摘要

Objective

This study used the Knowledge and Access Power (KAP) mobile platform to assess the awareness and knowledge of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) among adolescents in the Greater Accra and Eastern Regions of Ghana.

Methods

A mobile application, referred to as the KAP app was designed to assess SRH awareness and knowledge. To evaluate SRH awareness and knowledge among adolescents, an invitation to download and access the mobile application was sent via social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, and WhatsApp. A total of 386 adolescents downloaded the app and attempted the pre- and post-module quizzes.

Results

From the quiz participation snapshot data, users attempted 1,040 quizzes. Descriptive statistics revealed that the overall average score received on SRH before completing the learning modules was 67.98 (SD = 26.597), while the overall average score gained on SRH after completing the learning modules was 73.66 (SD = 25.142). The pre- and post-module SRH scores were compared using a paired samples t-test, and the results showed a statistically significant difference between the two sets of scores [t(182) = -2.58, p = 0.010]. Based on these findings, using the KAP app can help increase SRH knowledge among teenagers.
