Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Cultural Marginality Theory-Based Education program will be held in a face-to-face classroom environment for the students in the experimental group. This training program has been developed based on the concepts of Cultural Marginality Theory. The content and topics of the sessions in the program are arranged according to the conceptual structure and flow of the theory.
