Qualitative study to inform intervention development for behaviour change in adults with chronic lung disease in rural India

This qualitative research informed the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB)-based intervention development. This dataset was generated as part of formative research conducted on patients of chronic respiratory disease (CRD), their caregivers and community members to get a perception of their awareness, practices of health behaviour and their opinions regarding CRD. The study also elicited the socio-cultural barriers and the psycho-social effects due to the disease. The insight into the existing health behaviour and the barriers to appropriate behaviour informed the development of a TPB based health intervention for behaviour change in patients with CRD.
