Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if a time management training program can effectively reduce procrastination behavior among intern nursing students. It will also explore the impact of this training on students' academic performance and well-being. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the training reduce procrastination behavior in nursing students? How does the training impact time management skills and academic outcomes? Researchers will implement a time management training program based on the Effective Teaching Model to analyze changes in procrastination behavior. Participants will: Attend a five-day training program, with daily sessions covering specific topics on time management and procrastination Complete a pre-test and post-test to measure changes in procrastination behavior Provide feedback on the training program and engage in practical workshops The study will be conducted at a private university in Istanbul over a four-month period from November 2024 to March 2025, targeting all intern nursing students (N=70). Data will be collected using a general procrastination scale and analyzed for significant changes in time management and procrastination behaviors using SPSS software.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Improvement in Time Management Skills

  This outcome measure will evaluate the effectiveness of the "Time Management and Procrastination Behavior Management Training" on participants' time management skills. Participants will complete a standardized questionnaire assessing their self-reported time management abilities before and after the training to identify any significant changes. Student Information Form: This form consists of 8 questions regarding the socio-demographic information of immigrant students, including their country of origin, health status, and the healthcare institutions they have accessed. General Procrastination Scale: The General Procrastination Scale, developed by Çakıcı (2003), measures students' tendencies to procrastinate. The scale consists of 18 items rated on a 5-point Likert-type scale, and includes two subscales: "Procrastination" (items 2, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18) and "Time Management" (items 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 17). Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient was determined to be 0.81

  Pre-test conducted one week prior to the training and post-test conducted immediately after the final training session.
