暴力侵害儿童行为是对儿童权利的侵犯，在中低收入国家普遍存在，对儿童的功能产生长期负面影响，并造成高昂的经济和社会成本。因此，结束家庭和学校的真空吸尘是全球公共卫生的首要任务。在牙买加，我们在76所幼儿园进行了一项随机分组试验，评估了一项幼儿期、教师培训和暴力预防计划（入江教室计划）。该方案导致教师使用VAC的情况大幅减少，尽管大多数教师有时继续使用VAC。在本文中，我们描述了一种混合方法的评价，在38牙买加幼儿园被分配到等待名单的对照组的试验入江课堂教学。在定量评估中，38所幼儿园的108名幼儿教师在前测时被评估，37所幼儿园的91名教师在后测时被评估。从这37所幼儿园的每一个幼儿教师被随机选择参加了深入的访谈，作为定性评价的一部分。幼儿教师在参加该计划后的一个上学日内使用VAC的情况减少了83%，尽管观察到68%的教师在两天内至少使用一次VAC。定性评价证实了这些调查结果，所有教师都报告使用暴力减少，但70%的教师报告有时继续使用VAC。教师报告说，用于提供干预措施的行为改变技术提高了他们的动力、知识和技能，从而改善了儿童行为，改善了关系，提高了职业福祉。减少教师使用真空吸尘器的直接途径是改善儿童行为和教师福祉。继续使用暴力协助教学法的主要原因是教师在使用积极的纪律方法时遇到障碍、教师的负面影响以及教师认为严厉的儿童行为。我们描述了我们如何使用混合方法评估的结果，为该计划的修订提供信息，以进一步减少教师使用VAC，并为培训，监督和持续监测的过程提供信息，因为该计划通过政府服务扩大规模。
Violence against children (VAC) is a violation of child rights, has high prevalence in low- and middle-income countries, is associated with long-term negative effects on child functioning, and with high economic and social costs. Ending VAC at home and at school is thus a global public health priority. In Jamaica, we evaluated an early childhood, teacher-training, violence-prevention programme, (the Irie Classroom Toolbox), in a cluster-randomised trial in 76 preschools. The programme led to large reductions to teachers' use of VAC, although the majority of teachers continued to use VAC at times. In this paper, we describe a mixed-method evaluation of the Irie Classroom Toolbox in the 38 Jamaican preschools that were assigned to the wait-list control group of the trial. In a quantitative evaluation, 108 preschool teachers in 38 preschools were evaluated at pre-test and 91 teachers from 37 preschools were evaluated at post-test. One preschool teacher from each of these 37 preschools were randomly selected to participate in an in-depth interview as part of the qualitative evaluation. Preschool teachers were observed to use 83% fewer instances of VAC across one school day after participating in the programme, although 68% were observed to use VAC at least once across two days. The qualitative evaluation confirmed these findings with all teachers reporting reduced use of violence, but 70% reporting continued use of VAC at times. Teachers reported that the behaviour change techniques used to deliver the intervention increased their motivation, knowledge and skills which in turn led to improved child behaviour, improved relationships and improved professional well-being. Direct pathways to reduced use of VAC by teachers were through improved child behaviour and teacher well-being. The main reasons for continued use of VAC were due to barriers teachers faced using positive discipline techniques, teachers' negative affect, and child behaviours that teachers perceived to be severe. We describe how we used the results from the mixed-method evaluation to inform revisions to the programme to further reduce teachers' use of VAC and to inform the processes of training, supervision and ongoing monitoring as the programme is scaled-up through government services.
