Abstract

Background and Objectiv: The Elderly are at risk of the negative effects of stress, anxiety and depression and all these factors must be identified; then the current survey was aimed to investigate the effect of theory-based education (Theory of Planned Behavior) on subscales of Mental Health of elders. Methods: In an experimental study, one hundred elders (50 allocated randomly to the intervention group and 50 to the control group) aged over 60 were chosen. Data were collected using two instruments including a DASS-21 standard questionnaire and a researcher-made questionnaire. Education was provided in ten sessions (70 minutes) based on Theory of Planned Behavior. Data were assessed in pre-intervention and 8 weeks follow-up and finally analyzed using SPSS20 and Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, Independent t-test, and Paired t-test. Results: The mean score of knowledge, attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control of the intervention group was significantly higher 8 weeks after educational program and the mean score of DASS (stress, anxiety and depression) was lower than the control group (P<0. 001). The Pearson correlation test showed a significant relationship between the DASS score and theory constructs eight weeks after intervention (P<0. 001). Conclusion: According to current findings, Mental Health of Elderly and public health will be likely increased because of the use of effective educational program for elders’ care.
