Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an educational program about reproductive health promotion on knowledge, attitude, and behavior at reproductive age in Luwero district in Uganda. A single-group pretest-posttest design was used to find the effect of education. Subjects were 720 women of reproductive age (15–49 years) who lived in seven sub-counties in Luwero district. First, individuals working as midwifes in the community were trained; subsequently, these individuals administered the education program to community members including the village health team. The results indicate that education affected participants’ knowledge (t = 29.58, p < .001), attitude (t = 25.16, p < .001), and behavior (t = 12.98, p < .001) regarding family planning and reproductive health.
