Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Cyber Sexual Violence Scale

  The scale assessing sexual violence experienced online consists of 18 items. The scale is a five-point Likert type (always = 5, often = 4, sometimes = 3, rarely = 2, never = 1). The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 18 and the highest score is 90. The scale consists of two subscales: "Unwanted sexual texts" and "Unwanted sexual desire". In the Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale, Cronbach Alpha value was found to be 0.94 for the total score of the scale, 0.94 for the Sexual texts sub-dimension and 0.90 for the Unwanted sexual desire sub-dimension.

• Sensitivity Scale on Cyberbullying Young Adult Form

  The scale is scored on a three-point scale as No (1), Sometimes (2), Yes (3). The scale is one-dimensional and gives scores between 7 and 21. A high score indicates high sensitivity. Since the scale has not been normed, there is no cut-off score. Cronbach's alpha coefficients were calculated for both versions to see how reducing the number of scales affected the internal consistency of the scale. "While the alpha value for the 13-item version was .87, the value for the seven-item version was 0.83, and it was found that there was a minimal decrease in internal consistency after reducing it to six items."

• Ensuring Personal Cyber Security Scale

  The scale consists of 5 factors and 25 items. These factors are named as "protecting personal privacy" (10 items), "avoiding the untrustworthy" (4 items), "taking precautions" (5 items), "protecting payment information" (2 items) and "leaving no trace" (4 items). . The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of the 5-point Likert type scale was calculated as 0.735. The reliability coefficients for the sub-dimensions are "protecting personal privacy" 0.763, "avoiding the untrustworthy" 0.771, "taking precautions" 0.704, "protecting payment information" 0.829 and "leaving no trace" 0.557.

Classroom Teaching University Students Intervention Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

A special username and password will be given to the intervention group, which is randomly assigned to the female students of the classroom teaching department, to log in to the website, and they will be given a special access to the website. Afterwards, training on cyber sexual violence will be given within the scope of the literature. The scales will be applied to the students again after 12 weeks in order to see the effect of the behavior.

Behavioral: Classroom Teaching University Students Intervention Group

Kindergarten Teaching University Students Control Group

NO INTERVENTION
