Study Design

• Study Type: interventional
• Phase: not applicable
• Allocation: RANDOMIZED
• Masking: SINGLE
• Who Masked: PARTICIPANT
• Masking Details: Randomization was performed by one member of the research team who generated a blocked random number sequence, using EpiInfo version 7.0.9.7, and prepared the sealed opaque sequentially numbered envelopes (1-255) with the corresponding condition written inside. After each student agreed to participate in the study, the enve- lope was opened, determining the group to which he or she would be assigned. Students were unaware of the group assignments and randomization scheme.
