Short-term impact of the EuroPean Accredited Curriculum onTobacco Treatment Training (EPACTT) program
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this pilot study was to assess the short-term effectiveness of the EuroPean Accredited Curriculum on Tobacco Treatment Training intervention in improving health care providers' knowledge, attitudes and self-efficacy related to tobacco dependence treatment. METHODS: A pre-post pilot study was conducted. The two-day training intervention took place in Brussels in April 2016. Health care professionals from six European countries (Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Romania and Greece) were purposively invited to participate in the study. Evaluation was performed before the intervention, immediately after, and at approximately two months following the intervention. Changes in outcomes of interest were examined before and after exposure to the intervention program. RESULTS: In all, 47 health care professionals participated in the training of which 40 completed the evaluation surveys. Significant increases in providers' self-efficacy and perceived behavioral control related to tobacco treatment delivery were documented immediately following the training and at the 2 months follow-up. Significant improvement in provider knowledge and attitudes were observed in some items assessed. CONCLUSIONS: The results demonstrate that training is able to improve provider self-efficacy related to tobacco treatment delivery in this cross-national European sample of health care professionals. Additional research is required to examine the generalizability of our findings.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
