Objective: This research was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a psychoeducation program given to international nursing students
receiving education in the nursing department of a public university to improve their healthy lifestyle behaviors and life satisfaction.
Methods: The research was designed based on the single-group pretest-posttest model. The research sample consisted of 68 international
students enrolled in the university’s nursing department in the 2016-2017 academic year. Data were collected using the introduction form,
Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale, and Life Satisfaction Scale. Pre-education and post-education scores were compared using the dependent
t-test.
Results: The total Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale score and subscale scores significantly increased after the program (p≤0.001). The score
obtained from the Life Satisfaction Scale was 20.1±4.6 before the program and 25.9±3.9 after the program, and this increase was statistically
significant (p≤0.001).
Conclusion: The psychoeducation program given to international students effectively ensures that students gain healthy lifestyle behaviors,
positively affecting life satisfaction.
