Effect of educational intervention on the intention to provide family-centered care among selected hospitals’ paediatric nurses in Tehran, Iran by Rostami, Forouzan

“…The most significant predictor was attitude (β = 0.393, t =5.914, p < 0.01), followed by perceived behaviour control (β = 0.320, t = 4.815, p < 0.01) and subjective norms (β = 0.172, t = 2.184, p < 0.01). The last model was related to the follow-up test and the results showed the same pattern where attitude still showed the highest impact on intention (β = 0.319, t = 4.889, p < 0.01) followed by perceived behaviour control (β = 0.309, t = 5.174, p < 0.01) and subjective norms (β =0.264, t = 4.138, p < 0.01). …”
