Elektronik Cihaz Kullanımının Uyku ve Depresyon ile ilişkisinin irdelenmesi

Amaç:Çalışmamızda üniversite öğrencilerinde televizyon, bilgisayar ve cep telefonu kullanım sürelerinin depresyon ve uyku sorunu yaşamaya etkisinin olup olmadığı araştırılmıştır. Hastalar ve Yöntem:Çalışma tanımlayıcı tiptedir. Çalışma, 01/05/2017-01/10/2017 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın evrenini, bir üniversitenin tıp fakültesi (n:61), sağlık yüksekokulu (n:236) ve sağlık meslek yüksekokulunda (n:251) okuyan toplam 548 birinci sınıf öğrencilerinden oluşmaktadır. Veriler, literatür taraması ile oluşturulan anket formu ve Beck Depresyon Ölçeği aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Bulgular:Bilgisayar ve televizyon kullanım süresi ile uyku sorunu yaşama ve Beck Depresyon Ölçeği ortalamaları arasında bir ilişki bulunamamıştır (p>0.05). Cep telefonunu 1 yıldan fazla kullananlar ile günde 3 saat ve üstü kullananların uyku sorunu yaşadıkları belirlenmiştir (p<0.05). Cep telefonunu günde 3 saat ve üstü kullananların Beck Depresyon Ölçeği ortalamalarının 3 saatten az kullananlara göre daha yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0.05). Sonuç:Cep telefonu kullanım süresinin fazla olması radyasyon maruziyetini arttırmaktadır. Bu durum üniversite öğrencilerinde depresif belirtilerin artmasına ve uyku sorunu yaşamalarına neden olmaktadır.

Examination of the Relationship Between the use of Electronic Devices and Sleep and Depression

Purpose:The university students, televisions, computers and mobile phones have investigated whether there is an effect of their lifetime to experience depression and sleep problems. Patients and Methods:The study is descriptive. The study was conducted between 01/05/2017-01/10/2017. The student\'s universe consists of a total of 548 first-year students studying at a university faculty of medicine (n: 61), health college (n: 236) and health vocational college (n: 251). The data were collected through a questionnaire prepared by literature search and the Beck Depression Scale. Results:There was no correlation between the duration of computer and television use and the sleep problems and Beck Depression Scale averages (p> 0.05). We determined that those who use mobile phone for more than 1 year and those who use 3 hours or more per day have a sleep problem (p <0.05). We found that those who use mobile phone more than 3 hours a day are higher than those who use less than 3 hours average of Beck Depression Scale (p <0.05). Conclusion:Excessive use of mobile phones increases radiation exposure. This situation leads to an increase in depressive symptoms and to a sleeping problem in university students.
