A total of 103 articles were included in the sample. In the second step, the findings from these articles were aligned with the elements of the model proposed by Abdivarmazan et al. (2018, 2019). The third step involved creating educational content that encompassed the extracted themes as well as the elements of the aforementioned model. The fourth step included assessing the validity of the educational content with the help of 28 experts in relevant fields. Finally, in the fifth step, the educational content was re-evaluated through interviews with six experts in education and social psychology.
