The effects of single and multiple BOPPPS-integrated model sessions on public health students' competences: a two-stage study combining quasi-experimental and cross-sectional analyses.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundEffective instructional approaches for fostering students' competences in public health education remain to be explored. This study aimed to integrate the bridge-in, objective, pre-assessment, participatory learning, post-assessment, and summary (BOPPPS) framework with problem-based learning (PBL), team-based learning (TBL), and case-based learning (CBL) to develop a novel instructional model, termed the BOPPPS-integrated model (BIM), and to assess the influences of single and multiple BIM interventions on the competences of undergraduate public health students.
methodsA two-stage study was conducted by a quasi-experimental pilot study and a cross-sectional survey. First, the quasi-experiment compared a traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) group (n = 50) with a BIM group (n = 48) to evaluate the effect of a single BIM intervention. Second, a cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the impacts of multiple BIM sessions across three groups: control (n = 96), basic intervention (1-2 times BIM, n = 66), and intensive intervention (≥ 3 times BIM, n = 62). All participants completed a self-administered questionnaire designed to evaluate seven competence dimensions: information literacy, summarization, expressive communication, critical thinking, self-directed learning, teamwork, and objective evaluation, which are essential for public health students to address complex public health challenges.
resultsStudents who received single and multiple BIM instructional sessions scored significantly higher in information literacy, expressive communication, and teamwork than those who received LBL method (P < 0.05). Multiple BIM interventions further improved scores in summarization, self-directed learning, and objective evaluation (P < 0.05). The scores of six dimensions like information literacy, summarization, expressive communication, self-directed learning, teamwork, and objective evaluation showed an upward trend as the number of interventions increased (P for trend < 0.05).
conclusionsA single BIM intervention effectively improved students' competences in information literacy, teamwork, and expressive communication. Additionally, multiple BIM interventions not only consolidated these competences but also fostered summarization, self-directed learning, and objective evaluation, thereby highlighting the importance of BIM in developing students' competences in public health education.
