      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In order to allocate  randomly, a simple random method with a number card in a sealed envelope will be used. In this way, 56 cards (in order to have equal chances for research samples, 28 cards with number 1, for the control group and 28 cards with number 2 and for the control group) will be placed in the box. Participants are asked to remove a card from the envelope. Card number one will be placed in the intervention group and card number two will be placed in the control group. In order to create an equal chance for all samples, each card will be returned to the box after being removed.</study_design>
