Summary

The adolescent's search for self-discovery and identity in physical, psychosocial, cognitive and emotional areas may become more complex with epilepsy disease management. The adolescent's burden of treatment compliance may lead to poor adherence to the disease and worsen short- and long-term health outcomes. Disease self-management in epilepsy represents the processes required for disease knowledge, seizure control, medication adherence, increasing social support and quality of life, and reducing the negative effects of the disease. Educational training implemented in this period have an effect that increases motivation to gain skills to adapt to the disease. This model argues that knowledge is a basis for behaviour change, but it is not sufficient alone. However, it is argued that people will have the necessary behavioural skills when they are well informed and motivated for effective action. It is aimed to find a statistically significant difference from the scales (Epilepsy Knowledge Test for Adolescents, Seizure Self-Efficacy Status Scale in Children with Epilepsy, Multidimensional Perceived Level of Social Support Scale, Child's Attitude Towards His/her Disease Scale) at the end of the training of adolescents who received an 8-week training program.

Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills Model

1.-2.Meeting:Regarding the information component of the IMB model; Answers given by the adolescents to the epilepsy knowledge test, the topics on which the adolescent wants to get information will be agreed with the adolescent and an education training will be created.3.,4.,5.-6. Meeting:Personal motivation, which is the first step of the motivation component; A meeting will be held regarding the obstacles to the disease, attitudes and behaviors towards the disease. In order to strengthen social support systems, a one-session seizure management training will be planned with a person chosen by the adolescent from his parent or friend group.7-8. Meeting:Seizure self-efficacy and treatment compliance will be evaluated in the behavioral skills component. During training, achievable goals will be set to ask the adolescent to provide personal feedback, ask open-ended questions, engage in reflective listening, and increase personal and social motivation to comply with medical recommendations
