本研究的目的是检验一种假设，即已完成的行为改变阶段(ABP)的绝对数量和已完成的行为改变阶段(SBP)的顺序数量与砖瓦公司的两组利益相关者(雇主/规划者、工头/瓦工)使用的人体工学措施呈正相关。这些措施包括栈桥、砌砖脚手架、升杆工作平台和起重机，以减少对瓦工和瓦工助理的体力工作要求。对27家公司的利益相关者进行了结构化访谈。对使用人体工学措施的行为变化阶段的顺序回归显示，由于雇主/规划者增加使用四种人体工学措施中的三种(即栈桥、砌砖脚手架、升桅杆工作平台)，以及工头/瓦工增加使用一种人体工学措施(即栈桥)，ABP和SBP均显著增加。总而言之，已完成的行为改变阶段(ABP和SBP)与使用人体工程学措施之间的积极和显著关联对于利益相关者群体和人体工程学措施之间是不同的。这些数据表明，通过较高的ABP比较高的SBP更有可能增加人体工程学措施的使用。建议开展活动--主要由雇主/规划者进行--以促进尽可能多的行为改变阶段，以促进工作场所实际使用人体工程学措施。
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that the absolute number of completed behavioural change phases (ABP) and the sequentially ordered number of completed behavioural change phases (SBP) are positively associated with the use of ergonomic measures by two groups of stakeholders in bricklaying companies (employers/planners, foremen/bricklayers). The measures, consisting of trestles, bricklaying scaffolds, mast-climbing work platforms and cranes, reduce the physical work demands made upon bricklayers and bricklayers' assistants. Structured interviews were conducted with stakeholders of 27 companies. Ordinal regression of behavioural change phases on the use of ergonomic measures showed a significant increase in both ABP and SBP in relation to increased use of three of the four ergonomic measures (i.e. trestles, bricklaying scaffolds, mast-climbing work platforms) by employers/planners and increased use of one ergonomic measure (i.e. trestles) by foremen/bricklayers. In conclusion, the positive and significant associations between the completed behavioural change phases (ABP and SBP) and use of ergonomic measures differ for the stakeholder groups and between the ergonomic measures. The data suggest that there is a higher chance of increasing the use of ergonomic measures by means of a higher ABP than a higher SBP. It is recommended for activities to be carried out—primarily by employers/planners—to facilitate as many behavioural change phases as possible in order to stimulate actual use of ergonomic measures at worksites.
