This randomized controlled trial study aims to examine the flipped classroom model's effects on the knowledge and health beliefs of testicular cancer and testicular self-examination. The study was conducted on 66 students in Northern Cyprus. A descriptive information form, Champion's Health Belief Model Scale, visual analogue scale of satisfaction with the learning method, the knowledge questionnaire on testicular cancer and the testicular self-examination itself were used for data collection. The mean posttest knowledge score of the intervention group (14.44) was higher than the mean posttest knowledge score of the control group (12.65). The difference between groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The mean posttest scores obtained by the intervention group from the barriers and the severity subscales of the Champion's Health Belief Model Scale were lower than for the control group (P < 0.05). The percentages of participants performing the testicular self-examination after receiving training were 82.4% and 59.4% for the intervention group and control group, respectively. The complete trial protocol can be accessed at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04851197). Since the flipped classroom model increased the rate of students performing testicular self-exams and the levels of knowledge and satisfaction of the students, the use of this model in different courses may be promoted.

翻转课堂模式对睾丸癌知识、行为和健康信念及自我检查的影响：一项随机对照试验研究。

本随机对照试验研究旨在探讨翻转课堂模式对睾丸癌及睾丸自查知识和健康信念的影响。该研究针对北塞浦路斯的 66 名学生进行。采用描述性信息表、冠军健康信念模型量表、学习方法满意度视觉模拟量表、睾丸癌知识调查问卷和睾丸自查本身进行数据收集。干预组的平均后测知识得分（14.44）高于对照组的平均后测知识得分（12.65）。组间差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）。干预组从冠军健康信念模型量表的障碍和严重程度分量表中获得的平均后测分数低于对照组（P < 0.05）。干预组和对照组接受培训后进行睾丸自查的比例分别为82.4%和59.4%。完整的试验方案可在 ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04851197) 上获取。由于翻转课堂模式提高了学生睾丸自检率，提高了学生的知识水平和满意度，因此可以在不同课程中推广该模式的使用。
