Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
For small studies, random numbers can be used to sort individuals into groups. Persons participating in the research will be given a code or machine number in order to use the random or random numbers table. Since the number of people we want will be selected from 80 people, so the assigned codes and numbers will be double digits. To select sample people from the table, it will randomly start from a table point in the row or column direction. Subjects are then randomly assigned to one of four study groups using the random number table and receive intervention in the same group.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
In this study, both the participant and the performer are blinded by electrical stimulation and do not know which stimulus is real and which is artificial.
