Interventions
Tailored Intervention Information contained in the tailored
intervention was derived from the theoretically specified
predictors of use of HPDs, but was tailored to:
• individuals’ responses to survey questionnaire items
• reported type of HPD used
• perceived hearing ability
• self-reported use of HPDs.
In addition, positive feedback was given for high
reported use of HPDs and for optimal perceptions in relation
to items measuring components of the model (e.g., a
“strongly agree” response to “Using hearing protection
prevents hearing loss”).
