Abstract

Amaç: Araştırmada hemşirelik öğrencilerinin COVID-19 fobilerinin yordayıcısı olarak, belirsizliğe karşı tahammülsüzlükleri ve sağlık anksiyetelerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Kesitsel tipteki araştırmanın veri toplama aşaması, Ocak-Mart 2021 tarihlerinde bir devlet üniversitesinin hemşirelik bölümü tüm sınıflarından 184 öğrencinin katılımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, “Öğrenci Tanıtım Formu”, “COVID-19 Fobisi Ölçeği”, “Belirsizliğe Karşı Tahammülsüzlük Ölçeği”, “Sağlık Anksiyetesi Ölçeği” ile toplanmıştır. Ölçek puanlarının artması sırasıyla; yüksek düzeyde koronofobiyi, belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlüğü ve sağlık anksiyetesini göstermektedir. Araştırmada bağımsız iki örneklem t testi (Independent t Test), One Way ANOVA, Pearson Korelasyonu ve yordayıcıların tespiti için Çoklu Doğrusal Regresyon analizleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada güven aralığı %95, istatistiksel olarak anlamlılık düzeyi p<0.05 olarak kabul edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Öğrencilerin genel COVID-19 fobisi puan ortalaması 6.39±18.11’dir. Sınıf arttıkça koronafobinin azaldığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca cinsiyeti kız olan, ilde yaşayan, akademik başarısı yüksek, geleceğe yönelik kariyer hedefi olan öğrenci hemşirelerin COVID-19 fobisi ölçek puanları daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0.05). En sık yaşanan kaygı; ölüm/hastalanma, ekonomi, klinikten uzak olma ve mesleki yetersizlik şeklinde sıralanmıştır. COVID-19 fobileri ile belirsizliğe karşı tahammülsüzlükleri ve sağlık anksiyeteleri arasında anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur (p<0.05). Araştırmada kullanılan ölçek/alt ölçeklerin, COVID-19 fobisi puanlarına ilişkin varyansın %53’ünü açıkladığı görülmüştür
(p<0.05, R2=0.53).
Sonuç: Öğrencilerin gereksinimlerinin tespit edilmesi, bunlara ilişkin danışmanlık yapılması, korku ve anksiyetelerini kontrol etmeleri hususunda desteklenmeleri, yönlendirilmeleri, terapi programlarının planlanması önerilmektedir.
