Abstract
In order to accomplish the goals of this
research, we asked high-risk adults about their knowledge, attitudes, and
behaviors about diabetes prevention. Using integrated behavioral theories as a
starting point, the cross-sectional investigation highlighted key shortcomings.
While all of the study's participants were at risk for developing diabetes,
only 32% showed any awareness of their condition. Attitudes marked by poor
self-efficacy and incorrect risk assessment were prevalent, even though only
39.7% of respondents could correctly determine their risk. As a result of these
variables working together, only 41.7% of the population met the compliance
standards for physical activity and poor adherence to dietary needs. Through
the use of structural equation modeling, it was shown that there is a
significant knowledge-attitude-practice route; the main challenges, however,
are the lack of time and resources. The results clearly show that in order to
help high-risk populations successfully bridge the gap between preventive
knowledge and long-term behavioral change, interventions that include targeted
education, confidence-boosting tactics, and strong structural support are
essential. Populations that are at risk for developing diabetes are
increasingly being studied for their knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors (KAP)
on diabetes prevention.
