Abstract
Purpose: The aim of study was to determine and compare attitudes of nursing students and factors affecting them before and after graduation for evidence-based nursing. Methods: The data in first follow-up of study were collected by using Individual Identification Form and Knowledge, Attitude and Behaviors of Nursing Students Towards Evidence-Based Nursing Scale that are applied to senior (n = 171) students. The second follow-up of study was carried out with graduates (n = 103). In second follow-up, data were collected by using Attitude Towards Evidence-Based Nursing Scale. Findings: There was a weak positive correlation between attitudes of participants about evidence-based nursing before and after graduation (r = .236; p = .016). In addition, as attitudes of participants towards evidence-based nursing were positive before graduation, their feelings about benefits of evidence-based nursing in clinical practice were positive (r=.214; p=.030).Utilizing evidence-based practices when planning nursing care, reading professional journals and attending scientific meetings are among factors that affect attitudes of individuals to evidence-based nursing both before and after graduation. Conclusion: The more students' knowledge, attitudes and behaviors towards evidence-based nursing are increased during their undergraduate education, the more they will tend to apply evidence-based nursing in their working lives.
Özet
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı kanıta dayalı hemşireliğe yönelik mezuniyet öncesinde ve sonrasında katılımcıların tutumlarını, etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek ve karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmanın birinci aşamasında veriler, dördüncü sınıfta öğrenim gören (n=171) öğrencilere Birey Tanıtım Formu ve Öğrencilerin Kanıta Dayalı Hemşirelik Konusundaki Bilgi, Tutum ve Davranışları Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın ikinci aşaması mezunlar (n=103) ile yürütülmüştür. İkinci aşamada veriler Kanıta Dayalı Hemşireliğe Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Katılımcıların mezuniyet öncesi ve sonrası kanıta dayalı hemşirelik konusundaki tutumları arasında pozitif yönde zayıf bir ilişki bulunmuştur. (r=0,236; p=0,016). Ayrıca mezuniyet öncesinde katılımcıların kanıta dayalı hemşireliğe yönelik tutumu olumlu oldukça, kanıta dayalı hemşireliğin klinik uygulamada sağladığı yararlar konusundaki duyguları da olumlu olmaktadır (r=0,214; p=0,030). Hemşirelik bakımını planlarken kanıta dayalı uygulamalardan yararlanmak, mesleki dergileri okumak ve bilimsel toplantılara katılmak hem mezuniyet öncesi hem de mezuniyet sonrası bireyin kanıta dayalı hemşireliğe yönelik tutumunu etkileyen faktörler arasındadır. Sonuç: Öğrencilerin lisans eğitimi boyunca öğrencilerin kanıta dayalı hemşireliğe yönelik bilgileri, tutum ve davranışları ne kadar geliştirilir ise, çalışma hayatlarında kanıta dayalı hemşireliği uygulama eğilimi o kadar artacaktır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Kanıta dayalı hemşirelik, hemşirelik öğrencileri, eğitim. Abstract Objective: The aim of this study is to determine and compare participants’ attitudes and influencing factors towards evidence-based nursing before and after graduation. Material and Method: The data in the first stage of the study were collected by using Individual Identification Form and Knowledge, Attitude and Behaviors of Nursing Students Towards Evidence-Based Nursing Scale to the senior (n = 171) students. The second stage of the research was carried out with graduates (n = 103). In the second stage, data were collected by using Attitude Towards Evidence-Based Nursing Scale. Results: A weak positive correlation was found between the attitudes of the participants before and after graduation towards evidence-based nursing (r = 0.236; p = 0.016). In addition, before graduation, the more positive the attitude of the participants towards evidence-based nursing is, the more positive they feel about the benefits of evidencebased nursing in clinical practice. (r=0.214; p=0.030). Utilizing evidence-based practices when planning nursing care, reading professional journals, and attending scientific meetings are among factors that affect the attitudes of individual towards evidencebased nursing both before and after graduation. Conclusion: The more students’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards evidencebased nursing are increased during their undergraduate education, the more they will tend to apply evidence-based nursing in their working area.
