ABSTRACT
Background: dust phenomenon, especially in the summer, is a serious problem in Khuzestan province and has adverse effects on
health, environment and economic. Behavior change is the base for health associated risks prevention and one of the models for
behavior change in individual level is Health Belief Model. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of educational
package on promotion of protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon in Ahvaz teachers by SPSS software.
Methods: This was an experimental study in which 200 teachers randomly were divided into two groups, case and control groups
[n=100, in each group]
pha test. Before the educational intervention, questionnaire was
completed by two groups and educational requirements of subjects were detected and an educational package was designed and
implemented for 4 week. The control group received no intervention. After a month the effect of educational package on study
variables was evaluated. Data were analyzed with SPSS statistical software version 17, by descriptive and analytical tests.
Result: Mean age of case and control groups were 39.75±6.95 and 39.78±7.02 years, respectively. There was no significant
association between marriage and behavior, but there was a significant association between employment number of years and
behavior [p=0.03], education and behavior [p=0.03]. Based on the findings of this study there was a significant association
between the knowledge, health belief model components and behavior of the study subjects, before and after the intervention [p<
0.001].
Conclusion: designing and implementation of an educational package based on health belief model can promote the knowledge
and protective behaviors in exposure to dust particles effectively.
Keywords: education, educational package, protective behaviors, dust phenomenon
1. INTRODUCTION
Scientific researches in the past two decades have shown
that particles are one of the specific pollutants [1]. Results
of a study by the World Health Organization in Berlin,
Copenhagen and Rome showed that particles smaller than
2.5 microns in diameter, seriously affect the health and
increase death due to respiratory disease, cardiovascular
disease and lung cancer [2]. According to the World Health
Organization report over 2 million people developing
premature death in every year [3]. Most important effects
of dust are allergy of eyes, nose and throat, respiratory tract
infections, headache, nausea, allergic reactions, chronic
respiratory disease, lung cancer, heart disease and damage
to other organs of the body. Dust in the long-term can
change the mood. Aggression and depression are also other
effects of dust [4]. Annette peters showed an association
between heart disease and air particles based on
epidemiological evidences. This study showed that daily
changes in air particles concentration are closely associated
with cardiovascular related deaths, hospital admit,
cardiovascular disease symptom exacerbation [5]. Chinese
researchers in 2007 investigated the impact of particles
smaller than 2.5 microns in samples that collected from
Asian dust on macrophage and lung cells DNA of mice.

The results showed that extract of these particles leaded to
DNA damage in these cells [6]. In a study on students of
850 schools in United Arab Emirates the prevalence of
asthma and allergy were 13.6% and 73%, respectively and
there was a significant association between dust and
mentioned diseases [7]. Some recent epidemiological
studies suggested that long-term transport of dust particles
is associated with increased daily mortality in Seoul [8] and
Taipei and Taiwan [9] and respiratory and cardiovascular
diseases [8]. although , the dust particles contribute to
drinking water contamination and therefore gastrointestinal
disease [10].
Dust occurrence increases some heavy metals such as lead
concentrations up to 3-fold [11]. Also the concentration of
toxic metals, mercury and arsenic, greatly increased [12].
Air -borne microorganisms concentration in dusty days
increase and most of these microorganisms are pathogen
and cause disease.
Iran is located in an area with a dry climate and over 30%
of the country is arid and semi-arid area [14]. In the past
few years the country has been exposed to the dust
phenomenon. This country because of neighboring with the
wide expanse of desert is adversely affected by this
phenomenon. One of the areas that has been affected by
this phenomenon is Khuzestan province that is located in
southwestern of Iran [15]. This phenomenon has been
associated with some problems and rise in adverse effects
on health, environment and economic [15]. In the dusty
days, admit of patients with pulmonary disease to health
centers in Ahvaz has showed 70 percent increase [1]; One
way for reducing the incidence of diseases caused by dust
is educational interventions. Health education experts use
the appropriate models in order to health education
interventions design, one of this models is Health Belief
Model. The aim of this study was design and
implementation of educational package based on health
belief model and evaluation of its effects on protective
behaviors in teachers by SPSS software. In this study
educational package was an educational program that has
been designed based on educational needs of subjects in
order to prepare the subjects for implementation of
protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon.
