The sample consists of 30 elderly females with urinary incontinence. Data were collected by using a knowledge test. There was a Kuder-Richardson confidence value of 20 equal to .70 and a self-care behavior questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha coefficient of confidence was .80. Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics, and an independent t-test.
The results show that after using the program, the sample group’s knowledge mean, and self-care behaviour was higher than before receiving the program. There is statistical significance at the .01 level (t = 5.25, 12.66). There is a decrease in urinary frequency severity for 2 persons, representing 6.67%, while there is a decrease in urinary frequency severity. 6 people, equal to 20.00 per cent and the level of satisfaction with the urinary control training program is at a high level (M = 4.24, SD = .42).
