Türk Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinde Purdue Pegboard Beceriklilik Testi İle Sınıf Başarı Sıralamasının Korelâsyonu

AMAÇ: Bu çalışma Türk hemşirelik öğrencilerinde el becerileri ile başarı sıralamaları arasındaki korelâsyonu belirlemek için gerçekleştirilmiştir. YÖNTEM: Purdue Pegboard Testi öğrencilerin el becerilerini belirlemek için kullanılır. Bu test standart zaman aralığında el becerilerinin uygulanması prensibine dayanır. Çalışma Şubat-Mart 2010 tarihleri arasında Gülhane Askeri Tıp Akademisinde birinci ve dördüncü sınıf hemşirelik öğrencisi arasında yürütülmüştür. BULGULAR: Çalışmaya 171 hemşirelik öğrencisi katılmıştır. Öğrencilerin çivi yerleştirme ortalaması sağ elle 15,7±1,7, sol elle 14,6±1,5 ve her ikşi elle 12,1±1,6 idi. Montaj yapma ortalamaları 8,7±1,6 olarak belirlendi. Öğrencilerin el becerilerine göre karşılaştırmada her iki el ortalamaları dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinde birinci sınıf öğrencilerine göre istatistiksel olarak daha yüksekti. SONUÇ: El becerisi hakkında Türkler için normatif verilere ulaşma ihtiyacı vardır.

[Correlation of Purdue Pegboard Dexterity Test Scores with Class Rank of Turkish Nursing Students]

AIM: This study is performed to determine the correlation between manual skill of the Turkish nursing students and their class rank. METHODS: The Purdue Pegboard test is utilized to determine the manual skills of the students. This test is based on the applicability principle of the manual skills at standard time intervals. The study was conducted between February to March 2010 among first and fourth year nursing students of Gulhane Military Medical Academy. RESULTS: Study included 171 Nursing students. The pin placement average of the students was 15.7±1.7 with the right hand, 14.6±1.5 with the left hand and 12.1±1.6 with both hands and their assembly generation average is determined as 8.7±1.6. At a comparison regarding the manual skills of the students, it is determined that the both hand average of the fourth class students was statistically higher than that of the first class students (p = 0.0009). CONCLUSION: There is a need of assessing Turkish normative data on manual dexterity.
