The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of structured sexual health education for immigrant women on their levels of sexual health self-efficacy and reproductive autonomy using a randomized controlled design.
Sexuality is a fundamental aspect of human life that encompasses biological, psychological, and social dimensions and is shaped by individuals' personality traits, life experiences, and social conditions. Sexual satisfaction and adjustment are related not only to physical processes but also to psychological well-being and interpersonal relationships. In this context, sexual self-efficacy-defined as an individual's belief in their ability to manage emotions and behaviors in sexual situations-plays an important role, while reproductive autonomy refers to the ability to freely decide whether and when to have children. Migrant women may be more vulnerable in these areas due to various social and structural barriers; therefore, efforts aimed at strengthening sexual health self-efficacy and reproductive autonomy are considered important.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The primary endpoint will be the change in the mean RAS score between baseline (pre-intervention) and post-intervention assessments. | 1. Level of Reproductive Autonomy: Participants' level of reproductive autonomy will be assessed using the scale developed by Upadhyay et al. The Reproductive Autonomy Scale (RAS), developed by (2014) and validated and proven reliable in Turkish by Dursun and Gözüyeşil (2023), will be used for evaluation. The scale consists of 14 items and three sub-dimensions (Decision Making, Coercion Avoidance, Communication). The unit of measurement is the scale score, which is calculated as the average score obtained by dividing the total score by the number of items. Higher scores indicate higher reproductive autonomy. |
