Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırma Sağlık Yüksekokulu Hemşirelik Bölümü öğrencilerinin stres durumları ve stresle baş etme yöntemlerini belirlemek amacı ile yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı nitelikte yapılan araştırmanın evrenini bir üniversitenin hemşirelik bölümü öğrencileri oluşturmuştur (N=460). Evrenin tamamına ulaşılmaya çalışılmış olup 320 öğrenci araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir. Veriler anket formu, Hemşirelik Eğitimi Stres Ölçeği ve Başa Çıkma Stratejileri Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde sayı, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma, t testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 20.59±1.5 olup, %71.2’sinin kız, %30.6’sının 1.sınıfta okuduğu saptanmıştır. Öğrencilerin hemşirelik Eğitimi Stres Ölçeği ortalama puanının 63.4±17.3 olduğu, Başa Çıkma Stratejileri Ölçeği alt boyutları ortalamasının 25.0±4.7 problem çözme için alt boyut, sosyal destek arama için 25.1±5.3 ve kaçınma için 24.2±5.3 olduğu saptanmıştır. Cinsiyeti kadın olan, İkinci sınıf öğrencilerinin ve hemşirelik bölümünü isteyerek seçmeyen öğrencilerin Hemşirelik Eğitimi Stres Ölçeği puan ortalamasının anlamlı şekilde daha yüksek olduğu, hemşirelik bölümünü isteyerek seçen öğrencilerin ise problem çözme alt boyut ortalamasının anlamlı şekilde daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0.05). Sonuç: Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin yüksek düzeyde stres yaşadığı, sağlıklarının korunması ve akademik başarılarının artması için stres oluşturan faktörlerin azaltılmasına yönelik düzenlemelerin yapılması önerilmektedir.
