这项试点研究的目的是（1）确定是否有骨质疏松症的家族史的影响知识，健康信念，以及对骨质疏松症的自我效能在42-52岁的围绝经期妇女和（2）描述的影响，骨质疏松症的具体教育干预的知识，健康信念，和自我效能的这一人群。参与者在教育计划之前和之后两个月完成了三项调查，测量与骨质疏松症相关的知识，健康信念和自我效能。在基线时，有和无骨质疏松症家族史的妇女对骨质疏松症的认识没有差异，尽管有家族史的妇女比无家族史的妇女更容易患骨质疏松症。结果表明，两组的骨质疏松症的知识增加（P <0.001）。无骨质疏松症家族史的妇女钙的益处增加（P <0.001），有骨质疏松症家族史的妇女运动的益处增加（P = 0.007）。两组女性之间的自我效能感没有显著的统计结果。研究结果表明，一个具体的糖尿病教育计划提高围绝经期妇女的知识和一些健康信念。
The aims of this pilot study were to (1) determine if having a family history of osteoporosis impacts knowledge, health beliefs, and self-efficacy regarding osteoporosis among perimenopausal women aged 42–52 and to (2) describe the impact of an osteoporosis-specific educational intervention had on the knowledge, health beliefs, and self-efficacy of this population. Participants completed three surveys measuring knowledge, health beliefs, and self-efficacy related to osteoporosis before and two months after the educational program. At baseline, no differences were noted in knowledge of osteoporosis among women with and without a family history of osteoporosis, although women with a family history perceived a greater susceptibility for developing osteoporosis than women without the family history. Findings indicate that both groups increased in knowledge of osteoporosis (P < .001). Benefits of calcium increased in the women without a family history of osteoporosis (P < .001) and benefits of exercise increase in women with a family history of osteoporosis (P = .007). There were no significant statistical findings regarding self-efficacy between the two groups of women. Findings indicate that an osteoporosis-specific educational program improves perimenopausal women's knowledge and some health beliefs.
