Providing Toilet Training Awareness Program to Mothers

Toilet training has an important place among the developmental stages. A healthy child\'s ability to go to the toilet on his/her own is acquired between the ages of 1-3. Those who implement, show and guide toilet training have great responsibilities in ensuring that the period is healthy. Problems experienced during the education period can cause some negative situations, behaviors and undesirable personality traits in the child. The research will be conducted as an RCT in Muş Province, Family Health Center No. 01, between May 2024 and December 2025 in order to examine the effect of the toilet training awareness program applied to the participants on their knowledge and attitudes. The universe of the research will consist of participants who have not started 12-18 months of toilet training between May 2024 and May 2025. The entire universe will be examined in the research without using the sampling method. If the expected number cannot be reached between the specified dates and the relevant ASM, the data collection date will be extended. In the study, the Toilet Training Knowledge and Attitude Scale, the Motherhood Role Scale and the Parental Attitude Scale will be used to investigate the relationship between them. Children aged 12-18 months will be determined from the relevant ASM records. Phone numbers will be taken from the records, participants will be called and informed about the research and their verbal consent will be obtained. Participants who want to participate will be given an appointment and asked to come to ASM. Data will be obtained in the form of face-to-face interviews and questions and answers. Ethical principles will be followed.
