研究概览
简要总结
The research employs a pre-test post-test control group design with a randomized controlled semi-experimental approach to determine the impact of education provided for coping with premenstrual syndrome and Mandala activity on premenstrual symptoms.
Research Hypotheses:
H01: Mandala activity is not effective in reducing premenstrual symptoms.
H02: Education provided for coping with premenstrual syndrome is not effective in reducing premenstrual symptoms.
H13: Mandala activity is effective in reducing premenstrual symptoms.
H14: Education provided for coping with premenstrual syndrome is effective in reducing premenstrual symptoms.
H15: Mandala activity is more effective than education provided for coping with premenstrual syndrome in reducing premenstrual symptoms among students with PMS.
Research Groups: Mandala Group, Coping with Premenstrual Symptoms Education Group, and Control Group.
详细描述
In the conducted international and national literature review, it was observed that various methods are utilized in the management of PMS. Still, no study directly examining the effectiveness of Mandala activity on PMS was found. The literature results provided under the title of Mandala indicate that the activities are predominantly focused on behavioral and psychological conditions. Considering the symptoms of PMS, it is assumed that Mandala activity may have an impact on the behavioral and psychological symptoms of PMS. The assumption of how it might affect the physical symptoms of PMS is also supported by studies indicating that art itself has a therapeutic quality and that the creative process helps individuals develop positive coping methods for the physical discomfort they experience.
The research is planned as a pre-test post-test control group design with a randomized controlled semi-experimental approach, aiming to determine the impact of education on coping with premenstrual syndrome and Mandala activity on premenstrual symptoms
Research Hypotheses:
H01: Mandala activity is not effective in reducing premenstrual symptoms.
H02: Education provided for coping with premenstrual syndrome is not effective in reducing premenstrual symptoms.
