我们报告的信息手册，旨在解释后续的目的，以儿童癌症幸存者的评价。评价工作借鉴了变革模式的拟订可能性和阶段方面的理论概念。我们预测，采用中央处理而不是外围处理的幸存者将表现出更好的理解，并更愿意改变健康行为。48名幸存者在诊所里看到了小册子的一页，然后完成了关于对诊所的态度，改变行为的准备以及信息的重要性和可怕性的问卷调查。然后，他们得到了整个小册子，并要求在家里完成第二份问卷。阅读小册子后，幸存者对诊所的态度更加积极。使用中央处理器的幸存者认为信息更重要，并且比外围处理器更愿意改变健康行为。我们建议，在向儿童提供健康信息时，应定期包括鼓励中央处理的方法。(C)2004爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司保留所有权利。
We report the evaluation of an information booklet aimed to explain the purpose of follow-up to survivors of childhood cancer. Evaluations drew on theoretical concepts in the elaboration likelihood and stages of change models. We predicted that survivors who adopt central rather than peripheral processing would show greater understanding and increased readiness to change health behaviour. Forty-eight survivors were shown an example page of the booklet in the clinic and then completed questionnaires about attitude to clinic, readiness to change behaviour, and the importance and scariness of the information. They were then given the whole booklet and asked to complete a second questionnaire at home. After reading the booklet, survivors reported a more positive attitude to clinic. Survivors using central processing rated information as more important and were more ready to change health behaviour than peripheral processors. We recommend that methods to encourage central processing should be routinely included when providing children with health information. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
