Randomization description
Random allocation will be done using six Permuted Block Randomization methods. The total number of participants in this study is 90, which will be included in 3 groups of 30 people (2 intervention groups and one control group). 10 blocks of 6 will be determined and we will give each block from one to 10 numbers. Then, using the table of random numbers, 15 one-digit numbers (between 0 and 9) are selected completely randomly, and based on each of the selected numbers, a block is determined from the ten blocks (each of the randomly numbers will be corresponding to the same block number except for the number zero which corresponds to the tenth block). Eligible individuals are assigned to three groups based on the arrangement of each block from left to right.
