Summary

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of laughter yoga on well-being and psychological adjustment in first-year midwifery students and to evaluate its potential contributions in the context of adaptation to the educational process. The research is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study will be conducted at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Ağrı İbrahim Çeçen University.

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.
