This research aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of nursing innovation "Promotion, Prevention, Protection Board Game (Triple P Board Game)" by integrating the design thinking process and the theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ). The study was divided into two phases: Phase 1 the development of board game innovation, and Phase 2 evaluation of the nursing innovation effectiveness. The sample group consisted of 30 female secondary school students from Sap Yai District, Chaiyaphum Province. Data collection instruments included a knowledge questionnaire, a health literacy questionnaire, and a questionnaire on feasibility of implementing the innovation. The reliability was tested using Kuder-Richardson 20 (KR-20), which obtained reliability index of 0.949 and Cronbach's Alpha coefficient of 0.998. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics.
The findings revealed that the nursing innovation "Promotion, Prevention, Protection Board Game (Triple P Board Game)", which was developed by adapting from the traditional Monopoly board game, serves as an educational medium designed to convey knowledge about preventing unintended pregnancy. This nursing innovation comprised playing equipment, rules, and a user manual, which had been examined for content quality by experts and were refined prior to being tested. Post-trial, participants demonstrated high knowledge scores (70%), moderate overall health literacy scores (mean=3.56, SD=1.50), and high feasibility ratings for implementation (mean=4.64, SD=0.30). This nursing innovation can be applied as part of unintended pregnancy prevention programs or as a medium for sex education communication between youth and adults such as parents, teachers, and community nurses. It emphasizes creating a safe learning environment and reducing discomfort in sex education communication, which aligns with guidelines for promoting appropriate sexual health for youth.
