This study was performed to compare effectiveness of two teaching methods, role playing and lecture on primigravida women’s knowledge, attitude and performance according to type of delivery.
Methods: In this single blind clinical trial study, 67 primigravida women in 34-36 weeks, with normal pregnancy and without indication of cesarean who referred to Mashhad Health Care Center in year 2010, divided randomly into role-playing and lecture educational groups. Pretest and posttest performed by using a questionnaire (valid, made by researcher and reliable with the factor analysis) in both groups. Training in role-playing group was employed by three scenarios in seven stages. Data were analyzed by different proportions, T-paired, independent T & chi-square methods and SPSS software version 14.
Results: Percentage of changes in knowledge scores was significant in two groups (P=0.001). Participants’ attitude was significant before and after intervention in both groups (P<0.05). Mean difference of pre-test and post-test of knowledge and attitude scores was not significant in two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in performance between two groups, but elective cesarean in role playing was one-fifth of the lecture group.
Conclusion: Lecture was more effective in raising knowledge level and reducing elective caesarean section.
