This study aims to find out how experiential learning-based first aid training affects the knowledge and self-sufficiency of parents who have children with intellectual disabilities.

Who Can Participate:

Parents of children with intellectual disabilities are invited to take part in this study.

What Happens During the Study:

Participants will attend a first aid training program based on experiential learning. Their knowledge and ability to care for their children will be measured before and after the training.

Risks and Benefits:

There are no significant risks involved. Parents may benefit by gaining important first aid skills, which can help them better protect and support their children.

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.

No Intervention: Control GroupNo interventionParticipants 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 GroupExperimentalParticipants 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.

  1. 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

  2. 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
