Primary purpose: OTHER

Brief summary: The aim of this clinical study is to determine the effect of scenario-based training of nursing students on awareness of osteoporosis.

To this end, the most important questions to be answered in the study are

* What is the level of osteoporosis awareness among nursing students at the start of the study?
* Does scenario-based education have an impact on osteoporosis awareness?

Participants:

All student nurses participating in the study will first receive theoretical training on osteoporosis. At the end of the training, a scenario example prepared by the researchers on the topic of osteoporosis is worked on with the students in the experimental group. No additional intervention is carried out with the control group.

Detailed description: In this study, 78 nursing students randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups are first interviewed using the personal information questionnaire and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale. This is followed by a four-hour theoretical lesson prepared by the researchers in accordance with current literature and textbooks on osteoporosis as part of the Joint and Connective Tissue Diseases and Nursing course. At the end of the theoretical lessons, a scenario example prepared by the researchers, again using current literature and case presentations, will be worked on with the students in the experimental group. No other application is made for the control group. The Personal Information Questionnaire and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale will be re-administered to both groups four weeks after the end of the theoretical lesson.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* 18 years of age and above,
* Mersin University Faculty of Nursing 2nd year students,
* Have not received any other training on osteoporosis before,
* Willing to participate in the research,
* Have cognitive competence to fill out the data collection form,
* Those who sign the Informed Voluntary Consent Form will be included.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Those under the age of 18,
* Not a 2nd year student at Mersin University Faculty of Nursing,
* Have previously received different training on osteoporosis,
* Do not want to participate in the research,
* Do not have the cognitive ability to fill out the data collection form,
* Those who do not sign the Informed Consent Form will not be included.
