What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Quantitative method - The Numerical Rating Scale(NRS)

    It was applied to the experimental and control groups in order to quantitatively measure the effectiveness of stress management training, which was applied for 8 weeks.

    Measured: five months

  2. Qualitative methot-Semi-structured focus group interview form

    It was applied to evaluate the opinions and suggestions of the experimental group about the training program.

    Measured: one weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)

  1. Perceived Stress Scale (PSS)

    The education given was used to determine the perceived stress levels of the students. While the scores obtained from the PSS range from 0 to 56, a high score from the scale indicates that the person is highly stressed.

    Measured: five months

  2. Scale of Stress-Coping Styles (SCSS)

    The training given was used to determine the students' levels of coping with stress. Higher scores indicate that the person uses that style more. The total score is a minimum of 30 and a maximum of 120 points.

    Measured: five months

  3. Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES)

    The education given was used to determine the self-esteem levels of the students. Scale items score between 0 and 6, and self-esteem; are evaluated as high (0-1 points), medium (2-4 points) and low (5-6 points). In other words, the higher the score a person gets from the scale, the lower the self-esteem level is.

    Measured: five months

  4. Oxford Happiness Scale-Short Form (OHQ-SF)

    The education given was used to determine the happiness levels of the students. A score between 7 and 35 is taken from the scale. A high score from the scale indicates a high level of happiness.

    Measured: five months

  5. General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12)

    The education given was used to determine the general health levels of the students. The scale is likert style and consists of 4 options. The first two options are evaluated as "0" and the last two options as "1" points. The highest possible score is "12" and the lowest score is "0". Those who score 4 or more on the scale are evaluated as "high", those with 2-3 points as "medium", and those with less than 2 points as "low". The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the probability of psychiatric disorder.

    Measured: five months