2. METHODS
This was an experimental and analytical study [before and
after] that has been conducted in Ahvaz. Two hundred
teachers randomly were divided into two groups, case and
control groups [n=100, in each group]. The inclusion
criteria included: employment for at least three years, lack
of respiratory disease and cardiovascular disease and
satisfaction for participation in the study. Exclusion criteria
included: unsatisfaction for participation in the study and
nonparticipation in the educational sessions. Data were
collected by a questionnaire that was designed according to
the health belief model constructs. The questionnaire
contained 78 questions in four parts. This parts included
questions regarding to individual characteristics [19
questions], knowledge [14 questions, score range=14-32],
health belief model constructs [34 questions] and protective
behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon [11 questions,
score range=11-55], respectively. In part 3, questions
included: perceived susceptibility, perceived severity and
perceived benefits each with 7 questions [score range = 7-
35], perceived barriers with 6 questions [score range = 6-
36], cue to action with 2 questions [score range = 2-10] and
self-efficacy with 4 questions [score range = 4-20].
The validity of questionnaire was evaluated by means of
face validity and content validity methods. Face validity
was evaluated by means of relevance, simplicity and clarity
of questions. Questionnaire was evaluated by 10 experts
[included 5 experts in health education, 5 experts in
environmental health, 1 epidemiologist and 2 experts in
Biostatistics]
Q
that were same with study population in demographic
characteristics.
detected: Knowledge: 0.76, perceived susceptibility: 0.73,
perceived severity: 0.88, perceived benefits: 0.72,
perceived barriers: 0.77, cue to action: 0.71, perceived Self-
efficacy: 0.71 and protective behaviors: 0.71.
The questionnaire was used before and after the educational
package implementation to determine the perceived
knowledge, sensitivity, severity, benefits, barriers and self-
efficacy, and behavior of subjects. Data were collected by a
questionnaire in interview method before intervention in
case and control group. Then data were analyzed and the
educational needs of subjects were detected and
educational package was designed. Educational package
included an educational booklet, pamphlet and CD that
represented essential information in relation to dust
particles, disease prevention and protective behaviors. Then
researcher represent educational package to the case group
in four sessions [each sessions was 90 minutes].
Educational methods were the lecture, questioning and
responding and showing the video clip. Immediately and
two months after the educational intervention, subjects data
were collected by questionnaire and were analyzed. The
control group received no intervention. Data were analyzed
with SPSS statistical software version 17, by frequency
distribution, correlation coefficient, t-Student, Chi-square,
Mann-Whitney and Repeated measures tests.
3. RESULTS
Two hundred teachers were participated in this study. Mean
age of case and control groups were 39.75±6.95 and
39.78±7.02 years; respectively. Age 40-49 years had the
most frequency in the case group [46%] and the control
group [45%]. In the two groups more present of subjects
were married [82% in the case group and 81% in the
control group]. In the two groups most of subjects had
Bachelor's degree. More present of subjects had two
children [47% in the case group and 46.3% in the control
group] and less present of subjects had four children. Most

Number of children and previous education about dust
phenomenon were not significantly difference between
cases and controls.
There was no significant association between marriage and
behavior but there was a significant association between
employment number of years and behavior (p=0.03) and
also between education and behavior (p=0.03). In the two
groups the most used sources for information about
protective behaviors in the exposure to dust particles were
radio and television and there was no significant difference
between two groups table 1.

phenomenon in teachers, Ahvaz
The mean of knowledge, perceived susceptibility,
perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers,
perceived self-efficacy, cue to action and behavior score
were not significantly different between cases and controls
before intervention. Whereas, immediately and two months
after the educational intervention there was a significant
difference between cases and controls in mentioned
variables [p=0.001] [table 2, 3].
, 16% ’
home in dusty days but after the intervention 57% of cases
’
intervention 70% of cases sometimes educated their
students in relation to air pollution but after the intervention
75% of cases often educated their students. Before the
intervention, only 2% of cases have been eaten more
amount of fruit and vegetable in dusty days but after the
intervention the rate increased to 41%. Before the
intervention, only 3% of cases have been eaten more
amount of milk in dusty days.
4. DISCUSSION
One of the most important air pollutants are dust particles
and high concentrations of particles in dust storms causing
sinusitis, bronchitis, asthma, allergy and damage to the
defensive function of macrophages, thereby leading to an
increase in hospital infections [19]. The purpose of the
present study was implementation of protective behaviors
when dust phenomenon occurs. To the best of our
knowledge the effect of this educational method on
protective behaviors in exposure to dust particles has not
been investigated in previous studies.
