| dc.description | The dataset includes respondents’ socio-demographic information such as age, sex, department, residence, religion, parents’ educational level, year of study, and age group. It also captures institutional factors related to HBV infection prevention, including the availability of HBV-related courses, handwashing facilities, water and soap supply, personal protective equipment (gowns, gloves), sharp containers, disinfectants, hand sanitizers, and access to infection prevention guidelines and post-exposure protocols. Knowledge-related variables assess respondents’ understanding of HBV transmission routes, prevention methods, complications (such as liver cirrhosis and liver cancer), vaccination, laboratory testing, post-exposure prophylaxis, and public health importance of HBV. Attitudinal variables measure perceptions toward personal risk, screening, vaccination, caring for HBV-infected patients, infection control guidelines, mandatory vaccination, and stigma-related beliefs. Practice-related variables evaluate infection prevention behaviors, including use of personal protective equipment, hand hygiene, needle handling and disposal, reporting of needlestick injuries, waste disposal, HBV screening and vaccination status, and involvement in unsafe sex. Finally, the dataset summarizes outcomes using grouped scores for knowledge level, practice level, and attitude level. | |
