2. PROBLEM STATEMENT
“A STUDY TO ASSESS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF
PLANNED TEACHING PROGRAMME ON
KNOWLEDGE REGARDING ACUTE DIARRHEAL
DISEASE AMONG MOTHERS OF UNDER FIVE
CHILDREN RESIDING IN SELECTED RURAL
AREAS AT HINDAUN CITY.”

3. RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the study were:
 To assess the pre-test knowledge regarding acute diarrheal
disease among mothers of under five children.
 To assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on
knowledge regarding acute diarrheal disease among mothers of
under five children.
 To determine the association between the pre-test knowledge
score of mothers of under five children with their selected
socio-demographic variables.

4. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS
 H 1 – The mean post test knowledge score
regarding acute diarrheal disease among mothers
of under five children will be significantly higher
than the mean pre-test knowledge score after
administration of planned teaching programme
 H 2 – There will be significant association
between pre test knowledge scores of acute
diarrheal disease among mothers of under five
children with their selected socio - demographic
variables.

5. ASSUMPTION
The study assumes that :
 Mothers of under five children may have inadequate
knowledge regarding acute diarrheal disease
 Planned teaching programme will help to improve the
knowledge of Mothers of under five children regarding acute
diarrheal disease
 Mothers of under five children will give free and frank
responses to the questions.
 Planned teaching programme will be an effective tool in
improving the knowledge regarding acute diarrheal disease
among mothers of under five children

6. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

7. RESEARCH APPROACH
 The research approach refers to a general set of
orderly disciplined procedures used to assure
useful information’s. Research approach helps
the researcher to determine what data to be
collected and how to analyses them. It also
suggests possible conclusion to be drawn from
the data.
 The research approach adopted for this study
was evaluative experimental approach.
Evaluative approach helps to explain the
effectiveness of independent variable on the
dependent variable.

8. RESEARCH DESIGN
 The research design is the overall plan for
obtaining answers to the research questions
being studied and for handling some of the
difficulties encountered during the research
process. Research design is the backbone of the
research study. It determines how the study will
be organized and the data will be collected and
when intervention if any, are to be implemented.
 A pre experimental design with one group pre-
test and post-test was used to assess the
effectiveness of the planned teaching programme
for the present study.

10. VARIABLES
 Independent variable - In this study independent
variable refers to planned teaching programme
regarding acute diarrheal disease
 Dependent variable - Dependent variable is the
outcome variable of interest. In this study,
knowledge of mothers of under five children was
the dependent variable.
 Demographical variable - Age, education status,
occupation status, number of children , type of
family, monthly family income in rupees, and
source of information regarding cataract.

11. SETTINGS OF THE STUDY
Research can be undertaken in a variety of settings
which are specific places where information is
gathered. Some studies take place in a
naturalistic setting in the field, such as in
people’s home or place of work. This study was
undertaken in selected rural areas at Hindaun
city.

12. STUDY POPULATION
 The population for the study consisted of
mothers of under five children .The target
population included the mothers of under five
children residing at selected rural areas at
Hindaun City.

13. TARGET POPULATION

supported to be measuring in order to establish
reliability of the tool. It was administered to 6
nursing students and data was tabulated. The
reliability of tool was established by split half
method, the tool was found feasible and reliable. The
reliability of the tool was r= 0.85 rendering the tool
reliable. A pilot study was conducted to test the
reliability of the tool. Through the pilot study the
entire question were found to be clear.

38. CONCLUSION
 The main objective of the study was to assess the
effectiveness of Planned Teaching Programme on
knowledge regarding acute diarrheal disease
among mothers of under five children residing
in selected rural areas at Hindaun city. Teaching
was given through lecture which includes
introduction to characteristics of stool, diarrhea
its types, complications and its causes,
symptoms , diagnosis, treatment and prevention
of acute diarrheal disease.

39. RECOMMENDATIONS
 A similar study can be conducted on a large sample.
 A quasi experimental study can be conducted using
experimental group.
 Follow up study can be conducted to assess the effectiveness of
Planned teaching programme .
 The same study can be conducted in various nursing colleges,
different hospitals and in rural areas.
 A comparative study can be conducted to assess the
effectiveness of planned teaching programme on acute
diarrheal disease between rural and urban mothers of under
five children.
 A longitudinal study can be conducted to assess the
vulnerability of acute diarrheal disease.
