简要总结
Objectives: This research was planned to examine the effect of cognitive behavioral therapy on the post-traumatic stress symptoms of nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Design: Single-blinded study with parallel groups. Setting: Faculty of Nursing. Participants: 60 first-year students studying at the Faculty of Nursing were randomly assigned to the intervention (n=30) and control (n=30) groups.
Method: Data were collected using the Information Form prepared by the researcher and the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5. The intervention group was collected online three times, before the cognitive behavioral group therapy, at the end of the therapy and three months later. Group intervention program based on cognitive behavioral approach of ten sessions; face-to-face, the intervention group was divided into two separate groups and each group was completed in approximately one and a half months (May-June 2022), two days a week.

盲法说明
In the study, data collection, statistics and reporting were blinded. The collection of research data and data entry (pre-tests and post-tests and transferring the data to the computer) were carried out by an instructor other than the researcher, who was unaware of the intervention and control groups. Data entries were entered with "A" and "B" codes without specifying the intervention or control group. The analysis of the data and the writing of the research report were coded as "A" and "B" groups. After the statistical analysis was made and the research report was written, the coding for the intervention and control groups was explained to the researcher by the coder.

结局指标
主要结局
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5)
时间窗: First assessment will be made at the baseline (pre-intervention)
Using the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for the DSM-5, symptoms of post-traumatic stress are assessed. Scores ranging from 0 to 80 points are obtained in the scale. In the interpretation of the results of the scale, it gives information about the level of symptoms by calculating the total symptom score together with the sum of the scores of the symptoms in each item, and it is recommended to use 28 as the cut-off point, although it varies according to the purpose of use (Blevins et al., 2015).
次要结局
- Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5)(Third assessment will take place average 12 weeks after the second assessment.)
