As for the control group at the same times, shows an improvement of the average score from T0 to T3 (3.55 ± 0.76 to 4.34 ± 1.10), however, the T3 to the T6 there was a decrease in the average score of the same group (4.10 ± 1.18). With 95% confidence, the average effect in the Experimental group was 1.03 to 1.78 points greater than in the control group.

For GE, the contact time during the calls in the 1st cycle was 12.56 (± 4.67) minutes and in the 2nd cycle of 12.04 (± 6.31) minutes.
