Conference Object Psychometrics of Flodén Attitudes Toward Organ Donor Advocacy Instrument in Turkish: a Scale Adaptation Study Among Intensive Care Unit Nurses(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2024) Floden, Anne Charlotte; Utku, Tughan; Kiraner, Ebru; Yayik, Aycan Kelez; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci[No Abstract Available]Conference Object A Review on Investigating the Effect of Consent Systems on Organ Donation Rates(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2024) Seren, Arzu Harmanci[No Abstract Available]Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 21The Earthquakes in Turkey and Their Effects on Nursing and Community Health(Wiley, 2023) Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Dikec, GuelBackgroundSevere damage was experienced in 10 provinces in Turkey, and the north of Syria, with the earthquakes that hit Kahramanmaras at midnight and afternoon on February 6, 2023. AimThe authors aimed to give brief information to the international nursing community about the situation related to earthquakes in the aspects of nurses. ConclusionThese earthquakes caused traumatic processes in the affected regions. Many people, including nurses and other healthcare professionals, died or were injured. The results demonstrated that the required preparedness had not been applied. Nurses went to these areas voluntarily or on assignment and cared for individuals with injured. The universities in the country passed to distance education because of the shortage of safe places for victims. This situation also negatively influenced nursing education and clinical practice by interrupting in-person education one more time after the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications for nursing and nursing policySince the outcomes show a need for well-organized health and nursing care, policymakers may consider getting nurses' contributions to the disaster preparedness and management policy-making processes.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Nurse Unemployment in the Country Which Has Nursing Shortage: Investigation of the Reasons in the Aspect of Nurses(Informa UK Ltd, 2024) Soydaş, K.; Harmancı Seren, A.K.Turkey is the country which has serious nursing shortage.

Method: The data of this descriptive and relationship-seeking study were collected with the participation of 191 nurses working in a training and research hospital in İstanbul between December 2016 and February 2017. Research data was collected through a questionnaire aimed at learning participants' personal information, Turnover Intention Scale and Compulsory Citizenship Behavior Scale. Data was analyzed on a computer. Descriptive statistics, parametric and non-parametric comparison analyze and Pearson correlation analyzes were performed. Results: Point averages of the nurses between “Turnover Intention Scale” and “Compulsory Citizenship Behavior Scale” were 2.90 (SD=1.11) and 3.42 (SD=0.90) respectively. The correlation coefficient for the relationship between the intention to quit the job and compulsory citizenship behavior was found to be r=0.315 (p<0.001). Conclusion: It has been determined that nurses have the intention to leave the job below the medium level, they exhibit compulsory citizenship behavior at the above medium level, and there is a positive, medium strength and very significant linear relationship between the intention to leave the job and the compulsory citizenship behaviour. © 2024 The Authors.Article Investigating Nurses and Nurse Managers Experiences During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Phenomenological Study(2024) Bacaksız, Feride Eşkin; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmancı; Güngör, Serkan; Bilgin, Osman; Baykal, Ülkü; Alan, HandanGiriş: Türkiye, ‹1.000 kişiye düşen hemşire sayısı› açısından OECD ülkeleri arasında sonuncuya yakın sırada yer almaktadır. Hemşireler ve hemşire yöneticiler zaten pandemi öncesi normal dönemlerde zor şartlar altında özveriyle hizmet veriyorlardı ve bu pandemi döneminde daha da zorlaştı. Bu nedenle hemşirelerin ve hemşire yöneticilerin pandemi sürecindeki deneyimlerinin araştırılması gelecekteki olası pandemilere karşı hemşirelik bakımında iyileştirme yapılması açısından önemlidir. Amaç: Bu çalışma, hemşirelerin ve hemşire yöneticilerin COVID-19 pandemisi sırasındaki deneyimlerini araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Yöntem: Araştırmada fenomenolojik nitel yaklaşım kullanılmıştır. Örneklemi, COVID-19 pandemisi sırasında çalışan 14 yönetici hemşire ve 14 hemşire oluşturmuştur. Veriler, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılarak sesli ve görüntülü görüşme yapılarak çevrimiçi olarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular, nitel araştırmaları raporlamak için birleştirilmiş kriterlere dayalı olarak rapor edilmiştir. Bulgular: Verilerin analizinin ardından, Türkiye’deki hemşire yönetici ve hemşirelerin COVID-19 zorluklarına ve deneyimlerine yönelik tutumları üç temaya ayrılmıştır: “İletişim ve İş birliği”, “Eğitim/Gelişim” ve “Çalışma Koşulları/Çevre”. Sonuç: Araştırma, hemşire yöneticilerin iletişimi