Brief Summary:
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of an educational intervention on the use of digital health services for elderly individuals on e-health literacy and health seeking behavior
The main questions it aims to answer are
H 0 There is no difference in terms of the total score of the e-health literacy scale
H 0 There is no difference in terms of the total score of the health seeking behavior scale
The control group will continue their routine life The researchers will conduct a 4-week intervention for the intervention group participants
Technology Use Basic Information Training MHRS and e-pulse Systems Usage Training Health literacy mobile health application usage training Counseling Applications will be made at the end of the training

The sample size was determined by Power analysis The sample was calculated as 29 elderly individuals for each group with a power of 90 with an effect size of 088 in an experimental study Xie 2011 Considering the 10 loss probability for the study group the sample was determined as 32 for each group experimental and control Before randomization elderly individuals who meet the inclusion criteria will be given general information about the study their informed consent will be obtained for participation in the study and a pre-test will be administered Then the block randomization method will be used for randomization and opaque envelopes will be given by an independent researcher to conceal the assignment