Before the intervention, protective behaviors of teachers in
exposure to dust phenomenon were in intermediate level.
But significant difference between behavior score of cases
and controls after intervention showed the positive effect of
educational package on promotion of protective behaviors
in case group. In Araban et al. study after the intervention
behavior score was significantly different between case and
control groups [20]. The results of Giles et al. meeting in
Canada on strategies for reducing the adverse effects of air
pollution on health, entitled "The decision to effective
intervention", showed that personal behavior modification
and pollutants exposure reduction are appropriate
approaches for reducing the adverse effects of air pollution
[21]. Sexton study showed that on dusty days persons
changed their behavior by reducing time spent outdoors by
18% or 21 minutes [22].
I g ’
sources of information about protective behaviors in the
exposure to dust particles were radio, television and family.
Significant difference between knowledge score of two
groups after the educational intervention was due to the
educational sessions about protective behaviors in exposure
to dust phenomenon and this educational sessions promoted
the knowledge of case group about protective behaviors.
These results are in line with the use of Health Belief
Model in researches about diabetes control and self-care
and promotion of knowledge after the educational
intervention [23, 24]. Boonkuson et al. showed that
protective behaviors in exposure to health problems
depends on the knowledge and attitude [25]. Pazira et al.
reported that a part of Tehran population knowledge about
air pollution and protective behaviors was in low level [26].
In the health belief model constructs the perceived
susceptibility score before intervention was the same in
both groups. After intervention perceived susceptibility
score was significantly different between case and control
groups [p=0.001]. This finding is consistent with increased
perceived susceptibility in researches about the
osteoporosis prevention [27] and diet care [24].
Also, perceived severity score before intervention in two
groups sho ’
of illnesses caused by dust particles was over the average,
probably due to the illness of friends or coworkers or
damages caused by dust particles. The dramatic increase in
the perceived severity score of the case group seems to be

and providing educational package included showing video
clip, booklet and pamphlet, mention to importance of
protective behaviors on the dusty days, high cost of
pulmonary, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal tract
diseases. In the other studies perceived severity has been
increased similarly [23, 27]. Also in the Praphant et al.
study perceived severity was in moderate level [60.6%]
[28].

T ’
perceived benefits of protective behaviors in dusty days in
both groups were in good condition but after the
intervention perceived benefits score has increased in the
case group. Because the protective behaviors in the
exposure to dust phenomenon are not time consuming and
x ’
visit, can be useful in promotion of perceived benefits.
Araban et al. showed that perceived benefits increased by
improvement in stage of change [20]. Qaderi et al. reported
that perceived benefits score increased in the case group
after the intervention [29].
Perceived barriers of protective behaviors in both case and
control groups were moderate before intervention; but there
were significant differences between the perceived barriers
of the two groups after the intervention due to the effect of
the education. Most of the teachers' perceived barriers for
protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon
included the unavailability of respiratory mask, discomfort
and shortness of breath and nose sweating because of the
mask, financial difficulties in buying more fruit and
vegetable in a dusty days, financial difficulties due to stay
at home and problems related to communication with
coworkers. in Araban et al. study two barriers , delay in
doing things and need to enter the crowded areas of city,
After education in the intervention group changed, while
these barriers in the control group was not significant [20].
Koch showed that elimination of perceived barriers
increased walking in diabetic patients [30].
Other Health Belief Model construct was perceived self-
efficacy. Self-efficacy is the beliefs of person about their
abilities to control events that affects their life [31].
T ’ -efficacy score was in low level in case and
g T ’ -
efficacy score was significantly different between cases and
controls after intervention that this was due to the effect of
education on self-efficacy and promotion of protective
behaviors in the case group. Araban et al. reported that self-
efficacy was significantly higher in case group after the
intervention [20].
Education based on Health Belief Model promoted the
teachers protective behaviors in exposure to dust
phenomenon by promoting the perceived susceptibility,
severity, benefits and barriers using a variety of educational
methods and educational package. On the other hand,
Stimuli or cues to action encouraged teachers to the
protective behaviors. Also, present study showed that the
media played an important role in attracting teachers to
protective behaviors. Drakshyani et al. in their study on
schools and colleges teachers in India showed the Necessity
of public health education programs through the mass
media [32]. Khorsandi et al. reported that radio and
television programs are the most important cues to action in
reducing the risk of osteoporosis [33] .The present study
designed an educational package in order to promote the
teachers behaviors but similar research should be
conducted in other parts of the country.

