Bu çalışma, üniversitede öğrenim gören kadın öğrencilerin flört şiddetine maruz kalma durumları ile anksiyete ve umutsuzluk düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi saptamayı amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tiptedir. Veriler, Aralık 2013 ile Mayıs 2014 tarihleri arasında çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden ve romantik bir ilişkisi olan 500 kadın üniversite öğrencisinden öz bildirime dayalı olarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında öğrencilerin sosyo-demografik özellikleri ile şiddete maruz kalma durumlarını değerlendiren anket formu ile Beck Anksiyete ve Beck Umutsuzluk Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde; sayı, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma ve Mann-Whitney U testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma öncesinde tüm yerel ve etik izinler alınmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan kadın öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 21,05±1,81, partnerlerinin yaş ortalaması ise 22,99±2,91'dir. Partneri tarafından kadın öğrencilerin %88'i duygusal, %22,2'si sözel, %21,4'ü ekonomik, %16,4'ü fiziksel, %7,2'si cinsel şiddete maruz kalmıştır. Öğrencilerin anksiyete düzeyleri ile duygusal, sözel, cinsel ve ekonomik şiddete maruz kalma durumları arasında anlamlı bir ilişki varken (p<0,05), umutsuzluk düzeyleri ile sözel, fiziksel, cinsel ve ekonomik şiddete maruz kalma durumları arasında da anlamlı bir ilişki vardır (p<0,05). Sonuç: Kadın öğrenciler arasında tüm şiddet çeşitleri görülme oranları yüksektir ve bu durum öğrencilerin anksiyete düzeylerini yükseltmektedir. Şiddete rağmen, öğrencilerin umutsuzluk düzeyleri ise düşüktür. Bu durum, bekâr gençlerde şiddet olaylarının umutsuzluk düzeylerini çok fazla etkilemediğini düşündürmektedir.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of protective nursing interventions, such as education, healthy nutrition and physical activities for reducing obesity risk, and motivational messages sent via social media on the reduction of obesity risk in university students. Methods: This randomized controlled study, which has two parallel sections, was conducted with seventy university students in the risk group for obesity. Experimental and control groups were randomly selected and assigned. Interventions regarding nutritional habits, physical activities, and motivational social media messages lasted for eleven weeks. The primary outcome measures were scores for nutrition-exercise attitudes, nutrition-exercise behaviors, and exercise benefits/obstacles. The secondary outcome measures were body mass indexes, waist-to-hip ratios, and body fat percentages. Data were collected by the assistant investigator, not knowing who was in the experimental and control groups. This study ensured blinding in terms of data collectors, statistical analyses, and reporting. The data were analyzed using the SPSS 20 software package. Conclusion: This study is important as a model that can provide evidence for further studies to be conducted to reduce obesity risk.

This study aims to determine the attitudes of undergraduate nursing students studying at a public university toward childhood vaccines and investigate whether students' attitudes change according to sociodemographic characteristics, vaccination history, and perceived level of knowledge. Material and Method:This descriptive study was conducted with 83 students studying in the Department of Nursing at a public university in Konya between May 2020 and September 2021. The data were collected using the Information Form and the Public Attitude toward Vaccination-Health Belief Model Scale. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and the Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis non-parametric tests.Results: When the childhood vaccination attitude scores of the students were examined according to their sociodemographic characteristics, it was seen that there was a statistically significant difference between gender and the perceived barriers attitude score; between the economic status of the family and the perceived severity and perceived barriers attitude scores; the location of the high school graduated and the perceived severity, perceived susceptibility, perceived benefit and health motivation attitude scores. When the distribution of students' childhood vaccination attitude scores across their childhood vaccination history and perceived level of knowledge about vaccines was examined, it was observed that there was a statistically significant difference between having sufficient knowledge about childhood vaccines and the perceived barriers attitude score. Conclusion:Our study revealed that gender, economic status, the location of the high school graduates, and the perceived level of knowledge about childhood vaccines affect vaccination attitudes.
