The sample consisted of 199 VHVs from the lowest dengue incidence area and 156 VHVs from the highest dengue incidence area. The research instruments consisted of a survey form of house index and the questionnaires with the reliability within the range of .63-.90. Data were collected from May to July, 2015. Statistics used for data analysis included frequency, percentage, Z-test, and Chi-square test.</p> <p>The results revealed that 1) the house index had no statistically significant difference between a low and a high dengue incidence area; and 2) the VHVs in a low dengue incidence area had statistically significant better knowledge of dengue hemorrhagic fever than those in a high dengue incidence area (c<sup>2</sup> = 7.515,<em> p</em> < .01). Nevertheless, the VHVs in a low dengue incidence area had statistically significant less perceived severity of dengue hemorrhagic fever and leadership for dengue hemorrhagic fever surveillance, prevention and control than those in a high dengue incidence area (c<sup>2</sup> = 11.962,<em> p</em> < .01 and c<sup>2</sup> = 15.784,<em> p</em> < .001, respectively).</p> <p>This study suggested that health care providers should proactively enhance knowledge of and perceived severity toward dengue hemorrhagic fever among VHVs.</p>}, number={Suppl. 1}, journal={Journal of Phrapokklao Nursing College, Chanthaburi}, author={วงษ์ประเสริฐ พัชรนันท์ and สุวรรณผ่อง นวรัตน์ and ทิพยมงคลกุล มธุรส and โหวธีระกุล นพพร}, year={2018}, month={Apr.}, pages={56–66} }
