Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Married women who are inclined to undergo induced abortion are trained by the researcher in order to make the right decision to continue the pregnancy, in a virtual way (through the educational hotline) and based on the content set based on the constructs of the health belief model. Before providing training, their intention to perform induced abortion is asked through questionnaires prepared in this field. The duration of training in the intervention group is estimated to be 1 to 1 and a half hours. It should be noted that if the intervention group asked for more description of the training or the researcher thought that they needed more explanation to better understand the content, the training packages will be prepared based on the results of the expert panel and will be available on Itai channel. Researchers are also trained.In these educational packages, in addition to the content (complications of abortion and the benefits of continued pregnancy), images and videos related to the complications of induced abortions are also shown, while the research samples can have questions and answers with the researcher. The control group only receives the complications of abortion in the form of a prepared pamphlet for the purpose of increasing knowledge. 1 week after the training (due to the possibility of immediate decision of the mothers to have an abortion), the researcher will contact both groups and complete the mentioned questionnaires again.Questionnaires will be completed once before the intervention and again 1 week after the training (according to the possibility of immediate decision of mothers to have an abortion). Due to the completion of the questionnaires by the researcher, we can be sure that the questionnaires will be completed completely. Also, through the presentation of gifts that will be delivered by comprehensive health service centers, the participation of people will be attracted to complete the questionnaires.
