Overview

Brief Summary

Aim:

To evaluate the effectiveness of a nurse-led brief intervention on dependence and readiness to change behavior among individuals using smokeless tobacco attending the dental OPD at AIIMS, Jodhpur.

Objectives:

  1. To assess and compare the baseline level of dependence and readiness to change behavior among experimental and control group individuals using smokeless tobacco.
  2. To evaluate the effectiveness of a nurse-led brief intervention on reducing dependence and enhancing readiness to change behavior among experimental and control group individuals using smokeless tobacco.
  3. To find out the correlation between dependence and readiness to change behavior among individuals using smokeless tobacco.
  4. To determine the association between dependence and readiness to change behavior with their selected socio-demographic variables among individuals using smokeless tobacco.

Hypothesis:

  • H0 (Null Hypothesis): There will be no significant difference in dependence and readiness to change behavior scores between the experimental and control groups at a 0.05 level of significance.
  • H1 (Alternative Hypothesis): The nurse-led brief intervention will significantly reduce dependence and improve readiness to change behavior among the experimental group compared to the control group at a 0.05 level of significance.
