    Examination of the Mental Health Status of University Students Directly or Indirectly Affected by the Earthquake
    (SAGE Publications Inc., 2025) Ayık, Y.; Kaya, H.; Sarısahin, S.; Ozturk, B.; Kayıhan, H.
    Objective: This study examines the mental health status of university students directly affected by the earthquake in the disaster zone and those indirectly affected by being outside the earthquake zone during the Kahramanmaraş earthquake that struck Turkey on February 6, 2023. Methods: A total of 109 students from 37 universities in 24 cities participated. Data were collected using an online survey that included a Demographic Information Form, the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), the Earthquake Anxiety Scale, the DSM-5 PTSD checklist, and the Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale-21. Mental health outcomes of directly and indirectly affected students were compared. Results: Students directly affected showed significantly higher levels of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and earthquake-related anxiety. Among indirectly affected students, females reported higher IES-R, PTSD, and earthquake anxiety scores than males. Regression analysis identified factors such as earthquake exposure, loss of relatives, involvement in search and rescue, and relocation as linked to adverse mental health outcomes. Conclusion: Although students directly affected by the earthquake are at greater risk for PTSD, depression, and anxiety, both groups face significant mental health problems. As these effects may be ongoing rather than temporary, the role of occupational therapy in promoting occupational engagement and mental health in disaster management is noteworthy. © The Author(s) 2025

    BackgroundThis study was performed in order to describe the nutritional experiences of university students with Type 1 diabetes who try to carry on their educational and social lives together in diabetes self-management.MethodsIn this descriptive and qualitative study, face-to-face and semi-structured in-depth interviews were performed with 15 university students with Type 1 diabetes, aged 18-30, resided in Istanbul, who were diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at least 5 years ago. The data collection process was performed by the researchers. The interviews were recorded and transcribed. The data collected in accordance with the phenomenological approach were processed using guided content analysis.ResultsIn the interview with the participants, whose mean age was 21.86 +/- 2.03 years and 66.7% of those were female, 6 themes were listed as positive and negative experiences of students in diabetes management in the university environment, general nutritional preferences, nutritional attitudes in non-routine and social environments, regular nutrition and quality of campus life, nutrition during the exercise/sports period, university support and students' expectations from the environment and explained by their sub-dimensions.ConclusionThe change in living conditions with the transition to campus life, the new social environment, individualization and academic responsibilities make diabetes self-management a challenging, complex and supportive process. This study might guide the enhancement of university students' living conditions with diabetes.
