About this study

Aim of the research: In addition to traditional education methods, it is important to try different methods to increase interest, attitude and motivation in accordance with the requirements of the age. Our study was carried out to examine the attitudes of nursing students towards the course in line with the principle of attractiveness in education. In addition, the attitudes of the students were determined through deep mock videos. Method of the study: The research is planned to be conducted between March 2023 and June 2023. The population of the research consists of 4th year students of the Department of Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, Muş Alparslan University. In the research, the experimental and control groups were determined by randomisation. The sample of the study consisted of all volunteer students. The experimental group consisted of n:40 participants and the control group consisted of n:40 participants. In order to ensure homogeneity in the study, it was paid attention that different branches were in the same class. In order to ensure consistency between the observers, it was carried out in a course conducted by the same instructor.

The study was conducted in accordance with the CONSORT diagram. Data collection was carried out online. Participants answered questions about sociodemographic characteristics and scale items. It took approximately 15 minutes for the participants to answer the questions. The posttest was administered to the control group without any intervention. The experimental group was trained and monitored with deep mock videos every week. The data were evaluated using IBM SPSS Statistics 23 programme.

Data collection tools used in the study:

Data Collection Tools

  1. Introductory information form: It consists of questions regarding the demographic characteristics of the students.
  2. Instructional Material Motivation Scale (TMMÖ) Developed by Keller (2010) and adapted into Turkish by Dinçer et al. (2016), the Instructional Material Motivation Scale (TMMÖ) was developed to measure the effect of teaching materials on students' motivation. The original language of the scale is English. In Keller's original PMS scale, some of the items were designed as positive and some as negative. Accordingly, items 3, 7, 12, 15, 19, 22, 26, 29, 31 and 34 of the scale (10 items in total) are negative; Other items are positive. ÖMMÖ scale is a Likert-type scale consisting of 36 items. Each item on the scale will be scored by students from 1 (Not True) to 5 (Very True). Accordingly, the lowest score on the scale is 36 and the highest score is 180. In the reliability analysis, the reliability coefficient (Cronbach Alpha value) was found to be 0.92.
  3. Course Interest Scale: Student interest; The Course Interest Scale, developed by , in order to evaluate its relationship with variables such as learning motivation, effective learning, and course participation level, is a 5-point Likert-type measurement tool consisting of 16 items and two sub-dimensions (affective and cognitive interest). The study was adapted by Akın et al. (2015). ("1" Strongly Disagree, "2" Disagree, "3" Neutral, "4" Agree, "5" Completely Agree). There are no reverse coded items in the scale. The highest and lowest scores that can be obtained from the scale are 45 and 9, respectively, for the affective interest sub-dimension; 35 and 7 for the cognitive interest sub-dimension. As a result of the analyses, a two-dimensional structure was obtained with factor loadings ranging between .73 and .90. The affective interest sub-dimension of the scale consists of 9 items and the cognitive interest sub-dimension consists of 7 items. Cronbach's alpha internal consistency reliability coefficients of the scale were found to be .95 for the affective interest sub-dimension and .88 for the cognitive interest sub-dimension.
  4. Attitude Scale towards Learning: The scale developed by Çetin et al. was developed to determine the attitudes of students. As a result of all validity and reliability analyses, ÖYTÖ contains a total of 34 items. Of these scale items, 25 are positive and 9 are negative. The scale, which is graded in a five-point Likert style, is "Totally Agree", "To a Great extent", "Partly Agree", "I Disagree", "Totally Disagree". The highest attitude score that can be obtained from the scale is 170 and the lowest attitude score is 34. The 9 negative items in the scale are reverse scored. The Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficient of the scale was found to be 0.94 for the overall scale.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • deepfake videoBehavioural

    The combination of the words deep and fake is called deepfake in the literature as deep learning. Deepfakes, which have recently become more widely known as a result of the shocking images and sound recordings of many people, from politicians to famous movie stars, are generally hyperrealistic videos in which people's faces and voices are used by other faces and voices without permission and manipulated digitally. Deepfakes rely on neural networks that analyze large data samples to learn to mimic a person's facial expressions, mannerisms, voice and tone. The process involves feeding a deep learning algorithm to exchange images of two people or faces.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Teaching Material Motivation Scale

    Teaching Material Motivation Scale Teaching Material Motivation Instructional Material Motivation Scale: It was developed to measure the effect of instructional materials on students' motivation. The scale is a 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 36 items. Each item in the scale will be scored from 1 (Not True) to 5 (Very True) by the students. Accordingly, the lowest score on the scale is 36, and the highest score is 180. An increase in the score on the scale indicates an increase in motivation.

    Measured: Evaluated at the end of 6 weeks.

  2. Course Interest Scale

    Student Interest Scale; Developed by (Mazer, 2013) in order to evaluate its relationship with variables such as learning motivation, effective learning, and level of participation in the lesson, the Class Interest Scale is a 5-point Likert-type measurement tool consisting of 16 items and two sub-dimensions (affective and cognitive interest). et al (2015) ("1" Strongly disagree, "2" Disagree, "3" Undecided, "4" Agree, "5" Totally Agree). There is no reverse coded item in the scale. Affective interest sub-dimension of the scale consists of 9 items and cognitive interest sub-dimension consists of 7 items. As the scale score increases, the interest increases.

    Measured: Evaluated at the end of 6 weeks

  3. Attitude Scale Towards Learning

    Attitude Scale Towards Learning:Attitude Scale Towards Learning: The scale developed by Çetin et al. was developed to determine students' attitudes. As a result of all validity and reliability analyzes, there are 34 items in total. Of these scale items, 25 are positive and 9 are negative. The five-point Likert scale is "Totally Agree", "Strongly Agree", "Partly Agree", "Disagree", "Strongly Disagree". The highest attitude score that can be obtained from the scale is 170 and the lowest attitude score is 34. As the attitude score increases, the positive attitude increases.
