This study outlines a 5-phase process for creating a tailored multimedia computer program to encourage factory workers to use hearing protection, aiming to prevent noise-induced hearing loss.

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Health Communication
  • Multimedia Interventions

Background:

  • Tailored health messages effectively motivate behavior change.
  • Developing tailored health promotion programs presents significant challenges.
  • Noise-induced hearing loss is a preventable occupational hazard.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the creation process of a tailored multimedia computer program.
  • To promote the use of hearing protection devices among factory workers.
  • To prevent noise-induced hearing loss in an industrial setting.

Main Methods:

  • The program development involved 5 distinct phases: content determination, design creation, tailoring pathway integration, database and handout development, and pilot testing.
  • Utilized live-action and still video, sound, and graphics for program design.
