Design A single-blind, two-arm, parallel-group randomized controlled trial. Methods Conducted with 70 students at a foundation university in Istanbul (2024-2025). The intervention group received two weeks structured training. Data were collected using the Perception of Gender Scale (PGS) and Gender Roles Attitude Scale (GRAS). Results No significant differences were observed at baseline. Post-intervention, the intervention group showed significant improvements in PGS and GRAS scores, while no change was found in the control group. Conclusion Short-term gender equality education program effectively improved students' gender perceptions and attitudes.Article 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.

Methods: The study sample consisted of 400 nursing students studying at one public and one private university. The research was conducted between April and May 2023. The data were collected using a Sociodemographic Form, University Students Disaster Risk Perception Scale (USDRPS), and Sustainable Earthquake Awareness Scale (SEAS). Data were collected online using a questionnaire created on Google Forms. Analyses included frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation values, independent groups t-test, post-hoc Tukey test, LSD, and ANOVA test. Results: Of the students, 61.8% had a disaster experience, 17.4% had lost a relative in the disaster, and 76.8% did not consider themselves prepared for a possible disaster. In the study, the exposure sub-dimension score of the disaster risk perception scale was found to be higher in students who had disaster experience than in those who did not (p = 0.032). Nursing students from the private university had higher sustainable earthquake awareness scores than those studying at the state university (p = 0.001). The mean scores of female students on the earthquake preparedness and preparation application sub-dimensions showed a significant difference compared to the scores of male students (p = 0.016). In the study, sustainable earthquake awareness total and earthquake preparedness sub-dimension scores were higher in second-year nursing students than in students of other years (p = 0.042; 0.015). Those who had received disaster training had low scores on the uncontrollable sub-dimension of the disaster risk perception scale, and high scores on the total SEAS and earthquake-structure relationship, earthquake preparedness, and earthquake preparation application sub-dimensions (p < 0.05). Conclusions: In the study, three out of four students did not find themselves prepared for disasters. Those who had disaster experience had higher disaster risk perceptions. Students who had received disaster-related training had more positive earthquake preparedness, earthquake-structure relationship, and earthquake preparation applications than those who had not. Students who were female and were in the second year had higher earthquake awareness. Studies can be carried out to inform people about the pre-disaster and preparation stages to raise awareness about disasters at universities. Education on disaster management can be integrated into courses from the first years of university.Article Citation - WoS: 1Problems and Insights on Space: the Effects of Phenomenology Theory on the Concept of Space(Yildiz Technical Univ, Fac Architecture, 2020) Ulubay, Serhat; Onal, FerideThis study was an examination of a change in the means and manner of comprehension of the concept of space and the questions it stimulated as a result of the emergence and development of phenomenology theory in the last century. Phenomenology theory is based on the argument that our understanding of phenomena is related to our consciousness and promotes a different and deeper form of comprehension by asking questions about the essence of existence. The movement grew in the early 20th century, and challenged the dominant view of rational reality and Cartesian assumptions. Phenomenology encourages questioning what has been defined as concrete and immutable, arguing that phenomena can be grasped through internal experience rather than simply visible physical appearance and predefined ideas. According to this new concept, all of our acquisitions we call "experience" help us make sense of phenomena. Science makes its inquiries based on adopted and accepted experiences about the world. However, the phenomenological approach suggests that all adopted data, including the fundamentals of science, should also be questioned. The essential objective of the phenomenological philosophy is the extension of the field of questioning to explore the essence of facts and primary phenomena. This radical questioning deeply affected and altered the intellectual agenda of the time. Philosophers discussed and examined the intrinic meaning of many phenomena. The concept of space lends itself to this new kind of assessment. Phenomenology theory, which aims to contribute to the base of scientific knowledge and to increase the critical foundations of philosophy, opened the prevailing semantics of space perceived as an object defined with rational boundaries and mathematical assumptions to discussion. Phenomenological opinion, contrary to the Cartesian way of thinking, argues that space cannot be deliniated by the patterns of a single reality and that an infinite number of descriptors that we discover through our acts and experiences can be applied. This vision of space is discovered through all of our direct life experiences and queries of all realms, including the social and cultural arenas, psychology and the human body, ideas of the self and the question of existence, as well as hard science. Different methodologies applied by philosophers of the phenomenology school of thought diversified the basis of questioning and definition, and thereby enriched the concept of space. This study examines the methods of reading and questioning the definition of space used by phenomenological theorists and the contributions this interpretation brought to the conceptualization of space. The critical approach of the Cartesian way of thinking was compared and contrasted with the phenomenological view. All of the acquisitions and dynamics of life are in a state of constant change. The structure of societies, the way they comprehend the world, cultural and individual mental acts are not fixed like a photograph pausing a moment. A Cartesian view considers space to be a static and frozen object. A primary contribution of phenomenology to the intellectual environment of the last century was to encourage exploration of the fact that the mode of questioning has no boundaries, that the accepted realities cannot constitute the only starting point of our questioning. In addition, it reminded us that all our social and individual experiences are a means to grasp and comprehend the concept of space. We exist in this world through our thoughts, perceptions, memory, and body; therefore, we can comprehend phenomena, including space, via all of our life experience. This study examined how the idea of space has been shaped over time, focusing on the principles of phenomenological questioning and sixteen theorists considered pioneers of this way of thinking. The questioning put forward by phenomenology changes kinetically, and it is possible that such theories of the evaluation of space can be a tool for the diversification of today's thought on the subject and the discovery of news ideas of space.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Psychometric Properties of the Quality Nursing Care Scale-Turkish Version: a Methodological Study(Bmc, 2022) Karaca, Anita; Kaya, Leyla; Kaya, Gizem; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Harmanci Seren, Arzu KaderAimTo analyze the psychometric properties of the Quality Nursing Care Scale in Turkish Language. Background: The quality of health services and nursing care effectively improves safe patient outcomes and reduces costs in healthcare organizations. There is a need for valid and reliable tools in order to use for evaluating the quality of nursing care. Methods: The methodological and cross-sectional study included 225 nurses working in a research and training hospital. Content validity, construct validity, item analysis, and internal consistency analysis were used. Results: The content validity index of the scale was 0.96. The item-total score correlation values of the items were 0.72 and higher. The factor loads of the items ranged from 0.42 to 0.90. Different from the original scale, Turkish form consisted of three sub-dimensions. The fit indices were acceptable or very good. The Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient was 0.99. Conclusion: The Quality Nursing Care Scale was valid and reliable with its three-factor structure in Turkish Language. It may be used for measuring the quality of care in the aspects of nurses.
