Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin Sağlıklı Yaşam Becerilerinin Değerlendirilmesi: Betimsel Bir Araştırma

Giriş ve amaç: Bir üniversitede okurken geçirilen süre, sağlıklı yaşam becerilerinin kazanılması için önemli bir dönemdir. Bu araştırma, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin sağlıklı yaşam becerilerini ve öğrencilerin sağlıklı yaşam becerilerini etkileyebilecek faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla tanımlayıcı olarak yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmaya İstanbul'da bulunan, bir vakıf üniversitesinin Sağlık Bilimleri Yüksekokulunda öğrenim görmekte olan 298 hemşirelik öğrencisi dahil edilmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri "Kişisel Bilgi Formu" ve "Sağlıklı Yaşam Becerileri Ölçeği" kullanılarak toplanmıştır. İstatistiksel analiz için yüzde hesaplamaları, ortalama ölçümler, Kruskal Wallis testi ve Mann Whitney U testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Ölçeğin toplam puanı 65.83±9.23’tür. Ölçeğin alt ölçekleri incelendiğinde; “Sağlığa Verilen Önem” alt ölçek puanının en yüksek puan (26.07 ± 3.91), “Sağlık Önceliği” alt ölçek puanının ise en düşük puan (10.66 ± 1.39) olduğu bulunmuştur. Kız öğrencilerin sağlıklı yaşam becerilerinin erkek öğrencilere göre daha iyi olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0.05). İkinci sınıf öğrencilerin ve sigara ve alkol alışkanlığı olmayan öğrencilerin daha iyi sağlıklı yaşam becerilerine sahip oldukları belirlenmiştir (p<0.05). Sonuç: Bu çalışma sonucunda hemşirelik öğrencilerinin sağlıklı yaşam becerileri düzeyi ortalamanın üzerinde bulunmuştur. Öğrencilerin yaş düzeyi, cinsiyeti, alkol ve sigara kullanımı sağlıklı yaşam becerilerini etkilemiştir.

When the subscales of the scale were examined; It was found that "The Importance Given to Health" subscale score was the highest score (26.07 ± 3.91) and the "Health Priority” subscale score was the lowest score (10.66 ± 1.39). It was found that female students' healthy life skills were better than male students’ score (p<0.05 ). It was determined that the second year students and students who did not have smoking and drinking habits had healthier life skills (p<0.05).
