Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The population of the study consists of all students newly enrolled in the Department of Midwifery, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ağrı İbrahim Çeçen University, in the 2025-2026 academic year. No sampling will be carried out; instead, all students who meet the inclusion criteria and volunteer to participate will be included in the study.
Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: the experimental group (who will receive the laughter yoga intervention) and the control group (who will not receive any intervention). Thus, the study will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental research.
The research data will be collected using the General Health Questionnaire, Student Information Form, Subjective Well-Being Scale, Psychological Well-Being Scale, and The Short Version of the Scales of General Well-Being.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Students included in the study will be randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. Students in the experimental group will participate in laughter yoga sessions conducted twice a week (Thursday and Friday) for four weeks, outside of class hours and in an indoor setting. The sessions will be carried out in subgroups of 9-10 students each, with a total of eight sessions. Students in the control group will not receive any intervention.
Data will be collected at three points: pre-test (October 2025, before the intervention), post-test (November 2025, at the end of the fourth week of the intervention), and follow-up test (December 2025, one month after the intervention).
