简要总结
This study aimed to develop a health promotion behavior intervention for elderly migrants and evaluate its effects, in order to provide insights for enhancing health-promoting behaviors among elderly migrants, improving community-based health management services for this population, and addressing health challenges related to migration in an aging society.
详细描述
This study employed a randomized controlled trial design, with elderly migrants in Huzhou City as participants, randomly assigned to either an intervention or control group. The control group received routine community care, while the intervention group underwent a 12-week "Health Promotion Behavior Intervention Program for Elderly Migrants" based on the Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) theory. The intervention targeted motivation, capability, and opportunity through six dimensions, including health habits, social participation, and health responsibility, delivered via group interactions, face-to-face sessions, online resources, and community activities. Standardized scales were used to assess health promotion behaviors, self-perceived aging, family care, and loneliness at baseline, 6 weeks, and post-intervention. Data analysis involved Shapiro-Wilk tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests.

结局指标
主要结局
the geriatric health promotion scale
时间窗: baseline, week 6, and week 12
The health-promoting behaviors of elderly migrants were assessed using the the geriatric health promotion scale. This scale consists of 22 items across six dimensions: health habits, social participation, health responsibility, healthy diet, physical exercise, and oral health care. A 4-point Likert scale was used for scoring, with higher scores indicating better health-promoting behaviors. In this study, the Cronbach's α coefficient for this scale was 0.843, demonstrating good internal consistency reliability.
次要结局
- the brief ageing perceptions questionnaire (B-APQ)(baseline, week 6, and week 12)
- The family APGAR(baseline, week 6, and week 12)
