Video in non-violent education and development of healthy lifestyles in schoolchildren

Abstract

The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of the "Educate without violence" program to reduce family violence and the development of healthy lifestyles in schoolchildren in rural areas of Huánuco, with an explanatory type, quasi-experimental design with before and after measurement. The sample was made up of 230 schoolchildren from Educational Institutions in six locations. The instruments were validated by experts with a reliability of 0.88; obtaining the following results. In the schoolchildren in the pre-test the average of 34.57 increased to 35.94 in the post-test, demonstrating that there are significant differences through the t of 1.51, with an intermediate effect size according to Cohen's d of 0.63 with 95% CI (0.31- 0.95). Likewise with families, the pre-test mean of 74.12 increased to 93.6, after applying the program in terms of information and change of attitudes about violence prevention and family roles.
