盲法说明
In the study, there will be interventions in both groups, as metaverse-based education and activity programme will be given to the MetaHealth Group and digital health education with a mobile application materials will be given to the MobileHealth Group. In both groups, the participants will be aware that an attempt has been made on them, but since they will not know which group they are in, the participant will be blinded. Since the interventions will be managed by the research team, researcher blinding will not be possible. However, the statistician will be blinded. At the end of the research, the groups will be coded as "A" and "B". Statistical analysis will be made by the statistics expert who is blinded to the groups in the project partner company. After the statistical analysis are made and the research report is written, the situations expressed by A and B will be explained to the statistician. In this way, it is planned to control the bias in statistics and reporting.
