Declarations
:
: It should be noted that due to the lack of an institutional ethics board to approve the studies, it was not possible to apply for Research Ethics Board (REB) approval. There are no institutional ethics boards for approval of participation in the countries where the study was conducted. This academic restriction resulted in an exemption from the requirement for ethical approval for the study. In this study, information was collected through online and paper questionnaires and then processed anonymously. The respondents did not leave any confidential information to the study authors. All respondents who answered the questionnaire gave informed consent that their answers would be used to conduct and publish the study. Respondents under the age of 18 did not participate in the study.
: The authors declare no competing interests.
