One barrier to hand hygiene compliance is overestimation of one's own performance. Overconfidence research shows that tends be higher for difficult tasks, which suggests the magnitude also depends on how it assessed. Thus, we tested hypothesis was stronger indications with low (i.e., high difficulty), and self-reported overall based a single item than "5 Moments Hand Hygiene" (WHO-5) items, since implies an aggregation across indications.
Implementation interventions in infection prevention and control (IPC) differ by recipients. The two target groups are healthcare workers directly involved patient care (“frontline”) IPC professionals as proxy agents, that is, implementation support practitioners. While both types of aim to promote compliance with clinical prevent healthcare-associated infections (HAI), their tailoring may be vastly different, for example, due different behavioural outcomes. Additionally, teams, recipients...
Abstract Background Prevention of surgical site infections (SSIs), which due to their long-term consequences are especially critical in orthopedic surgery, entails compliance with over 20 individual measures. However, little is known about the psychosocial determinants such among physicians, impedes efforts tailor implementation interventions improve compliance. Thus, for this professional group, pilot survey examined self-reported compliance, have been theoretically derived from COM-B...
Zusammenfassung Die transparente Kommunikation von Risiken und wissenschaftlicher Unsicherheit kann das Vertrauen in die kommunizierenden Akteur*innen Akzeptanz eingeführte präventive Maßnahmen fördern. der Pandemie zugrunde liegenden Determinanten sind jedoch noch nicht hinreichend zuverlässig abschätzbar. Es werden ausgewählte epidemiologische Kennzahlen Lösungsansätze dargestellt, wie eine Risiko- Unsicherheitskommunikation gelingen kann.
Psychosocial determinants influence healthcare workers' compliance with surgical site infection (SSI) preventive interventions. In order to design needs-based interventions promoting compliance, such must first be assessed using valid and reliable questionnaire scales. To compare professional groups without bias, the scales also measurement-equivalent. We examine validity/reliability measurement equivalence of four data from physicians nurses outside university sector. Additionally, we...

Asking health care workers self-report using a single item common but since responses must based aggregation across “5 Moments Hand Hygiene” (WHO-5). We tested hypothesis self-reported overall one than WHO-5-items. Additionally, we compared both and...
Abstract Background Compliance to prevent healthcare-associated infections varies between physicians and nurses. Understanding these differences is the key adapt, i.e., tailor interventions promote compliance. To measure determinants be taken into account in tailoring processes, reliable valid instruments with measurement equivalence (ME) across professional groups are needed. Aim determine reliability, validity, ME of questionnaire scales assess compliance surgical site (SSI) based on...
Abstract Objective: Psychosocial determinants influence healthcare workers’ compliance with infection prevention and control measures. In order to design needs-based interventions promoting compliance, such must first be assessed using valid reliable questionnaire scales. To compare professional groups without bias, the scales also measurement-equivalent. This study examines these psychometric properties of four that assess influencing surgical site (SSI) Exploratively, associations...
