Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Readiness Scale for Mobile Learning	Change from baseline to 4 weeks	Mobile Learning Readiness Scale will be used to determine students' readiness for mobile learning. Scale, Lin et al. and Gokcearslan et al. adapted to Turkish and its validity and reliability were made. While there are 19 items in the original version of the scale, there are 17 items in the Turkish version. Scale items; "self-efficacy (items 1-2-3-4-5-6), optimism (items 7-8-9-10-11-12-13), and self-learning (items 14-15-16-17)" are grouped. The variance rate of the scale was 76.9% and the internal consistency coefficient (Cronbach alpha) was 0.95. The reliability coefficient of the scale is 0.959. The items in the scale are 7-point Likert type; degree of agreement is scored between (1) "I strongly disagree" and (7) "I strongly agree". The lowest 17 points and the highest 119 points can be obtained from the scale. The data are evaluated over the total score.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Melbourne Decision-Making Scale I-II	Change from baseline to 4 weeks	Students' clinical decision making skills Mann et al. "Melbourne Decision-Making Scale (MKVÖ) I-II" was developed to determine the self-esteem and decision-making styles of university students in decision-making. It consists of six items and a single sub-factor, and three items are scored straight and three items are scored in the opposite direction. "Correct" answer given to scoring items is made as 2 points, "Sometimes True" answer is 1 point, "Not True" answer is given 0 points. The maximum score that can be obtained from the scale is 12. High scores indicate high self-esteem in decision making. II. Part (MCDS II): It consists of 22 items and measures decision-making styles. High scores indicate the use of the relevant decision-making style. It has four sub-factors. They are Mindful Decision Making Style (6 items), Avoidant Decision Making Style (6 items), Procrastinating Decision Making Style (5 items) and Panic Decision Making Style (5 items). This scale is answered like MKVÖ I.
General Self-Efficacy Scale	Change from baseline to 4 weeks	Students' self-efficacy levels will be evaluated with the General Self-Efficacy Scale. This scale is a measurement tool for self-assessment. The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted by Yıldırm et al. made by. In the scale, there are five reversed items and two positive statements. The score of each question varies between 1-5. An increase in the total score indicates an increase in self-efficacy belief.
