The Effectiveness of Social Learning-Based Planned Education on Menstruation in Visually Impaired Young Women
The Effectiveness of Social Learning-Based Planned Education on Menstruation in Visually Impaired Young Women
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of face-to-face practical training based on social learning theory on developing and changing skills and behaviors in providing genital and menstrual hygiene and improving menstrual self-care skills of visually impaired young women.
Our hypotheses are:
H1: There is a difference between the mean Menstruation Symptom Questionnaire scores of the intervention group at the pre- and post-training follow-ups.
H2: There is a difference between the mean Genital Hygiene Behaviors Scale scores of the intervention group at the pre- and post-training follow-ups.
H3: There is a difference between the mean Menstruation Symptom Questionnaire scores of the intervention and control groups at the post-training follow-ups.
H4: There is a difference between the mean Genital Hygiene Behaviors Scale scores of the intervention and control groups at the post-training follow-ups.
H5: The mean Menstrual Self-Care Skill List scores of the intervention group after the training were higher than before the training. Researchers compared the knowledge and behavioral changes of the experimental and control groups after the training.
Participants did the following:They fully participated in the planned training, performed the skill applications, and answered the survey questions completely. They were expected to apply the knowledge and skills they learned in the training in their daily lives for 9 months. At the end of the 9th month, a follow-up interview was conducted, and an attitude assessment was performed.
