Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of e-learning education intervention, on nutrition and health practices of rural women, before and after receiving intervention for a period of 6 months. A total of 100 rural women from three rural villages of Telangana, India were randomly selected. A validated questionnaire was used to assess the practice of pre and post intervention. Correlation matrices were computed between the independent variables and pre- post practice scores. It was also established using multiple regression models, on which variables have effects on practices. It was seen that, age was found to be positively and highly significant before intervention. Education and occupation were shown to be negatively significant, with the pre practice scores. Post intervention for only age and family type, showed a positive significant relationship, whereas occupation revealed a negative but highly significant relationship. The findings explained that occupation, type of family, income and urban contact had high significance and independent effects (P<0.01). It can be explained that, nutrition and health practices of rural women, even at a very basic level plays an important role in shaping them towards their own good health and nutritional status.
