Figure 1

Changes in EOB operation skills scores over time for the experimental and control groups. Box plots show median (horizontal line), mean (diamond), interquartile range (box), and range (whiskers) with individual data points. ***p < 0.001 for between-group comparisons at post-intervention and follow-up.

Figure 2

Changes in self-efficacy scores over time for the experimental and control groups. ***p < 0.001 for between-group comparisons at post-intervention and follow-up.

Figure 3

Comparison of satisfaction scores between the experimental and control groups at post-intervention. ***p < 0.001.

Note: Higher scores indicate greater satisfaction. Diamond shapes indicate mean values.
