How well does the theory of planned behaviour predict alcohol consumption? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to quantify correlations between theory of planned behaviour (TPB) variables and (i) intentions to consume alcohol and (ii) alcohol consumption. Systematic literature searches identified 40 eligible studies that were meta-analysed. Three moderator analyses were conducted: pattern of consumption, gender of participants and age of participants. Across studies, intentions had the strongest relationship with attitudes (r+ = .62), followed by subjective norms (r+ = .47) and perceived behavioural control (PBC; r+ = .31). Self-efficacy (SE) had a stronger relationship with intentions (r+ = .48) compared with perceived control (PC; r+ = -.10). Intention had the strongest relationship with alcohol consumption (r+ = .54), followed by SE (r+ = .41). In contrast, PBC and PC had negative relationships with alcohol consumption (r+ = -.05 and -.13, respectively). All moderators affected TPB relationships. Patterns of consumption with clear definitions had stronger TPB relations, females reported stronger attitude-intention relations than males, and adults reported stronger attitude-intention and SE-intention relations than adolescents. Recommendations for future research include targeting attitudes and intentions in interventions to reduce alcohol consumption, using clear definitions of alcohol consumption in TPB items to improve prediction and assessing SE when investigating risk behaviours.

Project description:BackgroundDue to their chronicity, prolonged morbidity, and high mortality, chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) pose a huge burden of disease globally, primarily among low- and middle-income countries. Most of these diseases can be controlled by early diagnosis and treatment, correct practice of medications, regular follow-up, and avoidance of risk factors, which involves a change in health behaviour among patients. The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) has been proven to be effective and has been used increasingly as a behavioural framework for designing and evaluating behaviour change interventions, although most such studies were on affluent populations and from the global north. We aimed to collate evidence of TPB-based behavioural interventions in low health literacy settings for its effectiveness and feasibility by conducting a systematic review (SR).MethodsWe followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines in conducting and reporting this study. We selected interventional studies using at least two constructs of TPB for behaviour change in chronic disease patients and conducted in LMICs, used the PICO framework, and exported the retrieved studies through the Endnote software. We evaluated the studies using the Risk of Bias (RoB) 2 and Risk of Bias in Non-randomised Studies - of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tools.ResultsWe retrieved and reviewed the titles and abstracts 4281 titles and abstracts, identifying 186 articles for further detailed screening. Eleven studies met the criteria for a standardised independent full-text screening by two authors and four were selected for narrative synthesis. All studies were from urban settings, with established feasibility and fidelity; all interventions were effective in changing health behaviour and TPB constructs and provided structured education to participants in the intervention group (either face-to-face and through group education). Three studies had some concerns/moderate risk of bias and one had high risk of bias.ConclusionsAll studies demonstrated effectiveness, feasibility, and fidelity of TPB interventions in LMIC settings, although most were of moderate quality. Further studies should gather definitive evidence and prove their feasibility and utility in LMICs.RegistrationPROSPERO CRD42018104890.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:Dental caries is the most common chronic childhood disease that occurs in a continuum and can be prevented by children and their parents' adherence to recommended oral health behaviors. Theory-driven tools help practitioners to identify the causes for poor adherence and develop effective interventions. This study examined the Expanded Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) Model by adding the concept of Sense of Coherence (SOC) to predict parental adherence to preschooler's preventive dental visits. METHODS:Data regarding socio-economic demographics were collected from parents of children aged 2-6 years. Constructs of TPB including parental attitudes, subjective norms (SN), Perceived Behavioural Control (PBC), and intention to attend preventive dental visits for their preschoolers were collected by questionnaire, alongside parents' sense of coherence (SOC). Dental attendance was measured by asking if the child had a regular dental visit during the last year. Structural Equation Modeling Analysis (SEMA) was carried out to identify significant direct and indirect (mediated) pathways in the extended TPB model. RESULTS:Three hundred and seventy-eight mothers (mean age = 34.41 years, range 22-48) participated in the study. The mean age of children was 3.92 years, range: 2-6), and 75.9% had dental insurance. Results of the final model showed that predisposing factors (child's birthplace and mother's birthplace) significantly predicted enabling resources (family monthly income and child's dental insurance status); both predicted the TPB components (PBC, SN, and attitude). TPB components, in turn, predicted behavioural intention. However, contrary to expectation, intention did not significantly predict dental attendance in the past 12 months. Parent's SOC significantly predicted TPB components and dental attendance. Overall, 56% of the variance in dental attendance was explained by the expanded TPB model. CONCLUSIONS:The expanded TPB model explained a great deal of variance in preschooler's dental attendance. These findings suggest that the expanded model could be used as the framework for designing interventions or strategies to enhance dental attendance among preschoolers; in particular, such strategies should focus specifically on enhancing parental SOC including empowerment.

