Summary

This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effect of motivational interviewing on menopause myths and posttraumatic growth in postmenopausal women.

BEHAVIORAL

Motivational interviewing

The researcher provided training on motivational interviewing techniques to be applied to the experimental group prior to the intervention. Women will be informed about the research, and those wishing to participate will be given a voluntary information form to read, and their verbal and written consent will be obtained. The client will be informed about the duration, number, and timing of the interviews before the start of the MG sessions. Each motivational interview session with the women in the experimental group is planned to last approximately 30-45 minutes. A total of four MG sessions will be conducted with the women in the experimental group, once a week. All sessions will be conducted by inviting the women to their family physician's office. During the MG sessions, counseling will be provided on topics related to the menopausal period in order to change the women's negative beliefs about menopause myths and to increase their post-traumatic growth levels after menopause.
