Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The sampling method is accessible and based on the study entry and exit criteria. In this way, after obtaining written consent from the samples, people are assigned to 2 intervention and control groups using block random allocation method and blocks of 4. Blocks are selected randomly and by placement.By using this method, it can be ensured that an equal number of participants will enter the experimental and control groups in consecutive time intervals. In order to prevent the possibility of the effect of the aroma spread in the air on the people of the studied groups, the department manager will be requested to place the studied samples in a separate room based on randomization and the same type of intervention received.
For blocks of 4, six modes are considered as follows:
1. TTCC
2. TCTC
3. TCCT
4. CCTT
5. CTCT
