Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı yetişkin bireylerin Covid-19 hastalığı hakkındaki bilgi, tutum ve davranışları ile Covid-19 aşısı yaptırma durumlarının belirlenmesidir. Tanımlayıcı, kesitsel çalışma İzmir ili Bornova ilçesinde Nisan-Haziran 2021 tarihleri arasında yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın örneklemini araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden, 18 yaş ve üzeri 270 yetişkin birey oluşturmuştur. Veriler araştırmacılar tarafından konu ile ilgili literatür incelenerek oluşturulan anket formu ile toplanmıştır. Anket formu bireylerin sosyo-demografik özellikleri (sekiz soru), Covid-19'a yönelik bilgi (11 soru), tutum (altı soru) ve uygulamaları (sekiz soru) ile Covid-19 aşısı yaptırma durumlarını değerlendiren toplam 33 soru ve ifadeden oluşmaktadır. Araştırma kapsamına alınan kadınların yaş ortalaması 35.49±12.24, erkeklerin yaş ortalaması 38.79±12.83 olup, % 56.3’ü kadın, % 43.7’si erkektir. Araştırma sonucunda yetişkin bireylerin bilgiye yönelik ifadelerin tümünde % 90’nın üzerinde doğru bilgiye sahip oldukları tespit edilmiştir. Ancak bu oran, tutum ve davranışlar düzeyinde önemli ölçüde düşmektedir. Yetişkin bireylerin % 35.6’sı aşı yaptırmayı düşünmemektedir. Sonuç olarak yetişkin bireylerin Covid-19 konusunda bilgi düzeylerinin yeterli olduğu ancak bu bilginin tutum ve davranışlara yansımadığı saptanmıştır. Bu nedenle bireylerin Covid-19 hastalığına karşı doğru uygulamaları kullanmalarını teşvik edici girişimler gerçekleştirilmesi önerilmektedir.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of adult individuals about Covid-19 disease and their status of getting Covid-19 vaccine. A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in Bornova district of Izmir between April-June 2021. The sample of the study consisted of 270 adult individuals aged 18 and over who agreed to participate in the study. The data were collected by the researchers with a questionnaire form, which was created by examining the literature on the subject. The questionnaire consists of 33 questions and expressions evaluating the socio-demographic characteristics of individuals (eight questions), knowledge about Covid-19 (11 questions), attitudes (six questions) and practices (eight questions), and their status of getting Covid-19 vaccine. The mean age of the women included in the study was 35.49±12.24, the mean age of the men was 38.79±12.83, 56.3% of them were female and 43.7% of them were men. As a result of the research, it has been determined that adult individuals have more than 90% correct information in all statements about information. However, this rate drops substantially at the level of attitudes and behaviors. 35.6% of adult individuals do not think about getting vaccinated. As a result, it has been determined that the knowledge level of adult individuals about Covid-19 is sufficient, but this knowledge is not reflected in attitudes and behaviors. For this reason, it is recommended to take initiatives to encourage individuals to use the right practices against Covid-19 disease.
