Doktorlar İçin İletişim Bir Reçete midir? İletişim Yeterliliği ve Güven Arasındaki İlişki: Meme Hastaları Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Sağlık iletişimi alanında iletişim yeterliliği konusunda pek çok çalışma yapılmış olmasına rağmen, radyoloji departmanında iletişim yeterliliğinin güven oluşumu üzerindeki rolünün daha fazla araştırılması gerekmektedir. Radyologların iletişim becerileri önemli bir güven göstergesi olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu nedenle bu çalışma iletişim yeterliliğinin güven üzerindeki etkisini araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda bu çalışma, radyoloji departmanında bulunan doktorların iletişim yeterliliğini hastaların algılarına bağlı araştırarak sağlık iletişimi literatürüne iletişim yeterliliğinin güven oluşumundaki belirleyici rolünü açıklayarak katkıda bulunmayı hedeflemektedir. Araştırma, Aralık 2019-Mart 2020 tarihleri arasında Antalya’da bir kamu hastanesinin radyoloji bölümünde 321 meme hastası ile anket formu kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçları, bir bütün olarak iletişim yeterliliğinin güven üzerinde güçlü ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğunu gösterirken, iletişim yeterliliği boyutları arasında güven oluşumunda güçlü etkiye sahip tek boyutun sosyo-duygusal iletişim olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Is Communication A Receipt For Doctors? The Relationship Between Communication Competence And Trust: A Research On Breast Patients

Although significant studies have been conducted in the field of health communication in terms of communication competence, its role on trust in the radiology department needs further exploration. The communication skills of radiologists are considered an important indicator of trust. Therefore, the study aims to research the effect of communication competence on trust. With this aim the current study seeks to contribute to health communication literature by researching the patients’ perceived communication competence of doctors as a determining factor that develop trust in the radiology department. The research was carried out between December 2019 and March 2020 using a questionnaire form with 321 breast patients in the radiology department in a public health institution in Antalya, Turkey. The results of the study refer that communication competence as a whole concept has a strong positive and statistically significant effect on trust. When the dimensions of communication competence are investigated, it is found that socioemotional communication is the only dimension that has a strong effect on the formation of trust among communication competence.
