Clinical Trial Summary
The goal of this randomized controlled trial: is to determine the effect of " HASCV-R "
health programme on the health promoting and protective behaviours of the Turkish-Greek
Population Exchange migrant women. The main question it aims to answer are:
• Does the HASCV-R program, positively affect the health promoting and protective behaviours
of Turkish-Greek Population Exchange migrant women? The health program was given to the
migrant women in the experimental group in five sessions of 40 minutes each for five weeks.
The program was implemented to 48 migrant women. After obtaining consent from immigrant men,
Data were gathered with all participants at the available time and places. The data were
collected from the control and experimental groups at two different times, prior to the
program was implemented and 3 months after the program was implemented.
Description:
Health protection is the regulation of the environment in which the person lives both
physically and socially. Health promotion, on the other hand, is defined as achieving optimal
health, improving health by focusing on some cognitive factors and achieving optimal physical
and mental health. The good quality of life of individuals is directly related to having
health-protective and health-promoting behaviours. In the literature, there are training
programmes to improve women's health, but there are no health-promoting and health-protective
training programmes.
With the Lausanne Peace Treaty signed between Greece and Turkey in 1923, most of the Turks in
Greece and Greeks in Turkey were subjected to forced migration. Thousands of Turks who were
sent to Turkey after this agreement were settled in different parts of the country.
Akdağmadeni district of Yozgat province is among these regions. These people and subsequent
generations who experienced forced migration are called " Turkish-Greek Population Exchange
". The lifestyle, eating habits and cultures of the immigrants differ from the local people.
In the literature, there is no health programme that improves or protects the health of
immigrants. The unique value of this study is that it will be carried out with women who are
immigrants and that the programme includes health-promoting and protective behaviours.
This research was conducted in accordance with the principles of double-blind randomised
controlled pretest-posttest experimental research. In this research, the immigrant women do
not know whether they are in the experimental or control group. The statistician conducting
the research does not know which data belong to which group. In this way, blinding was done.
This study was carried out with the immigrant women living in Akdağmadeni district of Yozgat
province. Trainings and measurement tools in the HASCV-R programme was implemented in the
training centres in the neighbourhoods where immigrant women lived with the support of
Akdağmadeni Lausanne Immigrants Association. The research was conducted between 15 May 2023
and 15 November 2023.
The population of the research consists of married women registered to Akdağmadeni Lausanne
Mübadilleri Association residing in Akdağmadeni district centre where the research was
conducted. The research was carried out with 2 different groups, 1 experimental group and 1
control group. According to the power analysis performed with G Power Clinic Calc programme,
45 experimental and 45 control groups were determined for 90% power and 0.05 type error.
Considering the possibility of losses, the experimental group was increased by 10%. The study
was planned to be carried out with 50 experimental and 50 control groups, with 5 substitutes
for each group, totalling 100 married women who were immigrants. The study was conducted with
94 women, 48 experimental and 46 control groups.