Project description:BackgroundGlobally, excessive alcohol consumption is a major public health problem and is associated with social, mental, physical and legal consequences. However, no systematic review and meta-analysis has been performed to report the consolidated magnitude of alcohol consumption in Ethiopia.MethodsPubMed, EMBASE, and SCOPUS were systematically searched to identify pertinent studies. Subgroup and sensitivity analysis was conducted and Cochran's Q- and the I2 test were used to assess heterogeneity. Publication bias was evaluated by using Egger's test and visual inspection of the symmetry in funnel plots.ResultsWe included 26 articles with a total of 42,811 participants. The pooled current and lifetime prevalence of alcohol consumption was 23.86% (95%CI; 17.53-31.60) and 44.16% (95%CI; 34.20-54.62), respectively. The pooled prevalence of hazardous alcohol consumption was 8.94% (95%CI; 3.40-21.50). The prevalence of hazardous alcohol consumption was remarkably higher in men (11.58%) than in women (1.21%). The prevalence of current and lifetime alcohol consumptions among university students were 22.08% & 38.88% respectively. The pooled data revealed that male sex was found to be a significant predictor of hazardous alcohol consumption (OR 10.38; 95%CI 3.86 to 27.88) as well as current (OR 2.45; 95%CI 1.78 to 3.38) and lifetime (OR 2.14; 95%CI 1.39 to 3.29) consumption. The magnitude of alcohol consumption among university students was apparently lower than the magnitude in other population of the country. The current study suggested a remarkable recent increment in the magnitude of hazardous alcohol consumption in Ethiopia.ConclusionThe current study revealed that the prevalence of alcohol consumption in Ethiopia is comparable with the global estimates of alcohol consumption from the World Health Organization (WHO). The prevalence of hazardous alcohol consumption was remarkably higher in men (11.58%) than in women (1.21%). Male sex was found to be a significant predictor of alcohol consumption. The present study also suggested considerable recent increment in the magnitude of hazardous alcohol consumption in Ethiopia.

Project description:BackgroundThe published data about alcohol consumption and uterine myoma are scanty and controversial: some studies found positive association whereas other studies showed no association.ObjectivesTo conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether alcohol is a risk factor for myoma.Search strategyA MEDLINE/EMBASE search was carried out, supplemented by manual searches of bibliographies of the selected studies.Selection criteriaArticles published as full-length papers in English. In the review we included all identified studies. Otherwise, the inclusion criteria for studies included in the meta-analysis were: a) case-control or cohort studies, reporting original data; b) studies reporting original data on the association between alcohol consumption and myoma; c) diagnosis of myoma was ultrasound or histological confirmed and/or clinically based.Data collection and analysisA total of 6 studies were identified for the review and 5 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The primary outcome was the incidence of uterine myoma in ever versus never alcohol drinkers and when data were available, we also analyzed categories of alcohol intake. We assessed the outcomes in the overall population and then we performed a subgroup analysis according to study design. Pooled estimates of the odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using random effects models.Main resultsThe summary OR (95%CI) of myoma forever versus never alcohol intake was 1.12 (0.94-1.34) with significant heterogeneity. The summary OR for current versus never drinking was 1.33 (1.01-1.76) with no heterogeneity.ConclusionsEver alcohol consumption is not associated with myoma risk. Based on the data of two studies, current alcohol drinkers had a slightly borderline increased risk of diagnosis of myoma. In consideration of the very limited number of studies and the suggestion of a potential increased risk among current drinkers, further studies are required.
