What this trial studies

This interventional study investigates whether a flipped-learning education approach can influence labor pain perception and anxiety in pregnant women. Participants access digital materials before in-person sessions, then engage in active learning to understand pain mechanisms and coping strategies. The goal is to improve pain experience during labor by addressing cognitive patterns like catastrophizing. The program emphasizes neurobiological aspects of labor pain and practical coping skills. Locations are at Bilecik Seyh Edebali University and affiliated sites in Bilecik, Turkey.
