      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Education/Guidance, Randomization description: The sample members are selected by simple randomization method through the rand function of Excel software. In this way, with using the analysis ToolPak plugin, which is responsible for analyzing data using statistical techniques, using the Random Number Generation option and then placing the required parameters related to the production of a random number such as (number of variables, number of random numbers, statistical distribution, parameters The desired distribution random seed) and the selection of the discrete distribution (uniform distribution) will produce random or natural random numbers. Based on this, Excel software automatically assigns the sample members to the two groups of the research in a completely random way.</study_design>
