Working Method

Introduction: Getting healthy lifestyle behaviors is important for a healthy life.Aim: In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of individual working method (IWM) on health self-efficacy perception and healthy lifestyle behaviors in nursing students.Material and method: This study was carried out in the spring semester of 2015-2016 academic year using semi-experimental designs and pre-test post-test control group pattern on total 158 first year nursing student. The data of the study were collected by the socio-demographic questionnaire and Healthy Lifestyle Behavior Scale II (HLBS-II) and Health Self-Efficacy Perception Scale (HSEP). While the topics covered in the health promotion and development course program are presented with a group narration and question-answer method, in other group the IWM has been applied which provides the opportunity for the students to evaluate their behavior in addition to narrative method (NM). In the analysis of the data, number, percentage, arithmetic mean, chi square test, t test, correlation analysis and Cohen d formula were used, p <0.05 value was accepted as statistically significant. Results: There was no significant change in the mean score of the HLBS-II score of the students in the NM group at the end of the term (p> 0.05), but the mean scores of the students in the IWM group increased (p <0.001). In the NM group, there was a “low change” in physical activity, nutrition, health responsibility sub-dimensions in the HLBS-II scale and “low/ medium change” in all sub-dimensions in the IWM group (p <0.05). In both groups, the lowest point average for both measures belongs to the nutrition sub-dimension.While there was no change in the NM group (p> 0.05) in the health self-efficacy perception, the increase in the IWM group was significant (p <0.05).Conclusion: It is recommended to use interactive training methods such as IWM besides the NM to gain healthy lifestyle behaviors.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetGiriş: İnsanlara sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarının kazandırılması sağlıklı bir yaşam için önemlidir.Amaç:  Bu çalışmanın amacı,  hemşirelik öğrencilerinde bireysel çalışma yönteminin sağlık öz yeterlik algısı ve sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarına olan etkisini belirlemektirGereç ve Yöntem: Bu araştırma yarı deneysel tasarımlardan ön test son test kontrol gruplu desen kullanılarak 2015-2016 eğitim öğretim yılı bahar döneminde 158 hemşirelik birinci sınıf öğrencisi ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın verileri sosyodemografik soru formu, “Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları II Ölçeği” ve “Sağlık Öz Yeterlilik Algısı Ölçeği” ile toplanmıştır. Sağlığı koruma ve geliştirme dersi programında yer alan konular bir gruba “anlatım ve soru-cevap” yöntemi ile sunulurken diğer gruba ek olarak öğrencilerin kendi davranışlarını değerlendirmelerine fırsat sunan “bireysel çalışma yöntemi” uygulanmıştır.Verilerin analizinde yüzde, aritmetik ortalama, ki kare testi, t testleri, korelasyon analizleri ve Cohen d formulü kullanılmış, p<0.05 değeri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edilmiştir.  Bulgular:  Dönem sonunda anlatım yöntemi grubundaki öğrencilerin Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları Ölçeği II toplam puan ortalamasında anlamlı değişim görülmezken (p>0.05), BÇY grubundaki öğrencilerin puan ortalamalarında artış olmuştur (p<0.001). Anlatım yöntemi grubunda Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları II Ölçeğinde fiziksel aktivite, beslenme, sağlık sorumluluğu alt boyutlarında “düşük düzeyde”, bireysel çalışma grubunda tüm alt boyutlarda “düşük/orta düzeyde” değişim görülmüştür (p<0.05). Her iki grupta en düşük puan ortalaması beslenme alt boyutuna aittir. Sağlık özyeterlik algısında anlatım yöntemi grubunda değişim görülmezken (p>0.05) Bireysel Çalışma Yöntemi grubunda ki artış anlamlıdır (p<0.05).Sonuç: Sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışları ve sağlık özyeterlik algısının gelişiminde bireysel çalışma yönteminin anlatım yönteminden daha  etkili olduğu belirlenmiştir.Öneriler: Bireylere sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışı kazandırmada anlatım yanında bireysel çalışma yöntemi gibi interaktif eğitim yöntemlerinin kullanılması önerilir.

This cross-sectional study, in which the first-year findings of a prospective followup study were presented, was conducted with 356 students enrolled in the firstyear of three faculties at a state university in Istanbul between November 1st and December 31st, 2019. With this study, it was aimed to evaluate the changes in certain healthy lifestyle behaviors, risky behaviors and depression levels of students enrolled at the different faculties of a public university in Istanbul during their university life. The data were obtained through a questionnaire of 65 questions, and the Beck Depression Inventory, which consisted of 21 questions. They were administered under supervision by providing preliminary information to the students. The mean body mass index, mean systolic blood pressure and mean diastolic blood pressure values of the students were 23.23 + 4.1, 108.97 + 15.21 and 66.98 + 10.08, respectively. The mean daily sleep time was 6.77 + 1.21 hours, the mean TV viewing time was 0.77 + 1.13 hours, and the mean time they spent with a smartphone, tablet or computer was 3.67 + 2.50 hours. Among the students, 37.07% were smokers, 26.12% consumed alcohol, and 4.77% used addictive substances. Of the students, 31.46% considered themselves at risk for depression. At the universities, there is a need for the implementation of health promotion programs focusing on promoting physical activity and healthy nutrition and reducing risky behaviors. In addition, these programs should be strengthened with the trainings on changing behaviors.

Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the effects of the educational package provided to enhance family caregivers' experience of colorectal cancer patients receiving chemotherapy on healthy lifestyle and caregiving reactions.Methods: The study was conducted as a pre-test-post-test, quasi-experimental intervention with a control group. The study population consisted of 100 caregivers who provide primary care to patients with colorectal cancer. The data were collected using the "Socio-Demographic Characteristics Data Collection Form", the "Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale-II", and the "Caregiver Reaction Assessment” forms. The pre-test was applied to the experimental and control groups at the first interview. After the preliminary interview, the experimental group was applied three times to face-to-face individual educational sessions through the education booklet prepared by taking the opinions of 5 academician nurses who are experts in the oncology field. The post-test then was applied to the caregivers in the experimental and control groups.Results: After the education provided to the experimental group, a positive change was observed in the mean scores of all sub-dimensions of Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale-II except for the physical sub-dimension. In the control group, there was a statistically significant negative change in the post-test mean scores in all sub-dimensions of the Caregiver Reaction Assessment Scale. Lack of family support in caregivers negatively affected interpersonal relationships, nutrition, health responsibility, and spiritual growth.Conclusion: In order to reduce the problems in family members, it is important to interact with a multidisciplinary approach not only with the patient but also with the caregivers during the chemotherapy process.
