Hemşirelik ve Ebelik Öğrencilerinin Zaman Yönetimi, Öz Etkililik ve Akademik Başarı Düzeylerinin Birbirleri İle ve Çeşitli Değişkenlerle İlişkisi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, hemşirelik ve ebelik öğrencilerinin zaman yönetimi becerileri, öz-yeterlik ve akademik başarı ortalama düzeylerinin birbirleri ile ve çeşitli değişkenlerle arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipteki bu çalışmaya 459 hemşirelik ve ebelik öğrencisi katılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında “Öğrenci Bilgi Formu”, “Zaman Yönetimi Anketi” ve “Öz Etkililik Yeterlik Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı, t testi, ANOVA ve korelasyon analizi kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Öğrencilerin zaman yönetimi anketi puan ortalaması 90.45 ± 12.87 iken, öz etkililik yeterlik ölçeği ortalama puanı 86.69 ± 11.73 idi. Zaman yönetimi becerileri ile akademik başarı ortalamaları ve öz etkililik yeterlik düzeyleri arasında ve öz etkililik yeterlik düzeyleri ile akademik başarı ortalama puanları arasında pozitif korelasyon vardı. Ayrıca öğrencilerin boş zaman etkinliği yapma durumlarının zaman yönetimi anketi, öz etkililik yeterlik ve akademik başarı ortalama puanlarını etkilediği görülmüştür.
Sonular ve öneriler: Geleceğin profesyonelleri olan hemşire/ebelerin daha kaliteli hizmet verebilmek için zamanı iyi yönetebilmesi ve kendine güvenen adaylar olması gerekmektedir. Bu nedenle hemşirelik / ebelik öğrencilerinin bu özelliklerinin eğitim süresi boyunca değerlendirilmesi ve mesleki yaşamlarında sunacakları hizmet ve kalitenin artırılması için konu ile ilgili gerekli eğitim programlarının oluşturulmasına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
