The problem
Intervention: Culturally and linguistically adapted health education delivered through two community-based sessions, including presentations integrating scientific and Islamic perspectives on vaccination, interactive discussions, and culturally tailored educational materials
Who it was tested with: 106 adult participants (56% female, 57.5% aged 25–44 years) from the Uyghur Türk community in Istanbul and Konya, Türkiye.
The same group is measured before the intervention and again afterwards, with a baseline and an endline and sometimes a midline. Change is visible, but other causes cannot be ruled out.
"A total of 106 adult participants attended the sessions. The intervention included pre- and post-tests, presentations integrating scientific and Islamic perspectives on vaccination, interactive discussions, and culturally tailored educational materials." The study used a straightforward before-and-after measurement approach in a defined community population, which represents a pre-post design. Substantial improvements across multiple vaccine-related knowledge and attitude measures indicate the intervention had positive effects on the measured outcomes.
No control group to compare against; measured intentions and attitudes rather than actual vaccination behavior; self-selected sample of 106 participants may not represent the broader Uyghur community; no long-term follow-up data on whether attitude changes resulted in actual vaccination uptake.
