NCT03924141

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate one of the chapters in the new national Norwegian training manual (MAP). The chapter that is selected to be evaluated is the chapter on de-escalation. Effective training in this topic should not only lead to changes in the level of knowledge and attitudes, but also changes in behavior and skills. Experiencing better preparedness does not necessarily entail a change in behavior. This study wants to test whether training in de-escalation changes the participants' skills and experience of self-confidence, security and coping in threatening situations.
