Summary

This research will be conducted using a parallel randomized controlled trial design to investigate the effects of a nursing education program grounded in Travelbe's Human-to-Human Relationship theory on willingness to work with elderly individuals, empathy levels, and communication skills. The sample group will consist of third-year nursing students at a state university (intervention: 24; control: 24). The Willingness to Work with Elderly Individuals Scale, the Kiersma-Chen Empathy Scale, and the Communication Skills Scale will be used to collect data. The intervention group will receive a six-session nursing education program based on Travelbe's Human-to-Human Relationship theory. A repeated-measures ANOVA will be used to compare the mean scores across groups on the scales. In addition, independent-samples t-tests will be used for pre-test and post-test comparisons within groups, and Cohen's d and eta-squared will be used to estimate effect sizes. The data will be examined for normality. Parametric tests (One-sample t-test, ANOVA) will be applied to data that show normal distribution, and nonparametric tests (Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Wilcoxon test, Friedman test) will be applied to data that do not show normal distribution.
