Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Design: The study is a randomized controlled experimental research. Method: The population of the research consists of 110 nurses working in a public hospital. Power analysis was performed with G\* Power software to determine the number of nurses constituting the research sample. The sample size was determined as 25 people in each group. Considering that there may be data loss in the study, it is planned to include 30 people in the intervention group and 30 people in the control group. Nurses who volunteer to participate in the study and fill out the pre-test will be randomly assigned to the groups using the Statistical Analysis Software program to ensure random distribution to the intervention and control groups. Personal Information Form, Mental Health Literacy Scale (MHLS) and Opening Minds Stigma Scale for Healthcare Providers (OMS-HC) will be used in study data collection.
Hypotheses:
H1: The mental health literacy level of nurses who receive training with virtual reality is higher than nurses who receive classical training.
H2: The level of stigmatization towards mental illnesses of nurses trained with virtual reality is lower than nurses who received classical training.
