Abstract

Autonomy is one of the vocational criteria of the nursing profession and is essential for safe and quality care. Nurses begin to learn theknowledge, skills, attitudes, and values associated with their professional roles during their school years. Nursing students should primarilyhave a high level of autonomy to protect and improve individuals’ health, and enhance their life quality in the future. This descriptive studywas carried out with 285 nursing students to determine their autonomy levels. The study data were collected using a personal informationform and the autonomy subscale (AS) of the Sociotropy-Autonomy Scale. For the analysis of the data, numbers, percentages, mean andstandard deviation values, Mann-Whitney U, and Kruskal Wallis tests were employed, and the significance level was accepted as p <0.05.The mean total score of the students obtained from AS was 103.65 ± 18.34. Their scores from the subscales of AS were 42.68 ± 8.16 for“personal achievement”, 40.77 ± 7.70 for “freedom”, and 20.20 ± 4.70 for “enjoying loneliness”. The mean total score of the first-gradestudents was found to be higher than that of other grades, but the difference was not statistically significant (p> 0.05). The autonomy levelof the students was found to be above the middle level, and the autonomy level of 1st-grade students was higher than that of the studentsin other grades.

Özet

Otonomi, hemşirelik mesleğinin profesyonellik kriterlerinden biridir ve güvenli, kaliteli bakım için gereklidir. Hemşireler profesyonel rolleriyle ilişkili bilgi, beceri, tutum ve değerleri eğitimleri sırasında öğrenmeye başlarlar. Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin gelecekte bireylerin sağlığını korumak, geliştirmek ve yaşam kalitesini yükseltmek için öncelikle yüksek düzeyde otonomiye sahip olmaları gerekir. Tanımlayıcı olan bu araştırma hemşirelik öğrencilerinin otonomi düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla, 285 hemşirelik öğrencisiyle yapılmıştır. Araştırmada veriler kişisel bilgi formu ve Sosyotropi-otonomi Ölçeği’nin otonomi alt boyutu (OÖ) ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde sayı, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma, Mann Whitney U ve Krukal Wallis kullanılmış, anlamlılık düzeyi p<0.05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. Öğrencilerin OÖ toplam puan ortalamaları 103.65±18.34, OÖ’nin alt boyutlarının puan ortalamaları; “kişisel başarı” 42.68±8.16, “özgürlük” 40.77±7.70, “yalnızlıktan hoşlanma” 20.20±4.70 olarak belirlenmiştir. 1. sınıf öğrencilerinin OÖ toplam puan ortalamalarının diğer sınıflara göre daha yüksek olduğu ancak farkın istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmadığı saptanmıştır (p>0.05). Öğrencilerin otonomi düzeyleri orta düzeyin üzerindedir ve 1. sınıf öğrencilerin otonomi düzeyleri diğer sınıflardaki öğrencilere göre daha yüksektir.
