TY - JOUR TI - COMPARISON OF THE EFFECTS OF WEB-BASED AND FACE-TO-FACE TRAINING ON THE SELF-EFFICACY AND HEALTH LITERACY OF PATIENTS WITH HYPERTENSION: A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL TRIAL AB - This study aimed to compare the effects of web-based and face-to-face patient education on the self-efficacy and health literacy of patients with hypertension. A prospective, quasi-experimental trial was conducted in Eastern Turkey. Hypertension patients were into two groups: a web-based group (n=70) and a face-to-face group (n=66). The participants’ demographics were collected with the Descriptive Characteristics Form, and the participants’ scores on the Health Literacy Scale and the Hypertension Self-Efficacy Scale were measured before and after the training. The mean Health Literacy Scale and Hypertension Self-Efficacy Scale scores of the participants in the web training group and those in the face-to-face training group both increased in the posttests compared to the pretests (p<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups according to the type of education (p>0.05). Both web-based and face-to-face training for patients with hypertension had a positive effect on health literacy and self-efficacy levels, with no difference between the two training methods.
