Therefore, appropriate health promotion programs specific to elderly individuals need to be developed. Educational intervention is known to be effective in achieving behavioral change. This study differs from previous studies in that both peer (Intervention-1) and nurse-led (Intervention-2)-led education programs are planned as interventions. This research was designed as a mixed method study to compare the effects of Peer and Nurse Led Health Protection and Promotion Training Programs Based on Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) on the health behaviors of older people. The research will be carried out in two stages. The first phase was planned as a parallel two-arm non-randomized experimental study. This phase is planned to be carried out between November 2024 and January 2025 in two separate elderly homes in Muratpasa district of Antalya province, where older people are concentrated. The sample size was calculated as 108 older people (Intervention-1: 54, Intervention-2: 54). Intervention will be implemented for 12 weeks with the Health Protection and Promotion Training Program Based on SCT under peer leadership in the Intervention-1 group, and the same interventions will be carried out in the Intervention-2 group under the leadership of a nurse. Primary results of the research; health protection and promotion behavior practice, health promotion behavior practice level, self-efficacy belief and health seeking behavior. Secondary measurement results are; It is an assessment of blood pressure, blood sugar, body mass index and cardiovascular disease risk. Results will be measured before and 12 weeks after the intervention with the Health Protection and Promotion Behavior Checklist, Elderly Health Promotion Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Health Seeking Behavior Scale. In the second stage, it was planned to conduct two qualitative phenomenological design studies. In the first qualitative study, the investigators aimed to deeply understand the views of older people who received peer leader intervention and nurse intervention; In the second qualitative study, it was aimed to understand in depth the experiences of the older people as peer leaders in the health protection and promotion training program based on SCT.
