A total of 200 Tuberculosis Patients undergoing DOTS was selected using purposive sampling. The dependent variable was DOTS compliance. The independent variable was construct of health belief model. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using a multiple logistic regression.
Results: Perceived threat (b= 0.20; 95% CI= 0.06 to 0.35; p= 0.007), perceived benefit (b= 0.31; 95% CI= 0.14 – 0.49; p= 0.001), and self-efficacy (b= 0.24; 95% CI= 0.13 to 0.36; p< 0.001) significantly increased TB-DOTS compliance. Perceived barrier significantly decreased TB-DOTS compliance (b= -0.21; 95% CI= -0.31 to -0.11; p< 0.001).
