A community programme has excellent attendance, but household use of insecticide-treated nets does not increase. What does this finding suggest?
Correct answer: A. The programme reached people but did not achieve the intended behavior change
- A. The programme reached people but did not achieve the intended behavior change
- B. The programme was successful because attendance was high
- C. The teaching content was effective because people came to the sessions
- D. The number of educators was adequate for the programme
Explanation
Attendance is mainly a participation or process measure, whereas net use is a behavior outcome. High attendance alone does not prove that the programme produced its intended change. The educator should investigate barriers and revise the intervention.
