The participants were randomly assigned to intervention ( n = 137) or wait-list comparison groups ( n = 153) by classroom. The age of the children ranged from 46 to 71 months ( M = 58.99, SD = 6.64). The prevention program was a 5-week program that consisted of five modules, including emotional awareness, good touch-bad touch, and body safety rules. To investigate the effectiveness of the prevention program, a latent Markov analysis was conducted. A three-class solution was identified as the best model: Status-1 (self-protecting group), Status-2 (risky secret keepers), and Status-3 (risk group). Following the intervention, members of the two at-risk groups (Statuses 2 and 3) were more likely to move into the Status-1 group than were those participants who had not received the intervention (wait-list comparison). Self-protection skills were analyzed using a 2 \u00d7 2 ANOVA with repeated measures. The increase in self-protection skills was greater for participants in the intervention group than for those in the wait-list comparison group from pre-test to post-test. Two-month follow-up analysis showed that gain in knowledge and skills was maintained. This program should be considered as a potential approach to meeting the need for child sexual abuse preventive efforts in Turkish preschool curriculum.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0886260520986272","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,15]],"date-time":"2021-01-15T04:37:21Z","timestamp":1610685441000},"page":"NP10220-NP10244","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["\u201cI am Learning to Protect Myself with Mika:\u201d A Teacher-based Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Program in Turkey"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Rukiye","family":"K\u0131z\u0131ltepe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ege University, \u0130zmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Duygu","family":"Eslek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ege University, \u0130zmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0777-7595","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"T\u00fcrkan Y\u0131lmaz","family":"Irmak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ege University, \u0130zmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Duygu","family":"G\u00fcng\u00f6r","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dokuz Eyl\u00fcl University, \u0130zmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10896-005-3169-4"},{"key":"bibr2-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0145-2134(94)90013-2"},{"key":"bibr3-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/0300443941000108"},{"issue":"2","key":"bibr4-0886260520986272","first-page":"725","volume":"13","author":"\u00c7e\u00e7en-Erogul A.","year":"2013","journal-title":"Educational Sciences Theory & Practice"},{"key":"bibr5-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/10538712.2018.1477001"},{"key":"bibr6-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0145-2134(85)90027-4"},{"key":"bibr7-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chiabu.2018.08.023"},{"key":"bibr8-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/1602531"},{"key":"bibr9-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1207\/S15374424jccp2902_11"},{"key":"bibr10-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1353\/foc.0.0035"},{"key":"bibr11-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0145-2134(94)00111-7"},{"key":"bibr12-0886260520986272","first-page":"150","author":"Finkelhor D.","year":"1992","journal-title":"Prevention of child maltreatment: Developmental and ecological perspectives"},{"key":"bibr13-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0145-2134(87)90055-X"},{"key":"bibr14-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0145-2134(00)00179-4"},{"key":"bibr15-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0005-7894(88)80014-5"},{"key":"bibr16-0886260520986272","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Hazzard A.