5. CONCLUSION
The findings of this study showed that the designed
educational package was effective in promoting the
knowledge and protective behaviors in teachers. Therefore,
health behavior education in other people, especially in
high-risk groups is important to maintenance of protective
behaviors in exposure to the dust phenomenon.

ABSTRACT Background: dust phenomenon, especially in the summer, is a serious problem in Khuzestan province and has adverse effects on health, environment and economic. Behavior change is the base for health associated risks prevention and one of the models for behavior change in individual level is Health Belief Model. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of educational package on promotion of protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon in Ahvaz teachers by SPSS software. Methods: This was an experimental study in which 200 teachers randomly were divided into two groups, case and control groups [n=100, in each group] pha test. Before the educational intervention, questionnaire was completed by two groups and educational requirements of subjects were detected and an educational package was designed and implemented for 4 week. The control group received no intervention. After a month the effect of educational package on study variables was evaluated. Data were analyzed with SPSS statistical software version 17, by descriptive and analytical tests. Result: Mean age of case and control groups were 39.75±6.95 and 39.78±7.02 years, respectively. There was no significant association between marriage and behavior, but there was a significant association between employment number of years and behavior [p=0.03], education and behavior [p=0.03]. Based on the findings of this study there was a significant association between the knowledge, health belief model components and behavior of the study subjects, before and after the intervention [p< 0.001]. Conclusion: designing and implementation of an educational package based on health belief model can promote the knowledge and protective behaviors in exposure to dust particles effectively. Keywords: education, educational package, protective behaviors, dust phenomenon 1. INTRODUCTION Scientific researches in the past two decades have shown that particles are one of the specific pollutants [1]. Results of a study by the World Health Organization in Berlin, Copenhagen and Rome showed that particles smaller than 2.5 microns in diameter, seriously affect the health and increase death due to respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease and lung cancer [2]. According to the World Health Organization report over 2 million people developing premature death in every year [3]. Most important effects of dust are allergy of eyes, nose and throat, respiratory tract infections, headache, nausea, allergic reactions, chronic respiratory disease, lung cancer, heart disease and damage to other organs of the body. Dust in the long-term can change the mood. Aggression and depression are also other effects of dust [4]. Annette peters showed an association between heart disease and air particles based on epidemiological evidences. This study showed that daily changes in air particles concentration are closely associated with cardiovascular related deaths, hospital admit, cardiovascular disease symptom exacerbation [5]. Chinese researchers in 2007 investigated the impact of particles smaller than 2.5 microns in samples that collected from Asian dust on macrophage and lung cells DNA of mice.
  • 2. International Journal of Computer Applications Technology and Research Volume 3– Issue 12, 762 - 768, 2014, ISSN:- 2319–8656 www.ijcat.com 763 The results showed that extract of these particles leaded to DNA damage in these cells [6]. In a study on students of 850 schools in United Arab Emirates the prevalence of asthma and allergy were 13.6% and 73%, respectively and there was a significant association between dust and mentioned diseases [7]. Some recent epidemiological studies suggested that long-term transport of dust particles is associated with increased daily mortality in Seoul [8] and Taipei and Taiwan [9] and respiratory and cardiovascular diseases [8]. although , the dust particles contribute to drinking water contamination and therefore gastrointestinal disease [10]. Dust occurrence increases some heavy metals such as lead concentrations up to 3-fold [11]. Also the concentration of toxic metals, mercury and arsenic, greatly increased [12]. Air -borne microorganisms concentration in dusty days increase and most of these microorganisms are pathogen and cause disease. Iran is located in an area with a dry climate and over 30% of the country is arid and semi-arid area [14]. In the past few years the country has been exposed to the dust phenomenon. This