To explore the dog-raising behavior of children and adolescents and its influencing factors based on the health action process approach (HAPA), so as to provide reference for the prevention and control of echinococcosis.
A questionnaire based on HAPA was developed to investigate students in four schools in Nagqu City, Tibet from October 2024 to April 2025. The factors influencing dog-raising behavior were analyzed by structural equation model.
Among the 942 children and adolescents with dog-raising at home included in this study, the unqualified rate of dog-raising behaviors was 69.9%. In the HAPA model, the intention of correct dog-raising behavior was influenced by outcome expectations [standard path coefficient (95% CI)=0.321 (0.224-0.411), P<0.001]. The intention of correct dog-raising behavior and maintenance self-efficacy directly affected the action plan, with standard path coefficients (95% CI) of 0.225 (0.138-0.314) and 0.560 (0.417-0.695) respectively, and P values were both <0.001. The action plan directly affected the correct dog-raising behavior [standard path coefficient (95% CI)=0.160 (0.013-0.341), P<0.05]. Social support had an indirect effect on correct dog-raising behavior by influencing the action plan [effect value (95% CI)=0.025 (0.003-0.037), P<0.05].
The correct dog-raising behaviors of children and adolescents are influenced by the action plan.The intention of correct dog-raising behavior and social support indirectly affect correct dog-raising behavior through the action plan. In health education strategies, the formulation of the action plan can be taken as the key intervention point to promote children and adolescents to form correct dog-raising behaviors.
