| description | Malaria in Nigeria and Africa remains most important health problem.It remains a vital public health fear of our time.Human behaviour is a tremendous challenge that must be addressed if malaria control and ultimately elimination is to be successful. This study was aimed to measure the validity and reliability of instruments of household behaviour on malaria control.The reliability of each construct is determined using Cronbach’s Alpha statistics. The Cronbach’s Alpha results provide evidence
and good acceptable value that indicates the instruments were sufficiently valid and reliable. |
