In the animation group, given educational CD and pamphlet group given pamphlet for twice a week about 2 months, and in the control group, information was provided in the routine section. Before and after intervention, self efficacy of children was measured. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 16 and one way ANOVA, Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Kruskal Wallis, paired t-test, Chi-square tests and Tukey post hoc.
Results: After the intervention, the self-efficacy score of the animation group was significantly higher than the pamphlet and control group (p <0.001). In comparison, intra-group self-efficacy was significantly increased in all three groups after two months compared to baseline (p<0.001).