country because of neighboring with the wide expanse of desert is adversely affected by this phenomenon. One of the areas that has been affected by this phenomenon is Khuzestan province that is located in southwestern of Iran [15]. This phenomenon has been associated with some problems and rise in adverse effects on health, environment and economic [15]. In the dusty days, admit of patients with pulmonary disease to health centers in Ahvaz has showed 70 percent increase [1]; One way for reducing the incidence of diseases caused by dust is educational interventions. Health education experts use the appropriate models in order to health education interventions design, one of this models is Health Belief Model. The aim of this study was design and implementation of educational package based on health belief model and evaluation of its effects on protective behaviors in teachers by SPSS software. In this study educational package was an educational program that has been designed based on educational needs of subjects in order to prepare the subjects for implementation of protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon. 2. METHODS This was an experimental and analytical study [before and after] that has been conducted in Ahvaz. Two hundred teachers randomly were divided into two groups, case and control groups [n=100, in each group]. The inclusion criteria included: employment for at least three years, lack of respiratory disease and cardiovascular disease and satisfaction for participation in the study. Exclusion criteria included: unsatisfaction for participation in the study and nonparticipation in the educational sessions. Data were collected by a questionnaire that was designed according to the health belief model constructs. The questionnaire contained 78 questions in four parts. This parts included questions regarding to individual characteristics [19 questions], knowledge [14 questions, score range=14-32], health belief model constructs [34 questions] and protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon [11 questions, score range=11-55], respectively. In part 3, questions included: perceived susceptibility, perceived severity and perceived benefits each with 7 questions [score range = 7- 35], perceived barriers with 6 questions [score range = 6- 36], cue to action with 2 questions [score range = 2-10] and self-efficacy with 4 questions [score range = 4-20]. The validity of questionnaire was evaluated by means of face validity and content validity methods. Face validity was evaluated by means of relevance, simplicity and clarity of questions. Questionnaire was evaluated by 10 experts [included 5 experts in health education, 5 experts in environmental health, 1 epidemiologist and 2 experts in Biostatistics] Q that were same with study population in demographic characteristics. detected: Knowledge: 0.76, perceived susceptibility: 0.73, perceived severity: 0.88, perceived benefits: 0.72, perceived barriers: 0.77, cue to action: 0.71, perceived Self- efficacy: 0.71 and protective behaviors: 0.71. The questionnaire was used before and after the educational package implementation to determine the perceived knowledge, sensitivity, severity, benefits, barriers and self- efficacy, and behavior of subjects. Data were collected by a questionnaire in interview method before intervention in case and control group. Then data were analyzed and the educational needs of subjects were detected and educational package was designed. Educational package included an educational booklet, pamphlet and CD that represented essential information in relation to dust particles, disease prevention and protective behaviors. Then researcher represent educational package to the case group in four sessions [each sessions was 90 minutes]. Educational methods were the lecture, questioning and responding and showing the video clip. Immediately and two months after the educational intervention, subjects data were collected by questionnaire and were analyzed. The control group received no intervention. Data were analyzed with SPSS statistical software version 17, by frequency distribution, correlation coefficient, t-Student, Chi-square, Mann-Whitney and Repeated measures tests. 3. RESULTS Two hundred teachers were participated in this study. Mean age of case and control groups were 39.75±6.95 and 39.78±7.02 years; respectively. Age 40-49 years had the most frequency in the case group [46%] and the control group [45%]. In the two groups more present of subjects were married [82% in the case group and 81% in the control group]. In the two groups most of subjects had Bachelor's degree. More present of subjects had two children [47% in the case group and 46.3% in the control group] and less present of subjects had four children. Most j ’ and protective behaviors.

