Interventionfidelity was assessed by considering the retention rate, compliance rate,and the instructor and program quality evaluation scale. Participants wereevaluated using a Likert-type scale to measure acceptability and satisfaction,with one indicating low satisfaction and five indicating very satisfied.Results: suggest that the HPV prevention program was successfullyimplemented, showing an average session completion rate of 89.11%, anacceptability rate of 97.7%, and high participant satisfaction (M = 4.502,SD = 0.627). The content, activities, and facilitators were well received andadapted to their needs.Conclutions: The structure and design of the intervention program areeffective and feasible to evaluate whether the intervention is truly achievingits main objective. |
