Bivariate data analysis used paired t-test, paired t-test (independent t-test), and Mann-Whitney test.

The results of the analysis also showed that there were differences in depression scores in the intervention group and the control group, because the value of p value in the first posttest score, the second posttest score, and the posttest mean score was 0.001 <0.05.
