For random allocation, given that there is an intervention method (consulting with the self-regulation method of Levantal) and two control and intervention groups, random allocation sequence generation software will be used to determine the allocation sequence using the quadruple block method. The four-block method is used to prevent significant imbalances in the number of participants assigned to each group. Block randomization ensures that there is no significant imbalance between groups at any time during randomization, and at certain points the number of participants in each group is equal. By using the randomization block balanced method, they will be placed in two test and control groups with blocks of four. In this way, by choosing 20 blocks out of 6 possible blocks from the quadruple combination of two test and control groups, the selection process is defined by default and the patients will be assigned to two groups respectively. 1-AABB/ 2-ABBA/ 3-BAAB/ 4-ABAB/ 5-BABA/ 6-BBAA
