Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To calculate the treatment effect on the average physical distance observed during social interactions and the rate of reduction of social interactions (calculated on the subjective information of the participant) To measure the treatment effect on the average physical distance observed during social interactions and the reduction rate of social interactions (calculated objectively by evaluating the social interactions of the participant for one week) ;To calculate the treatment effect on adherence or willingness to a healthy diet for the family To calculate the treatment effect on the incidence of types of diets during the participation change to healthy diet ;To calculate the treatment effect on the average score of exposure to parasitic diseases transmitted by transcutaneous routes (calculated according to the information provided by the participant) To calculate the treatment effect on the average score of exposure to parasitic diseases transmitted by transcutaneous routes calculated objectively by participating actions of the researcher To calculate the treatment effect on the average score of action and incentive to act to prevent transcutaneous transmission To calculate the treatment effect on the average score corrected by integration in the attitude

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To calculate the proportion of participants who reduce social interactions at the start of the epidemic. To calculate the effect of the treatment on the frequency of relational, economic, emotional or psycho-affective, rejection or denial decisional constructs To calculate the treatment effect on the means for the epidemic ending, the importance of pharmacopoeia, pharmaceuticals and vaccination at the end of the epidemic ;To calculate the treatment effect in the re-allocation of resources to a healthy diet ;To calculate the treatment effect on the relative frequency of relational, economic, emotional or psycho-affective, rejection or denial decisional constructs To calculate the treatment effect on the proportion of participants with the wish to eliminate intestinal parasitic diseases (worms), urinary (bilharzia), blood (filaria) Exploratory endpoints To calculate the treatment effect on the relative frequencies of 1) the importance and recognition of soil-transmitted helminth infection, 2) the importance of pharmacopoeia, 3) pharmaceuticals and vaccination to control STHI, 4) and the use of live and local parasites for the end of these diseases.