There was no significant association between marriage and behavior but there was a significant association between employment number of years and behavior (p=0.03) and also between education and behavior (p=0.03). In the two groups the most used sources for information about protective behaviors in the exposure to dust particles were radio and television and there was no significant difference between two groups table 1. Table 1. Information sources regarding the dust phenomenon in teachers, Ahvaz The mean of knowledge, perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, perceived self-efficacy, cue to action and behavior score were not significantly different between cases and controls before intervention. Whereas, immediately and two months after the educational intervention there was a significant difference between cases and controls in mentioned variables [p=0.001] [table 2, 3]. , 16% ’ home in dusty days but after the intervention 57% of cases ’ intervention 70% of cases sometimes educated their students in relation to air pollution but after the intervention 75% of cases often educated their students. Before the intervention, only 2% of cases have been eaten more amount of fruit and vegetable in dusty days but after the intervention the rate increased to 41%. Before the intervention, only 3% of cases have been eaten more amount of milk in dusty days. 4. DISCUSSION One of the most important air pollutants are dust particles and high concentrations of particles in dust storms causing sinusitis, bronchitis, asthma, allergy and damage to the defensive function of macrophages, thereby leading to an increase in hospital infections [19]. The purpose of the present study was implementation of protective behaviors when dust phenomenon occurs. To the best of our knowledge the effect of this educational method on protective behaviors in exposure to dust particles has not been investigated in previous studies. Before the intervention, protective behaviors of teachers in exposure to dust phenomenon were in intermediate level. But significant difference between behavior score of cases and controls after intervention showed the positive effect of educational package on promotion of protective behaviors in case group. In Araban et al. study after the intervention behavior score was significantly different between case and control groups [20]. The results of Giles et al. meeting in Canada on strategies for reducing the adverse effects of air pollution on health, entitled "The decision to effective intervention", showed that personal behavior modification and pollutants exposure reduction are appropriate approaches for reducing the adverse effects of air pollution [21]. Sexton study showed that on dusty days persons changed their behavior by reducing time spent outdoors by 18% or 21 minutes [22]. I g ’ sources of information about protective behaviors in the exposure to dust particles were radio, television and family. Significant difference between knowledge score of two groups after the educational intervention was due to the educational sessions about protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon and this educational sessions promoted the knowledge of case group about protective behaviors. These results are in line with the use of Health Belief Model in researches about diabetes control and self-care and promotion of knowledge after the educational intervention [23, 24]. Boonkuson et al. showed that protective behaviors in exposure to health problems depends on the knowledge and attitude [25]. Pazira et al. reported that a part of Tehran population knowledge about air pollution and protective behaviors was in low level [26]. In the health belief model constructs the perceived susceptibility score before intervention was the same in both groups. After intervention perceived susceptibility score was significantly different between case and control groups [p=0.001]. This finding is consistent with increased perceived susceptibility in researches about the osteoporosis prevention [27] and diet care [24]. Also, perceived severity score before intervention in two groups sho ’ of illnesses caused by dust particles was over the average, probably due to the illness of friends or coworkers or damages caused by dust particles. The dramatic increase in the perceived severity score of the case group seems to be ’ p-value controlscasesGroups Information source noyesnoyes 0.552595793Radio & television 0.66760405743Newspaper & magazine 142584258family 0.88642584357coworkers 0.77643574555friends 0.11569316832Book & booklet 0.07765356436 Physician and staff of health center 0.77755455347internet

In the other studies perceived severity has been increased similarly [23, 27]. Also in the Praphant et al. study perceived severity was in moderate level [60.6%] [28]. Table 2.

Because the protective behaviors in the exposure to dust phenomenon are not time consuming and x ’ visit, can be useful in promotion of perceived benefits. Araban et al. showed that perceived benefits increased by improvement in stage of change [20]. Qaderi et al. reported that perceived benefits score increased in the case group after the intervention [29]. Perceived barriers of protective behaviors in both case and control groups were moderate before intervention; but there were significant differences between the perceived barriers of the two groups after the intervention due to the effect of the education. Most of the teachers' perceived barriers for protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon included the unavailability of respiratory mask, discomfort and shortness of breath and nose sweating because of the mask, financial difficulties in buying more fruit and vegetable in a dusty days, financial difficulties due to stay at home and problems related to communication with coworkers. in Araban et al. study two barriers , delay in doing things and need to enter the crowded areas of city, After education in the intervention group changed, while these barriers in the control group was not significant [20]. Koch showed that elimination of perceived barriers increased walking in diabetic patients [30]. Other Health Belief Model construct was perceived self- efficacy. Self-efficacy is the beliefs of person about their abilities to control events that affects their life [31]. T ’ -efficacy score was in low level in case and g T ’ - efficacy score was significantly different between cases and controls after intervention that this was due to the effect of education on self-efficacy and promotion of protective behaviors in the case group. Araban et al. reported that self- efficacy was significantly higher in case group after the intervention [20]. Education based on Health Belief Model promoted the teachers protective behaviors in exposure to dust phenomenon by promoting the perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits and barriers using a variety of educational methods and educational package. On the other hand, Stimuli or cues to action encouraged teachers to the protective behaviors. Also, present study showed that the media played an important role in attracting teachers to protective behaviors.
