    The Effect of Simulation-Based Electroconvulsive Therapy Education on Perception and Knowledge of Nursing Students: a Semiexperimental Study
    (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2025) Dikeç, G.; Şan, E.Ö.
    Objectives Despite the recognized benefits and safety of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for treating mental disorders, negative perceptions persist among both the public and mental health professionals. This stigma is often rooted in historical practices and media portrayals, despite modern advancements in the technique. This study aimed to assess the impact of simulation-based ECT education on nursing students' perceptions and knowledge regarding ECT before and after the procedure. Methods This study was planned to use a single-group pretest and posttest quasi-experimental design with a 3-month follow-up. Simulation-based ECT education involved 1 hour of theoretical instruction followed by hands-on learning using a high-fidelity mannequin. Final-year nursing students enrolled in a psychiatric and mental health nursing course were examined on their knowledge and perceptions of ECT before, immediately after, and 3 months following the intervention. Results Students reported statistically significant improvements in their perception and knowledge levels after participating in the simulation-based ECT education. The results were similar at the 3-month follow-up. Conclusions Simulation-based ECT education can be effectively integrated into both undergraduate and graduate nursing curricula to foster positive perceptions and enhance knowledge about ECT.

    (Ataturk Univ, 2024) Elmali Simsek, Hulya; Karali, Ece; Arslan, Gunay; Elmalı, Hülya; Özoğul, Ece
    Objective: The study aimed to determine the challenges experienced by international nursing undergraduate students during their education period. Methods: A phenomenological research design was used. The study was conducted with 20 international nursing students enrolled in a foundation university in T & uuml;rkiye. Colaizzi's phenomenological data analysis method was employed in the study. Results: Based on the study's results, three main themes, 'Learning in a different environment', 'Challenges', 'Solution-Non Solution' and 'System difference, Language problems in clinical practice, Broad nursing curriculum, Facilitators, Language barrier, Feeling homesick, Racism and discrimination, Housing difficulties, Lack of funding, Instant solution, Failing to find a solution sub-themes themes were created. Conclusion: It has been observed that students experience different environments, uncertainties, and various challenges, and that these situations directly affect their education and success. To that end, both the institutions they receive education and the academicians must support the students in various ways.

    Nursing Student's Perceptions of the Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher: a Cross-Sectional Study
    (Ataturk Univ, 2024) Karaca, Anita; Kizilkaya Beji, Nezihe; Kaya, Gizem; Beji, Nezihe Kızılkaya
    Objective: This study aimed to determine nursing students' perceptions of the clinical learning environment, supervision and nurse teacher, and its affecting factors. Methods: This cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted with 205 students using the Student Information Form and the Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher Evaluation Scale. The study included 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th year nursing students studying in the spring semester of 2020-2021. Data were collected by online method. Descriptive statistics (means, frequencies and percentages), Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis analyses were used to analyze the data. Results: The students of 59.5% stated their opinions were not taken during clinical practice placement, whereas 71.2% of them were placed in the compatible clinical environment. The students did not experience any problems during their clinical practice (77.6%) and they evaluated their satisfaction as "good" (37.6%). The lowest and highest sub-dimension scores from the scale were the "Pedagogical Atmosphere on the Ward (3.71 +/- 1.15)" and the "Premises of Nursing on the Ward (3.93 +/- 1.13)", respectively. The sub-dimension mean scores of the scale were significantly different from satisfaction with clinical practice, problems encountered during clinical practice, and placement in the compatible clinical environment (P<.001). Conclusion: Nursing students had a good perception of the supervision, learning environment, and nurse teacher. A positive clinical environment for nursing students that allows them to take an active role in patient care and nursing practice should be developed and maintained.

    Psychometric Properties of the Gender Role Attitudes Scale Among Turkish Nursing Students and Factors Affecting Their Attitudes
    (Wiley, 2022) Celebi Cakiroglu, Oya; Harmanci Seren, Arzu Kader
    Purpose This study aimed to test the psychometric properties of the Gender Roles Attitudes Scale-Turkish Version (GRAS-TR) and evaluate nursing students' gender role attitudes. Design and Methods This was a psychometric and descriptive study. The sample consisted of 916 nursing students at two state universities in Turkey. Findings The content validity index of the scale was 0.89. The confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the fit indices were acceptable/good. Test-retest results and Cronbach alpha coefficient showed that the scale has high reliability. Nursing students scored above midlevel from GRAS-TR. Practice Implications GRAS-TR is a valid and reliable instrument. Nursing students who were women, had postgraduate education, few siblings, and were not born/raised in the eastern region had a more egalitarian attitude.

    The Turkish Version of the Patient Safety Competency Self-Evaluation Tool: a Validity and Reliability Study
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021) Eskici, Gulcan Taskiran; Kanig, Merve; Ugur, Esra; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci
    Aim: To test the validity and reliability of the Patient Safety Competency Self-Evaluation Tool in Turkish, which was developed to evaluate the patient safety competencies of nursing students. Background: In nursing education, it is crucial to provide students with the necessary professional knowledge and skills as well as appropriate attitudes in certain subjects. It is essential to address frequently encountered problems, to train nurses who can be aware of patient safety and improve the quality of nursing education. A valid and reliable measurement tool is needed to evaluate nursing students' current patient safety knowledge, skills and attitudes and review the curriculum and learning objectives in this context. Design: This is a validation study with a cross-sectional design. Methods: The study sample consisted of 417 third and fourth-grade nursing students studying at two universities in Istanbul and volunteered to participate in the research. The study used the Turkish version of the Patient Safety Competency Self-Evaluation Tool was used for data collection. Content validity, construct validity, stability and reliability tests were performed. Data were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS programs. Ethics committee approval and permission from the institutions were obtained. Results: Nursing students' mean age was 21.98 (SD = 1.17). The Scope Validity Index of the scale was calculated as 0.97. As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis performed in the original structure consisting of three dimensions, 12 factors and 41 items, it was found that all items were in the sub-dimensions of the original scale and factor loads were between 0.168 and 0.918. Four models were tested in confirmatory factor analysis and Model 4 had the best-fit indices. They were calculated as: chi(2)/df = 2.38, RMSEA = 0.06 and CFI = 0.91 for Model 4. Cronbach's alpha value of the total scale was 0.941 and ranged between 0.642 and 0.932 in its sub-dimensions. Conclusion: The Turkish version of the Patient Safety Competency Self-Evaluation Tool is valid and reliable to measure nursing students' patient safety competencies.
