Full description

The universe of this study was composed of 411 nursing students studying at Mersin University's faculty of nursing.The data were collected using the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale from 384 nursing students who accepted to participate in the study between 09 January 2020 - 09 March 2020.From the scale developed by Andresan et al in 2017 and adapted to Turkish by Demirci in 2019, 110 nursing students who scored 3 or more out of at least 4 out of 6 items or scored 18 or more out of the total score constituted the sample of the study.110 nursing students were assigned to the experimental and control groups (55 experimental and 55 control groups) by block randomization.7 separate focus group sessions were held online between 01 September 2020 - 01 October 2020 with 55 student nurses in the experimental group. Using the literature and data obtained from the first stage of the study (analysis of focus group sessions), a strengthening program based on the Roy Adaptation Model was made.The necessary corrections and additions were made to the program by obtaining expert opinions from field experts regarding the program created. Empowerment program based on Roy Adaptation Model will be applied to 55 student nurses in the experimental group between 01 February 2021 - 01 May 2021 through online group sessions. The Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale, which were applied as a pre-test in the first session of the application, will be applied as a post-test in the 12th session.
