The Knowledge Levels, Preventive Behavior And Risk Perception On COVID-19 Of The Healthcare Students In Turkey

Öz:
Objective: In this study, 19 health-related knowledge level ofstudents Covidien in Turkey, was conducted to determine thepreventive behavior and risk perception.Material-Method: This cross-sectional study was conductedfrom 14th to 20th of May, 2020. The questionnaire wascompleted with voluntary participation of university studentswho have education in the field of health. Questionnaireconsisted of 26 questions including 15 items about COVID-19related knowledge, 9 items regarding preventive measures and2 items about COVID-19 risk perception. Reliability of thequestionnaire was shown to be satisfactory.Results: Total 1438 students studying in departments abouthealth participated in the study. 943 participants (65%)were associate degree students, 495 people (35%) wereundergraduate students. The average COVID-19 knowledgelevel was 90.3%, its attitude towards protective behaviorwas 99%, and the risk perception rate was 4.82. In terms ofapplying protective behavior, 99% of the respondents gavethe correct answer. 24% of the participants had low level riskperception, 40% medium level perception, 36% high levelrisk perception. Participants' high level of knowledge and riskperceptions (r=-0.560, p=0.015) between protective behaviorsand risk perceptions (r=-0.839, p=0.005) and protectivebehaviors and knowledge level (r=-0.737, p=0.009) Therewas a moderate correlation between.Conclusion: The knowledge level is at a level that providesinsulation with the recognition and protection of the diseasein our study if cases and the mortality rate in Turkey isconsidered. Hierarchical knowledge-based education isa prerequisite for preventing and controlling the spreadCOVID-19 for healthcare professionals who will take activerole in the epidemic.

Türkiye’de Sağlık Öğrencilerinin COVID-19 Üzerine Bilgi Düzeyleri, Koruyucu Davranışları ve Risk Algıları

Öz:
Amaç: Çalışma Türkiye'deki sağlık öğrencilerinin COVID-19 ile ilgili bilgi düzeylerini, önleyici davranışları ve risk algılamasını belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı. Materyal-Metot: Araştırma, sağlık alanında eğitim alan üniversite öğrencilerinin gönüllü katılımı ile 14-20 Mayıs 2020 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirildi. Anket, COVID-19 ile ilgili bilgilerle ilgili 15 madde, koruyucu davranışlarla ilgili 9 madde ve risk algısıyla ilgili 2 maddeden oluşan 26 sorudan oluşmaktadır. Anketin güvenilirliğinin yeterli düzeyde bulundu. Bulgular: Araştırmaya sağlıkla ilgili bölümlerde okuyan toplam 1438 öğrenci katıldı. 943 katılımcı (%65) ön lisans öğrencisi, 495 kişi (%35) lisans öğrencisiydi. Ortalama COVID-19 bilgi düzeyi %90,3, koruyucu davranışa karşı tutumu %99 ve risk algılama oranı %4,82'dir. Koruyucu davranışların uygulanması açısından katılımcıların %99’u doğru cevabı verdi. Katılımcıların %24’ü düşük seviye risk algısına, %40 orta seviye risk algısına, %36’sı ise yüksek seviye risk algısına sahipti. Katılımcıların, koruyucu davranışlar ile risk algılamaları (r=-0,839, p=0,005) ve koruyucu davranışlar ile bilgi düzeyi (r=-0,737, p=0,009) arasında yüksek düzeyde, bilgi ve risk algıları (r=-0,560, p=0,015) arasında orta düzeyde bir korelasyon vardı. Sonuç: Çalışmamız da bilgi düzeyinin, Türkiye’deki vaka ve ölüm oranı dikkate alınacak olursa hastalığı tanıma ve korunma ile izolasyon sağlayacak düzeyde olduğunu görüyoruz. Salgın konusunda aktif rol üstlenecek sağlık profesyoneli adayları için COVID-19’un yayılımının önlenmesi ve kontrol altına alınması için hiyerarşik bilgi tabanlı öğretimin önkoşul olduğu kanaatindeyiz.
