Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Adaptation of the ostomy adjustment — Pre-intervention, immediately after the intervention, 3rd month follow-up
  Adaptation of the ostomy adjustment scale, developed by Simmons et al. (2009), was adapted into Turkish by Karadağ et al. (2011). The scale consists of 23 items and includes four subscales: Acceptance, Anxiety/Concern, Social Adjustment, and Anger. It is structured as a 5-point Likert-type scale and is scored on a range from 0 to 4 (strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree, strongly disagree). The total scale score ranges between 0 and 92. Higher scores obtained from each item indicate a higher level of adjustment. BTwelve items in the scale (items 2, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, 18, and 21) contain negatively worded statements and are therefore reverse-coded. For positively coded items, responses are scored from 0 to 4, whereas for reverse-coded items, scoring is applied from 4 to 0. In the Turkish version of the scale, the overall Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated as .93.
• Psychological Well-Being — Pre-intervention, immediately after the intervention, 3rd month follow-up
  The Psychological Well-Being Scale, developed by Diener et al. (2009; 2010), was adapted into Turkish by Telef (2011; 2013). The scale is unidimensional and consists of eight items. Items of the Psychological Well-Being Scale are rated on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). All items are positively worded. Total scores range from 8 (if strongly disagree is selected for all items) to 56 (if strongly agree is selected for all items), with higher scores indicating that the individual possesses greater psychological resources and strengths. In the Turkish version of the scale, the overall Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated as .80.
• Resilience — Pre-intervention, immediately after the intervention, 3rd month follow-up
  The Resilience Scale for Adults, developed by Friborg et al. (2003), was adapted into Turkish by Basım and Çetin (2011). The scale consists of 33 items and includes six subscales: Perception of Self, Perception of Future, Structured Style, Social Competence, Family Cohesion, and Social Resources. It is a 5-point Likert-type scale presented in five response options. The scale does not have a specific cut-off score. Items numbered 1, 3, 4, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 23, 24, 25, 27, 31, and 33 are reverse-coded. For positively coded items, responses are scored from 1 to 5, whereas for reverse-coded items, scoring is applied from 5 to 1. In the Turkish version of the scale, the overall Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated as .86, while the Cronbach's alpha values for the subscales ranged between .66 and .81.
