SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Pre-Survey, immediately post intervention

Population: One individual of the 20 total participants completed the pre-test and received the intervention but did not complete the post-test.

Participant total of 13 Likert-style questions asking about how active a role they have taken in determining their health care. Measurement presented is the sum of 13 Likert items 1-5 to create a scale score. Possible score range from 13-65, with higher scores indicating more activation.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: immediately post intervention

Population: One individual of the 20 total participants completed the pre-test and received the intervention but did not complete the post-test.

15 questions asking participants about the information, motivation, and behavioral skills they possess relating to spacing pregnancies by 18 months or longer, split into information, motivation, and behavioral self-efficacy variables. Three subscales are presented: information subscale, motivation subscale, and behavioral skills subscale. The information scale is the summed correct answers to 7 questions, possible score 0-7. Motivation subscale is the sum of 6 Likert-type items with values from 1-4, for possible scores of 6-24; higher score is better. Behavioral skills subscale is the sum of 5 Likert-type items with values from 1-5, for possible subscales scores of 5-25; higher score is better.
