In intervention group, educational text messages based on HBM was sent via Telegram during one month regularly. Three months later, both Intervention and control group completed researcher-made questionnaires by self-report. The data were analyzed by Chi-square test, paired t-test, Pearson’s test and SPSS 19 software.
Findings: There was no significant difference in several demographic characteristics between two groups. Comparison of the mean difference of knowledge and in HBM constructs before of intervention in the groups showed no significant difference (p>0.05). There was a significant mean difference in the HBM constructs between two groups after intervention (p<0.05). There were significant correlations between the HBM constructs (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Educational messages improve the perception constructs of HBM constructs for adopting self-care behaviors.
