Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of technology-based motivation education prepared according to the health belief model on obesity-related beliefs and attitudes, nutrition-exercise behaviors, self-efficacy and weight management in obese university students.
Detailed Description:
It is stated that the university period is risky in terms of acquiring negative health behaviors that may cause overweight and obesity. In addition, it is emphasized that the transition from overweight to obesity usually occurs between the ages of 18-29. There are non-formal education programs on obesity management for adolescence and adulthood. It is noteworthy that young people in the university period are not adequately represented in the current education programs, and at the same time, education programs specific to young people are limited. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of technology-based motivation education prepared according to the health belief model on obesity-related beliefs and attitudes, nutrition-exercise behaviors, self-efficacy and weight management in obese university students. This quasi-experimental pretest-posttest randomized controlled study will be carried out at Sivas Cumhuriyet University Suşehri Health College and Suşehri Timur Karabal Vocational School between February 1, 2022 and September 15, 2022. The sample of the study will consist of 84 students (experimental group n= 42 and control group n=42). A web-based technology based motivation program including motivational interviewing will be applied to the students in the experimental group. The control group will only receive web-based education on obesity. Data will be collected using Personal Information Form, Obesity Health Belief Model Scale, Nutrition-Exercise Behavior Scale, Self-Efficacy-Efficacy Scale and Website Usability Scale. physical measurements; A digital height-weight meter will be used for BMI measurement, and a tape measure will be used for waist and hip circumference. Whether the data is normal or not will be determined by Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Shapiro Wilk tests. In order to determine whether there is a difference in the research, necessary parametric and nonparametric tests will be used depending on whether the assumptions are met or any or all of the assumptions are not met.
