- The sample of this cluster randomized controlled experimental study consisted of 2nd year university students (n=116) training in Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences (FEAS) and Hasan Ferdi Turgutlu Faculty of Technology (HFTFT) from the faculties of Manisa Celal Bayar University (MCBU) between February-Semptember 2019. Among the faculties in MCBU, simple random sampling was used to draw lots, with the first lot being assigned to FEAS as the intervention group (IG), and the second lot being assigned to HFTFT as the control group (CG) . Among seven departments in FEAS and four departments in the HFTFT, simple random sampling was used to draw lots again. The Department of Econometrics from the FEAS was assigned as the IG and Mechatronics Engineering from HFTFT was assigned as the CG. The planned visual education based Health Belief Model was given.
