- What is the level of osteoporosis awareness among nursing students at the start of the study?
- Does scenario-based education have an impact on osteoporosis awareness?
Participants:
All student nurses participating in the study will first receive theoretical training on osteoporosis. At the end of the training, a scenario example prepared by the researchers on the topic of osteoporosis is worked on with the students in the experimental group. No additional intervention is carried out with the control group.
Read the detailed description
In this study, 124 nursing students randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups are first interviewed using the personal information questionnaire and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale. This is followed by a four-hour theoretical lesson prepared by the researchers in accordance with current literature and textbooks on osteoporosis as part of the Joint and Connective Tissue Diseases and Nursing course. At the end of the theoretical lessons, a scenario example prepared by the researchers, again using current literature and case presentations, will be worked on with the students in the experimental group. No other application is made for the control group. The Personal Information Questionnaire and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale will be re-administered to both groups four weeks after the end of the theoretical lesson.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ExperimentalOther
The experimental group will first be given a theoretical lesson prepared in line with the current literature on osteoporosis. At the end of the lesson, a prepared scenario example on osteoporosis will be covered.
ControlOther
The control group will only be given a theoretical lesson prepared in line with the current literature on osteoporosis. No other intervention will be made.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Experimental group: Scenario group | Experimental | Theoretical lesson on osteoporosis and a scenario example on osteoporosis will be covered with the experimental group. Receives: Other: Experimental |
| Other: Control group | Other | The control group will be given a theoretical lesson on osteoporosis. No additional intervention will be made. Receives: Other: Control |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Osteoporosis awareness level will be assessed using the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale.
The Osteoporosis Awareness Scale consists of 31 items and 5 subscales. Responses to scale items are rated on a 4-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 to 4 (4 = I know very well, 3 = I know, 2 = I know a little, 1 = I don't know at all). The lowest and highest possible scores from the scale are 31 and 124, respectively. The higher the average score obtained from the overall scale, the higher the osteoporosis awareness.
Measured: Change from before implementation and 4th week of practice
