Randomization description
The study subjects will be assigned to each of the control and intervention groups by random block method using blocks 4 and 6 and will be divided into two groups with a ratio of 1:1. Thus, the number of 10 blocks of 6 and 16 blocks of 4 will be randomly extracted using WIN PEPI software. In each of the blocks of 6, 3 people will be related to the control group and 3 people will be related to the intervention group, also in each of the blocks of 4 people, 2 people will be related to the control group and 2 people will be related to the intervention group. The placement order of each person is random. In order to hide the allocation, the type of intervention will be written on paper and placed inside opaque envelopes numbered consecutively, in this way, the researcher and the participant will not know the type of intervention until the intervention begins. Due to the nature of this study, it will not be possible to blind the researcher and the participant.
