Abstract
Background: Among hill tribe people, there are many festivals related to alcohol consumption, which begins from adolescence. Alcohol consumption affects both physical and mental health and has an impact on the family and society.
Objective: To investigate the effect of applying social cognitive theory on the stages of change, health status, and quality of life of the Lahu Hill Tribe people in Chiang Rai.
Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted on a sample of Lahu hill tribe people. A total of 65 individuals aged 16 to 65 years had been alcohol dependent for at least 6 months. The sample group received a program to reduce alcohol consumption by applying social cognitive theory to 7 activities over a 4-week period. They were assessed for the levels of change in alcohol consumption behavior, alcohol consumption levels, health status, and quality of life before and after participation in the program. Descriptive statistics and paired t-test was used to analyze the data.
Results: After participation in the program, the stages of change in alcohol consumption behavior improved. In addition, alcohol consumption, verbal performance, working memory (p<.001), cardiopulmonary endurance (p<.05), and quality of life (p<.001) were significantly different from before receiving the program.
Conclusions The alcohol consumption reduction program using social cognitive theory had an effect on changing drinking behavior, promoting health, and quality of life among the Lahu hill tribe people. Further study on program outcomes should be monitored for sustainable development.
