Purpose
Development
of an intervention
model to address clinician
knowledge, attitudes, and
intentions surrounding provision
of LARCs to adolescents may
result in declines in the
adolescent pregnancy rate as
teens choose more effective
methods of contraception.
Empiric Knowing
"Empirics as a pattern of knowing is grounded in
science and other empirically based methodologies"
(Chinn & Kramer, 2011, p 11)
In order to develop a model which will effectively
address clinician attitudes and behaviors
regarding long-acting reversible contraceptives for
adolescents, it is essential to understand:
How adolescent pregnancy impact teens individually
and collectively.
Current state of clinician attitudes and knowledge levels.
Benefits and risks of long-acting reversible
contraceptive method use for adolescents.
Factors that influence teen contraceptive decisionmaking.
Effective strategies for clinician behavior change
interventions.
Aesthetic Knowing
"Aesthetic knowing makes it possible to
move beyond the surface to sense the
meaning of the moment and to connect
with human experiences that are unique
for each person" (Chinn & Kramer, 2011,
p 9)
It is essential to consider how this
intervention will impact clinicians and
their patients.
Clinician practice environments are not
homogenous: how will this intervention
impact the clinician in his or her
practice environment and community?
Ethical Knowing
"Ethical knowing...involves clarifying
conflicting values and exploring
alternative interests, principles, and
actions" (Chinn & Kramer, 2011, p 7)
It is essential to recognize that clinicians
may have personal beliefs that conflict
with the intention of the intervention: to
increase use of LARCs in teens.
Clinicians may also work in practice
environments or communities where
LARCs would not be welcomed or would
cause community friction.
Personal Knowing
Personal knowing encompasses knowing
ones own Self as well as the Self in relation
to others (Chinn & Kramer, 2011, p 8).
A clinician intervention should consider how
opinions, beliefs, and habits influence
practices in contraceptive counseling.
Clinician recommendation is one of the
most important predictors of adolescent
contraceptive choice, but how does the
relationship between clinician and
adolescent impact this? How can a strong
relationship be fostered?
Emancipatory Knowing
Emancipatory knowing begins with
awareness of social problems such as
injustices and questions why they exist
(Chinn & Kramer, 2011, p 6).
It is essential to maintain a focus on why the
issue of adolescent pregnancy is important.
Consider how access and financial barriers
may impact use of LARCs in low-income
areas.
Minority adolescents have
disproportionately higher rates of
pregnancy.
