目的。评估针对健康促进(HP)从业者的多媒体物质滥用预防(SAP)培训计划，该计划旨在为行为建模和技能建设提供机会，并激励和建立将SAP整合到HP服务中的能力的信心。采用纯后测设计，192名从业者被随机分配接受基于网络的(试验组)或基于印刷品的(控制组)培训。对实施有效SAP规划的能力、对培训材料的反应、关于药物滥用和如何实施SAP的知识进行了评估。试验组还对网络培训的具体方面进行了评分。实验组给出了较高的评价分，在柔韧性项目上得分显著高于对照组，在15个反应项目中有12个项目得分显著高于对照组。基于网络的培训比基于印刷的培训更吸引人、更容易理解、对用户更友好、更有用、更全面和更有激励作用：它被认为在帮助整合药物滥用预防方面更有效；它将作为一种持续的资源。
Purpose. To evaluate a multimedia substance abuse prevention (SAP) training program for health promotion (HP) practitioners designed to provide opportunities for behavioral modeling and skills building and to motivate and build confidence in ability to integrate SAP into HP offerings.Methods. Using a posttest only design, 192 practitioners were randomly assigned to receive web-based (experimental group) or print-based (control group) training. Feelings about ability to conduct effective SAP programming, reactions to training materials, and knowledge about substance abuse and how to implement SAP were assessed. The experimental group also rated specific aspects of the web training.Results. The experimental group gave high evaluation ratings, scored significantly higher on se fleffzcacy items, and gave significantly higher ratings on 12 of 15 reaction items.Conclusion. Web-based training was more engaging, understandable, user friendly, useful, comprehensive, and motivating than print-based training: it is believed to be more effective in helping to integrate substance abuse prevention; and it will serve as a continuous resource.
