Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Measured after the first dengue season (year 2) and in the third year, at the end of this phase of the trial: 1. Childhood recent dengue infection (age 4 - 9 years) as estimated by saliva IgG (two samples with 4-fold increase in titre) 2. Entomological index (pupal density) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Measured after the first dengue season (year 2) and in the third year, at the end of this phase of the trial: "CASCADA" of intermediate outcomes: 1. Conscious knowledge regarding dengue, its prevention and control 2. Attitudes (in relation to different options for dengue control; is it worth doing this or that action) 3. Subjective norms (what neighbours do) and positive deviations from a negative norm 4. Intention to change behaviour in the future and to implement preventive action 5. Agency (collective and individual self-efficacy - feel capable of carrying out the actions in a sustained manner and with one's own resources) 6. Socialisation (discussions about dengue, its prevention, control and consequences) 7. Action (interventions, practices) 8. Health literacy, resilience, social capital | — |
