on regular basis. The consumers' behaviour was conceptualised with the use of the theory of planned behaviour (ToPB). Firstly, the ToPB model was tested, and secondly, belief-based factors that influence the decisions and behaviour of consumers were explored. The theory proved able to predict and explain the behaviour of Czech organic consumers. The best predictors of the intention to purchase organic food are attitudes towards the behaviour and subjective norms. Decisive positions in consumers' beliefs have product- and process-based qualities.
