Abstract
Tanımlayıcı nitelikteki araştırma, üniversite öğrencilerinin AIDS hakkında bilgi ve tutumunu değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini Eğitim, İlahiyat, Sağlık Bilimleri, Mühendislik, Hukuk, Spor Bilimleri, Eczacılık, İktisadi ve İdari Bilimler Fakültelerinde Ekim 2021 –Mart 2022 tarihleri arasında öğrenim gören 9270 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Araştırma örneklemini 1381 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veriler, tanımlayıcı bilgi formu ve AIDS Bilgi ve Tutum Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan öğrencilerin %62.9’u kadın, %70.4’ü 18-21 yaş aralığında olup %87.8’sinin AIDS hakkında eğitim almadığı belirlenmiştir. AIDS bilgi ölçeği puan ortalamasının 55.82±10.82 olduğu, AIDS tutum ölçeği puan ortalamasının 8.69±4.83 olduğu saptanmıştır. Katılımcıların, cinsiyet, yaş, fakülte, sınıf düzeyi, AIDS hakkında eğitim alma ile AIDS bilgi puanı arasında, cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeyi ile de AIDS tutum ölçeği arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0.05). Öğrencilerin AIDS'e yönelik bilgi düzeylerinin düşük düzeyde ve AIDS'e yönelik tutumlarının olumlu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Konuyla ilgili olarak eğitim müfredatlarında cinsel sağlık veya bulaşıcı hastalıklara yönelik derslerin entegre edilmesi önerilir.

The mean score of the AIDS Information Scale was 55.82 ± 10.82, and the average of the AIDS attitude scale was 8.69 ± 4.83. Participants have a significant relationship between gender, faculty, class level, training about AIDS and AIDS information score, gender and class level and AIDS attitude scale (p<0.05). It was determined that students' knowledge levels about AIDS were low and their attitudes towards AIDS were positive. It is recommended to integrate courses on sexual health or infectious diseases in the education curricula.
