    (MARMARA UNIV, INST HEALTH SCIENCES, 2020-05-02) GÜR, KAMER; Erol, Saime; Gur, Kamer; Hellac, Feyza; Canbay, Tugba
    Objective: This study investigated the frequency of the psychological abuse of older people in nursing homes and contributing factors. Methods: The population for this methodological and descriptive study was 161 elderly individuals living in two nursing homes in Istanbul. The data were collected using Barthel's Index, the Standardized Mini Mental Test (SMMT) and the Elders' Psychological Abuse Scale (EPAS). The scale's reliability was tested using the Kuder-Richardson Formula 20 (KR-20) and test-retest analysis. Its validity was tested using the Content Validity Index (CVI) and concurrent validity. The frequency of abuse is presented using numbers, percentages, and means. The relationship between the independent variables and abuse was evaluated using the t-test and Kruskal-Wallis variance analysis. Results: The participants' mean age was 73.5 years (42.2% were older than 80 years); 44.7% were female. The mean scores were 5.57 +/- 4.12 on the EPAS and 89.13 +/- 17.13 on Barthel's Index. The KR-20 reliability coefficient for the scale was 0.80. The test-retest reliability was 0.97; p=0.000, and the content validity index was 90%. Of the participants, 14.3% were exposed to psychological abuse. Individuals with high dependency and low levels of income, education and mental capacity were exposed to psychological abuse more frequently (p <0.05). Conclusion: The Turkish version of the originally English EPAS is reliable and valid.

    Amaç: Bu araştırma bir devlet üniversitesinde okuyan hemşirelik öğrencilerinin engelli bireylere karşı tutum ve davranışlarını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Bu tanımlayıcı araştırma Aralık 2021-Şubat 2022 tarihleri arasında bir devlet üniversitesinde öğrenim gören 568 hemşirelik öğrencisi ile yürütüldü. Veriler: Sosyodemografik Anket Formu, Engelli Bireye Karşı Duyarlılık Formu, Engellilere Yönelik Çok Boyutlu Tutum Ölçeği ile toplandı, yüzdelik dağılım, ortalama, Mann Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis testleri ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin engelli bireylere karşı duygu alt boyutunda orta, davranış ve düşünce alt boyutunda olumlu tutuma sahip oldukları bulundu. Kadınların düşünce alt boyut puanı ve davranış alt boyut puanı erkeklere göre yüksek olduğu tespit edildi (p=0,000). Engellilerle ilgili ders almayan öğrencilerin duygu alt boyut puan ortalaması, ders alan öğrencilere göre yüksek olduğu görüldü (p<0.05). Sonuç: Öğrencilerin engelli bireylere yönelik tutumları olumlu bulundu. Bu tutumların daha olumlu yönde değişmesi için sivil toplum kuruluşları ve üniversiteler işbirliği içinde engellilere yönelik farkındalığı arttıracak panel, seminer gibi programlar düzenleyebilir, öğrencilerin engelli bireylerle temasını arttırmak için engelli bireyler okula davet edilebilir.

Participants completed questionnaires on coping styles with stress and Adolescent Lifestyle Profile Scale 2 (ALP-R2). Descriptive statistics, chi-square, t-test, and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the responses given to the above instruments. Results: Adolescents without HL (116.46±16.89) had significantly higher scores on the lifestyle profile scale than another group (113.68±16.12) (p<.000). The difference in coping styles (pray, hobbies and exercise etc.) with stress of two group was determined (p<.000). According to multiple linear regression analysis, independent variables explained 27% of the change in adolescent lifestyle profile in adolescents with HL (R2=.273). BMI (β=-.258), economic status (β=-.439), and mother education level (β=.146) were significant predictors affecting lifestyle profile in adolescents with HL. Also, independent variables explained 17% of the change in adolescent lifestyle profile in adolescents without HL (R2=.170). BMI (β=-.327) and economic status (β=-.233) were significant predictors in adolescents without HL. Conclusion: Lifestyle profiles of adolescents with HL are lower than those without HL. Adolescents with HL are more vulnerable in terms of a lifestyle behaviours and coping style with stress.

    (MARMARA UNIV, INST HEALTH SCIENCES, 2020-08-14) GÜR, KAMER; Sengel, Ayse; Gur, Kamer; Kilinc, Eda
    Objective: The aim of this study is to identify the occurrence frequency of school injuries, and to report where, when, and why they occur most. Methods: This retrospective descriptive study includes students aged between 6 and 11 years and is composed of 7042 school injury records. The school was chosen by the purposive sampling method since there was a school nurse working at school. The school injury records were formed by all injury records kept by the school nurse. The data were evaluated using descriptive statistics. Results: The study results showed that most of the school injuries occurred during the fall period (60.1%) and at break times (38.6%). As for the causes of the injuries, 13.3% of them were environmental, while 86.7% were behavioral. The floor on where most of the injuries occurred was rubber floor (53.6%) and the area where most of the injuries occurred was playground-garden (64%). The factor most frequently causing the injuries was hit collision, and the activity causing most of the injuries was running. The most frequently affected part of the body was head-neck-forehead-chin. The most common type of injury was tenderness and redness. Conclusion: With this study, it is seen that the rate of injury among students is high. Most of the school injuries occurred during the break times and mealtimes. Most of the causes of injuries were behavioral. These epidemiological data would be a guide for studies on prevention of injuries.

    PurposeThe purpose of this study is to determine the mental health status and risk factors for the mental health of first-year university students on a health sciences campus. Design/methodology/approachThis is a descriptive study. The research was conducted with first-year students in the health sciences, dentistry and medical faculties of a state university (n = 770). The data were collected with a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Risk Behavior of Young Adults Survey, the Bergen Insomnia Scale, General Health Questionnaire-28 and the Mental Health Improvement Scale. Body mass index was calculated. FindingsAmong the students, 53.7% experienced feelings of hopelessness in the last year and 1% had attempted suicide. The percentage of students found to be at risk in terms of mental health was 41.9%; 39.4% reported that they suffered from insomnia. It was found that those who had been subjected to bullying, felt hopelessness, had suicidal thoughts, planned to commit suicide and students who experienced sleeping problems were more at risk in terms of psychological issues (p < 0.01). Insomnia (beta: 3.341) and smoking (beta: 2.226) were identified as the strongest risk factors for mental health in first-year health sciences students (p < 0.005). Practical implicationsThe results of the research offer an opportunity to get to know the characteristics of first-year university students who are at risk for mental health. It offers the opportunity to closely monitor and protect the mental health of students starting from the first grade. Originality/valueIn this study, it was determined that approximately half of the first-year university students were in the risk group in terms of mental health. Female gender, having a chronic illness, smoking a day or more in the past 30 days, not doing any physical activity, having a weak BMI, being bullied in the past 12 months, being cyberbullied in the past 12 months and having insomnia have been identified as risk factors that negatively affect mental health.
