The Conflict Resolution Pyschoeducation Programme consisted of 8 sessions. It was applied throughout 8 weeks including 8 sessions, each lasting 40 minutes. No studies were led with the control group. In the study, "Attitudes toward Violence Inventory" which was developed by Blevins (2001) and adapted to Turkish by Balkis, Duru and Bulus (2005) was used as data collecting tool.