kolaylaştırmak, hemşirelerin eğitim ve gelişim ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak ve personel hemşirelerin çalışma koşullarını iyileştirmek için büyük çaba sarf ettiği sonucuna varmıştır. Araştırma ayrıca, hemşire yöneticilerin hassas ve samimi yaklaşımlarının hemşirelerin dayanıklılığını artırdığını buldu. Hemşire yöneticilerin yönetim becerileri ve hemşirelerin pandemi sürecindeki deneyimleri, gelecekte ortaya çıkabilecek pandemi ve benzeri afetler in etkili bir şekilde yönetilmesi için değerli bilgiler ve kanıtlar sunmaktadır.Conference Object A Review on Investigating the Effect of Consent Systems on Organ Donation Rates(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2024) Seren, Arzu Harmanci[No Abstract Available]Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 8The Relationship Between Critical Thinking and Job Performance Among Nurses: a Descriptive Survey Study(Wiley, 2023) Ates, Nimet; Erdal, Nurgul; Seren, Arzu Kader HarmanciAimThis study investigated the relationship between nurses' critical thinking skills and job performance and whether critical thinking and its subdomains predict job performance. BackgroundIt is expected that nurses may use critical thinking skills to provide evidence-based quality patient care in health care settings. However, there is limited evidence about whether critical thinking is related to job performance among nurses. DesignThis was a descriptive, cross-sectional survey study. MethodsThe study included 368 nurses working in the inpatient wards of a university hospital in Turkey. The survey included a demographic information questionnaire, the Critical Thinking Scale in Clinical Practice for Nurses and the Nurses' Job Performance Scale. The collected data were analysed using descriptive statistics, comparisons, reliability and normality tests, correlation and regression analysis. ResultsParticipating nurses got average scores from the critical thinking and job performance scale and sub-scales, and there was a positive, mid-level and statistically significant correlation between the scale scores. According to the multiple linear regression analysis results, personal critical thinking, interpersonal and self-management critical thinking and the total critical thinking scores positively affected the job performance scores of nurses. ConclusionAs critical thinking predicts nurses' job performance, managers of hospitals and nursing services should consider training programs or activities to increase nurses' essential thinking competencies, thus improving clinical nurses' performances.Article The Effect of Compulsory Citizenship Behaviors on Subjective Vitality Among Nurses(Wiley, 2025) Elibol, Esengul; Yildiz, Bora; Seren, Arzu Kader HarmanciAim The study aims to assess the extent of compulsory citizenship behaviors (CCBs) and their impact on the nurses' subjective vitality based on self-determination theory. Background CCBs are harmful to both nurses and organizations. These behaviors mean employees are expected to perform additional tasks outside their job descriptions. Although CCBs are highlighted within the recent nursing literature, empirical evidence of their effects is lacking. Methods This is descriptive cross-sectional research. The study included 244 staff nurses using a convenience sampling method who worked in two hospitals in Istanbul. Data were collected via a survey consisting of a personal information form, the compulsory citizenship scale, and the subjective vitality scale. STROBE guidelines were followed when reporting the study. Descriptive statistical analyses, independent samples t-test, one-way ANOVA test, Pearson's correlation, and hierarchical simple linear regression analyses were used. Results The participants' mean scores for compulsory citizenship and subjective vitality were 3.34 out of 5 (SD = 1.05) and 4.15 out of 7 (SD = 1.36), respectively. Nurses' compulsory citizenship scores significantly differed according to their education level, income, and sector. Their subjective vitality scores statistically differed according to their income levels. Regression analysis revealed that CCBs were significant negative predictors of subjective vitality (beta = -0.22, p < 0.01). Conclusion By examining the CCBs and subjective vitality relationship, the current study extended the existing knowledge by drawing attention to the destructive and harmful effects of CCBs on positive psychological sources of nurses' subjective vitality. CCBs negatively predicted subjective vitality. Clinical Relevance Organizational factors such as CCBs, which leads to a lack of autonomy, affect nurses' well-being, thus affecting care quality and patient safety. As the International Council of Nurses mentioned, "Nurses cope with many physical, mental, emotional, and ethical challenges. It is essential that we address these challenges in a way that supports their overall health". In this regard, managers and policymakers in hospitals should develop preventive cautions for CCBs. However, in-service training activities should be carried out to increase awareness about the harmful effects of CCBs on nurses' psychological well-being.
