Brief Summary:
This randomized controlled experimental study evaluates the effect of a Health Belief Model (HBM)-based web education program on preventing home accidents among mothers of children aged 0-3 years registered in a Family Health Center in Erzurum, Türkiye. Unintentional injuries such as falls, burns, poisoning, choking/aspiration, and cutting/piercing injuries are common in early childhood and often occur in the home environment. Mothers play a critical role in recognizing home hazards and implementing preventive safety behaviors.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group (HBM-based web education) or a control group (usual care). The intervention includes a structured web-based education program delivered over three months, supported by reminder messages via WhatsApp, interactive communication through an "Ask Us" option, and two Zoom meetings during the follow-up period. Outcomes will be measured using the General Self-Efficacy Scale and the Mother Home Accidents Awareness Scale. Baseline data will be collected through face-to-face interviews before the intervention, and post-test data will be collected at the 6th month. The study aims to determine whether HBM-based digital education improves maternal self-efficacy and awareness regarding home accident prevention.

Detailed Description:
This study evaluates a theory-driven digital education intervention designed to improve maternal preventive behaviors related to early childhood home safety. The intervention is grounded in the Health Belief Model (HBM), which explains preventive health actions through perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy. In the context of home accidents, the model is used to strengthen risk perception, increase motivation for adopting safety practices, reduce perceived obstacles to prevention, and enhance caregiver confidence in implementing protective behaviors.
The intervention is delivered through a structured web-based education platform tailored for mothers of young children. The content is organized into sequential modules mapped directly to HBM constructs. Educational materials are designed to support learning through multimodal delivery (written content, visuals, and videos) and to encourage practical application of safety behaviors in the home environment. In addition to asynchronous web learning, the intervention incorporates reinforcement and engagement strategies, including periodic reminder messaging and interactive communication options that allow participants to ask questions and receive feedback. Scheduled online meetings are included to support understanding, troubleshoot barriers, and promote sustained participation.
Participants are assigned to study groups using a random allocation approach. The trial uses a pre-test/post-test structure to quantify changes over time and to compare outcomes between study arms. Data analysis will follow a structured statistical plan, including descriptive summarization and group comparisons, with reliability checks for the measurement tools used in the study. Ethical approvals and institutional permissions have been obtained, and all study procedures are conducted in accordance with applicable ethical standards for research involving human participants.
