Brief summary
This research will be carried out with a randomized controlled experimental design to examine the effect of education based on the Health Belief Model for individuals with Type 2 Diabetes on their health beliefs, self-efficacy and healthy lifestyle behaviors. During the research, the relevant polyclinic will be visited regularly. The patients who are followed up in the outpatient clinic for type 2 diabetes will be evaluated in terms of sampling eligibility criteria and their willingness to participate in the research will be questioned. The patients to be included in the study will be randomly assigned to intervention and control groups using the random sampling method. In determining the sample size, two groups, intervention and control, were compared using the G\*Power v3.1.9.4 program. Effect size (d) = 0.80, type I margin of error (α) = 0.05, minimum sample volume to provide test power (1-β) = 0.90, total 68 (experimental group 34, control group 34) is sick. However, it is planned to recruit 20% more patients (41 experiment, 41 control) in order to increase the power and reliability of the research, and there may be losses in the research process. In the collection of research data; Introductory Characteristics Information Form, Diabetes Health Belief Model Scale, Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale-II will be applied.
Interventions
After the intervention, it is expected that the scores of the patients on the healthy lifestyle behaviors scale will increase.
