It provides individuals with motivation in this area such as informing and taking responsibility in the field of mental health, directing their behavior, facilitating access to and obtaining information, understanding, evaluating, using, and maintaining information.

The data will be collected through the Mental Health Literacy Scale for Children and Adolescents (MHLS), Attitude Scale for Seeking Psychological Help-Short Form (ASPH-S), Self-Stigma in Seeking Psychological Help Scale (SSSPHS) and the sociodemographic Question Form.
The project will be carried out with the students of a secondary school and a high school in the district of Balçova, İzmir province. Sampling calculation Based on the analysis of variance in repeated measurements in 2 groups in the G Power program, Type1 Error 0.05 (alpha 5%) Type2 Error 0.20 (80% power), the sample size calculated in duplicate measurements with medium effect size is 43 participants for each group (Intervention-Control) calculated. Considering that there might be losses during data collection, it is planned to include 50 students for the intervention group and 50 students for the control group. Analysis of variance will be used in the evaluation of data, number, percentage, and descriptive statistics, and in repeated measures to evaluate the effect of the intervention The training modules to be prepared within the scope of the project will focus on the mental health literacy level of the child, attitudes to seek help and stigmatization.

Teaching materials and learning management systems will be designed in accordance with mobile technologies and access will be provided from smartphones, tablet computers, and similar mobile devices. During the teaching material development phase, firstly, educational content drafts (storyboards) will be created and presented to field experts, and their opinions on content, teaching approach, methods and techniques, and visual design principles will be taken. Pilot studies will be conducted to understand the educational content during the improvement phase of the developed teaching material designs. It is planned to finalize the training content in light of user feedback.
