For data collection by interview a questionnaire consisting of 59 questions arranged in 5 sections including the demographic HBM model parts (perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers) and also cues of action foot care at home (self-reporting) and the checklist section was used. Realibility and validity of this questionnaire was confirmed before the study. Educational interventions based on HBM model were implemented in three 60 minute-sessions after completion of questionnaires and the data was again collected after one month. Results

After intervention, however, the results demonstrated that knowledge, perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, action and checklist mean grades in type 2 diabetic patients increased significantly in the case group.
