Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırma hemşirelik öğrencilerinde akademik yazmaya yönelik yetkinlik düzeyleri ile akademik okuryazarlık arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapıldı.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmanın verileri, 15 Ocak 2023 – 15 Mart 2023 tarihleri arasında toplandı. Bu araştırmanın evrenini bir devlet üniversitesinin hemşirelik fakültesinde okuyan 505 lisans, yüksek lisans ve doktora öğrencisi oluşturdu. Verilerin toplanmasında tanıtıcı bilgi formu, akademik yazmaya yönelik yetkinlik ölçeği, akademik okuryazarlık ölçeği kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Öğrencilerin %74,4’ünün 18-24 yaş aralığında olduğu, %66,6’sının kadın olduğu, %92,5’inin daha önce yazma konusunda eğitim almadığı, %55’inin daha önce İngilizce eğitimi almadığı, %76,2’sinin ayda bir kitap okuduğu bulundu. Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin Akademik Yazmaya Yönelik Yetkinlik Ölçeği puan ortalaması 3.24±.786, Akademik Okuryazarlık Ölçeği puan ortalaması 3.60 ±.433 olarak bulundu. Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin Akademik Yazmaya Yönelik Yetkinlik puanları ile Akademik Okuryazarlık puan ortalamaları arasında pozitif yönde orta düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki bulundu (p<0.001).
Sonuç: Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin akademik yazma yetkinlikleri ile akademik okuryazarlık arasında pozitif yönde orta düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki bulundu. Hemşirelik öğrencilerin eğitimleri süresince ve sonrasında akademik yazma ve akademik okuryazarlık yeterliliklerinin artırılması, hemşirelik müfredatlarında bu konulara yer verilmesi önerilmektedir.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between academic writing competency and academic literacy levels among nursing students.
Methods: Data were collected between January 15 and March 15, 2023. The study population consisted of 505 undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral nursing students enrolled at the Faculty of Nursing of a state university. Data were gathered using a demographic information form, the Academic Writing Competency Scale, and the Academic Literacy Scale. Descriptive statistics and correlation analysis were performed using SPSS 26.0.
Results: Among the participants, 74.4% were aged 18–24 years, 66.6% were female, 92.5% had not received prior academic writing training, 55% had no formal English education, and 76.2% reported reading books once per month. The mean score for the Academic Writing Competency Scale was 3.24 (SD=0.786), while the mean score for the Academic Literacy Scale was 3.60 (SD=0.433). A moderate positive correlation was identified between academic writing competency and academic literacy (r=0.617, p<0.001).
Conclusion: The findings demonstrate a statistically significant moderate positive association between academic writing competency and academic literacy among nursing students. It is recommended that nursing curricula incorporate targeted interventions to enhance students’ academic writing and literacy skills, which are critical for evidence-based practice and professional development.
