- چکیده انگلیسی: Introduction: E-learning can result in the promotion of efficiency in the educational processes. However, the development of E-Learning may fail to succeed if the users’ attitudes are not considered. The users’ attitudes are very effective in the adoption and use of E-learning. The purpose of this study was to determine the attitudes of faculty members of Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences on E-Learning.Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted, using a stratified proportional random sampling. The participants consisted of the faculties members of Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences. The instrument for data collection was a researcher made questionnaire based on similar studies in two parts: part one with eleven background items, and part two with twelve attitude items. The validity of the questionnaire was approved, using experts’ comments and the reliability was found to be 0.73, using Cronbach's Alpha test. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS-21, using independent T-tests and ANOVA with α=0.05.Results: Maximum scores were 47.23 percent of the total score. Three items, “saving the students’ time”, “solving many problems of teaching” and “saving the teachers’ time” achieved the highest mean score, respectively. Only the faculty members with experience in E-learning education had better attitudes (p=0.003).Conclusion: The attitude of faculty members of Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences toward e-learning was not appropriate. Holding workshops in the field of E-learning by EDC can help to improve the condition.

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: E-Learning could increase efficiency teaching process and higher quality of education. The aim of this study was to determine the factors related to eLearning intention based on the Adoption Technology Model (ATM).
Methods: This cross-sectional study, conducted among 150 faculty members of Kermanshah University of medical science. Participants were randomly selected to participate voluntarily in the study and filled out a self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS-21 using appropriate statistical tests including t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation and linear regression at 95% significant level.
Results: The ATM predictor variables, accounted for 46% of the variation in the outcome measure of the eLearning intention. Furthermore, eLearning intention have a correlation with attitude (r=0.464), perceived ease of use (r=0.353) and external variables (r=0.308).
Conclusions: Based on our findings, it seems that in designing intervention for encouraging faculty members to E- Learning teaching should be more attention to attitude, perceived ease of use, and external variables.- انتشار مقاله: 19-04-1393

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Mammography screening uptake is the most effective method in breast cancer screening. The aim
of this study was to determine the determinants related to mammography screening uptake among Iranian women
based on the theory of planned behavior. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among
408 women who referred to health centers in Kermanshah city, the western of Iran, during 2016. Participants filled
out a self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 21 using Pearson correlation, linear and
logistic regression statistical tests at 95% significant level. Results: The mean age of participants was 39.61 years
[SD: 8.28], ranged from 30 to 60 years. Almost 13% of the participants had already mammography screening uptake
at least once. Perceived behavioral control (OR=1.229) and behavioral intention (OR=1.283) were the more influential
predictors on mammography screening uptake. Conclusions: Based on result, it seems increase perceived behavior
control toward mammography screening uptake may be usefulness in promotion of mammography screening uptake
among Iranian women.- انتشار مقاله: 03-10-1396

- چکیده انگلیسی: Screening may be effective for reducing deaths due to prostate cancer. The aim of this study was determine the prevalence
and determinants influencing prostate cancer early detection behaviors based on the theory planned behavior (TPB).
In this cross-sectional study, conducted in the west of Iran, a total of 250 men aged 50 to 70 years old were randomly
selected to participate. Of these, 200 (80%) signed the consent form and voluntarily agreed to take part. A structured
questionnaire based on TPB constructs was applied for collecting data by interview. Analyses were conducted with
SPSS version 16 using bivariate correlations, and logistic and linear regression. Some 26.5% of the participants
demonstrated prostate cancer early detection behavior. Age higher than 60 (OR: 5.969), academic education (OR: 2.904),
number of family members more than four (OR: 3.144), and knowledge about prostate cancer (OR: 3.693) were the
most influential predictive factors for early detection behavior. Furthermore, among the TPB constructs, attitude
(OR=1.090) and subjective norms (OR=1.280) were the most influential predictors. Attitude, subjective norms, and
perceived behavioral control accounted for 43% of the variation in the outcome measure of the intention to screen
for prostate cancer (adjusted R squared= 0.43, F= 49.270 and P < 0.001). Designing and implementation programs to
increase positive attitudes and encourage subjective norms towards prostate cancer screening behavior may be useful
for promotion of early detection.- انتشار مقاله: 11-09-1396
