Can gamification make sexual health education more effective?
NCT ID NCT07516340
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a gamification-based peer education program can improve sexual health literacy and attitudes among nursing students. About 94 third-year students will be randomly assigned to either the game-based program or no intervention. Researchers will measure changes in knowledge and attitudes one month later. The goal is to see if this engaging approach works better than traditional methods.
