Read the detailed description
This study investigates how first aid training based on experiential learning affects the knowledge and self-sufficiency of parents with children who have intellectual disabilities. The research is designed as a randomized controlled trial, which means participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group receiving the training or a control group that does not.
The experiential learning approach involves hands-on activities, simulations, and interactive sessions aimed at improving the parents' practical first aid skills. The study will measure changes in parents' knowledge and confidence in providing first aid before and after the training.
The outcomes of this research will help determine whether this type of training can empower parents to better respond to emergencies involving their children, potentially improving safety and wellbeing.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Experiential First Aid TrainingBehavioural
A first aid training program based on Kolb's Experiential Learning Model conducted in four sessions using real-life scenarios and group exercises.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| No Intervention: Control Group | No intervention | Participants in this group did not receive any training during the study but were provided with printed first-aid educational materials after completing the post-test. |
| Experimental: Training Group | Experimental | Participants received four sessions of first-aid training based on Kolb's Experiential Learning Model, including real-life simulations and group exercises. Receives: Behavioral: Experiential First Aid Training |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in First-Aid Knowledge Score (pre- and post-training)
First Aid Knowledge Questionnaire (self-developed; score range: 0-20; higher scores indicate better knowledge)
Measured: Baseline and immediately post-intervention
Change in First-Aid Self-Efficacy Score
Home Accidents First Aid Self-Efficacy Scale (score range: 10-50; higher scores indicate greater self-efficacy)
Measured: Baseline and immediately post-intervention
