Clinical Trial Description

The Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM), according to the World Health Organization, encompasses knowledge, skills, and practices based on the beliefs and experiences of different cultures for the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and preservation of health for physical and mental ailments. Reasons for the use of CAM today include its perceived assistance in chronic, psychiatric, and end-stage diseases where conventional medicine may not provide a complete solution, patients' desire for control over their treatments, cultural compatibility and accessibility, and the simplicity of procedures, often with minimal or no invasiveness.The aim of this project is to determine the impact of HBM-based education provided to nursing students on their knowledge, attitude, and health beliefs related to CAM and medication use through a randomized controlled study. It is planned to be conducted between January 2024 and December 2024. The project will involve a total of 120 students in intervention and control groups. Data collection instruments will include a pre-test Personal Information Form, CAM Knowledge and Attitude Scale, Medication Beliefs Scale, and post-test CAM Knowledge and Attitude Scale, Medication Beliefs Scale after six weeks of education.Through this project, the importance of CAM practices for healthcare professionals, especially nursing candidates, will be emphasized. The study will explore various application areas of CAM based on cultural and belief contexts by examining commonly used CAM methods for disease treatment and health preservation. This study will serve as an important resource for assessing the knowledge and attitudes of healthcare professionals, particularly nursing candidates, regarding CAM, understanding the use of complementary practices in healthcare, and raising awareness among healthcare professionals.The popularity of CAM practices, patients' interest in complementary treatments, and the role of these treatments in healthcare underscore the importance of including CAM education in nursing curricula. Additionally, the research will demonstrate how CAM can be evaluated using the Health Belief Model (HBM) and how nursing candidates' knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs toward such practices are shaped. The results of the study may contribute significantly to evaluating the effectiveness of educational programs designed to increase nursing candidates' knowledge levels and influence their attitudes toward CAM. ;
