Article Synopsis
- Breast-feeding rates in rural southeastern U.S. are lower than national averages, prompting a study focused on improving knowledge and attitudes about breast-feeding among adolescents through educational intervention.
- The intervention included an interactive game and was conducted in two high schools, with students completing pre- and postsurveys to assess any changes in their understanding and beliefs regarding breast-feeding.
- Results showed significant improvements in students' knowledge, attitudes about breast-feeding benefits, and intentions to breast-feed, indicating that targeted educational efforts can effectively enhance awareness in this demographic.
