An Evaluation of Sexual Attitudes of Nursing Students in Turkey
Öz: Amaç: Cinsellik, holistik yaklaşımının önemli parçalarından biridir. Hemşirelerin cinsel bakım verebilmeleri için, öncelikle kendi cinsel tutumlarını ve bu tutumların bakımı nasıl etkilediğini fark edebilmeleri gerekmektedir. Hemşirelerde bu farkındalığın sağlanması ve cinselliğe karşı olumlu bir tutum geliştirilmesi için en uygun zaman hemşirelik eğitim sürecidir. Bu çalışma; hemşirelik öğrencilerinin cinselliğe karşı tutumlarının belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu, tanımlayıcı çalışmanın örneklemini, 130 Gazi Üniversitesi Hemşirelik Bölümü öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Veriler; selfreport yöntemi ile sosyo-demografik veri formu ve Trueblood Cinsel Tutum Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmış, yüzdelik dağılım ve Bağımsız örneklemlerde t-testi kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir.Bulgular: Çalışmanın sonucuna göre, öğrencilerin cinsellikle ilgili tutumlarının muhafazakâr kabul edilebilecek düzeydedir. İkinci sınıf öğrencileri en muhafazakâr grubu, üçüncü sınıf öğrencileri de en liberal grubu oluşturmaktadır. Öğrenciler kendi cinselliklerine karşı diğerlerinden daha muhafazakâr bir tutuma sahiptir.Sonuç: Çalışmamızın sonuçları, örneklemimizde hemşirelik öğrencilerinin cinsel tutumlarının muhafazakâr olduğunu ve klasik hemşirelik eğitiminin, öğrencilerin cinselliğe karşı toplumun tutumundan farklı olarak, evrensel bir tutumun benimsenmesinde etkili olmadığını ortaya koymaktadır. Çalışmamız, hemşirelik eğitiminde, öğrencilerin cinsel tutumlarını daha pozitif yönde değiştirebilecek yöntemler geliştirmek amacıyla planlanacak çalışmalara zemin oluşturacak niteliktedir.

Öz: Objectives: Sexual health is an important area of holistic nursing care. As a result, nurses should be aware of their attitudes toward sexuality and their effect on the care they provide their patients. The ideal period of time for nurses to develop awareness and positive attitudes toward sexuality is the training process. This study aimed to determine the attitudes of nursing students toward sexuality.Methods: The sample group for this descriptive research consisted of 130 students from Gazi University Nursing School in Ankara, Turkey. The data were gathered via self-reporting on a sociodemographic data form and the Trueblood Sexual Attitudes Questionnaire, and analyzed using frequencies analysis and the independent variables t-test.Results: This study found that nursing students held conservative attitudes about sexuality. Second-year students constituted the most conservative group, while third-year students were the most liberal. Overall, students were more conservative about their own sexuality than that of others.Conclusion: Our work reveals that the attitude of nursing students in our sample toward sexuality was conservative, and thus, their classical nursing training was not effective in developing a more universal attitude, different from that of the surrounding society, toward the subject. These findings provide a basis for possible future planning of studies about changing nursing students' attitudes toward sexuality during their nursing training.
