    No full text
    Background: Earthquakes are among the most devastating disasters that cause health-care professionals to experience stress. However, it is not known which coping strategies earthquake survivor health-care professionals use. Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the coping strategies of health-care professionals continuing to work after the 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted at a university hospital in southern Türkiye between October 2023 and November 2023. The sample of the study consisted of 434 health-care professionals. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form and the Coping with Earthquake Stress Scale. The data were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: The findings of the study revealed that the strategies used by health-care professionals to cope with earthquake stress were positive reappraisal (12.24 ± 3.58), seeking social support (11.96 ± 2.71), and religious coping (10.30 ± 3.85). Positive reappraisal was higher among those who were living in individual tents/containers (p = .036) and received psychological support (p = .026); whereas, religious coping was higher among those who were living in individual tents/containers or at home (p = .001), did not have a first-degree relative loss (p = .016), and left the area immediately after the earthquake (p = .026). There was no significant difference between seeking social support and earthquake-related descriptive characteristics (p > .05). Conclusions: Positive reappraisal was found to be the coping strategy most used by health-care professionals after the 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye. In this sense, it is recommended to conduct experimental studies that strengthen strategies for coping with stress

    Today, the number of people fleeing conflicts, wars, human rights violations and difficult living conditions in their countries and seeking refuge in other countries is rapidly increasing all over the world. We witness the migration movements of people fleeing from countries such as Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen, and Eritrea and pursuing their right to live elsewhere. This necessitates the countries hosting refugees to adopt an integration approach towards the refugee population. This research aims to describe integration in refugee education, the inclusive education approach and the education policies and practices of the countries that host the highest number of refugees after the Syrian migration. Research data were collected through document analysis, one of the qualitative research techniques, and analyzed with descriptive analysis method. It is clear from the findings of the research that in countries where Syrians are concentrated, a truly holistic approach model is not applied in the education of refugee children and therefore presents serious problems in refugee education. As a result of the research, it is proposed to carry out studies that will describe the problems experienced in refugee education, solution proposals and educational practices of host states

    Çalışmada Punica granatum L. var. nana türüne ait tohumlar kullanılmıştır. Tohumlar kontrol grubu, 2 farklı katlama süresi (4℃, 15-30 gün), katlama (15 gün)+GA₃ ve katlama (15 gün)+Ca₂NO₃ (nanomateryal) olmak üzere 5 farklı uygulamanın ardından çıkış denemesine alınmıştır. Çıkış testinin tamamlanmasının ardından ilk fidan ölçümleri alınarak fidanlar saksılara şaşırtılmıştır. Şaşırtma sonrasında ise 14 gün ara ile fidan gelişiminin gözlemlenmesi amacı ile 3×3 (tekerrür×fidan) üzerinden toplamda 9 bitkiden fidan ölçümleri alınmıştır. Fidan özelliklerinin belirlenmesinde ise hayatta kalan fidan oranı, fidan boyu ve eni, bitki habitüsü, sürgün sayısı, sürgün uzunluğu, yaprak sayısı, yaprak uzunluğu, yaprak genişliği, yaprak alanı ve gövde çapı ölçümleri alınmış, toplam klorofil ve fotosentez içerikleri belirlenmiştir. Tüm ölçüm zamanlarının ortalama değerleri incelendiğinde 58.8 mm bitki boyu, 40.0 mm bitki eni, 16.3 mm yaprak eni, 4.9 mm yaprak genişliği, 102.5 mm² yaprak alanı, 25.3 mm sürgün uzunluğu, 19 adet sürgündeki yaprak sayısı ve 1.16 mm gövde çapı değeri ile en iyi gelişimi Ca₂NO₃ nanopriming uygulamasından elde edilmiştir. En yüksek klorofil (SPAD) içeriği ise 34.71 değeri ile 15 gün katlama uygulamasından saptanmıştır.In the study, seeds of Punica granatum var. nana species were used as material. Seeds were taken to emergence test after 5 different applications. Emergence test was continued for 100 days and mean emergence rate and mean emergence time data were obtained. After transplantation, in order to observe the seedling development at 14-day intervals, seedling measurements were taken from a total of 9 plants over 3×3 (replication×seedling). In determining the seedling characteristics, surviving seedling rate, seedling height and width, plant habitus, shoot number, shoot length, leaf number, leaf length, leaf width, leaf area and stem diameter measurements were taken and total chlorophyll and photosynthetic contents were also determined. When the average values of all measurement times were examined, it was observed that the best development was obtained from Ca₂NO₃ nanopriming treatment with 58.8 mm plant height, 40.03 mm plant width, 16.25 mm leaf length, 4.91 mm leaf width, 102.52 mm² leaf area, 25.3 mm shoot length, 19 leaf number on shoots and 1.16 mm stem diameter values. The highest chlorophyll (SPAD) content was obtained from 15 days stratification treatment with 34.71 value

    Doğum ve Kadın Sağlığı Hizmeti Sunan Profesyonellerde Kültürel Yeterlilik Düzeyi ile İş Tatmini Düzeyi Arasındaki İlişki

    No full text
    Giriş: Kültürel ve etnik açıdan farklı hastalara etkili bir bakımın sağlanması kültürel yeterliliği gerektirmektedir. Amaç: Bu çalışmada doğum ve kadın sağlığı kliniklerinde hizmet veren hemşire ve ebelerin kültürel yeterlilik düzeyleri ile iş tatmini düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu çalışma kesitsel tipte tasarlandı. Çalışmanın örneklemini doğumhane ve kadın sağlığı kliniklerinde çalışan toplam 92 ebe ve hemşire oluşturdu. Ölçüm araçları olarak ‘Sağlık Profesyonelleri Kültürel Yeterlilik Ölçeği’ ve ‘İş Tatmini Ölçeği’ kullanıldı. Bulgular: Katılımcıların çoğunun (%48,7) 18 - 30 yaş aralığında olduğu bulundu. %90,2’si hiç yurtdışında bulunmadığını ve %56,5’i yabancı bir dil bilmediğini ifade etti. Katılımcıların Sağlık Profesyonelleri Kültürel Yeterlilik Ölçeği ve İş Tatmini Ölçeği toplam puanları sırasıyla 53,27 ± 12,34 ve 17,84 ± 4,35 olarak bulundu. Sağlık Profesyonelleri Kültürel Yeterlilik Ölçeği ile İş Tatmini Ölçeği değişkeni arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki bulunmamıştır (p > 0.05). Sonuç: Doğum ve kadın sağlığı kliniklerinde çalışan ebe ve hemşirelerin kültürel yeterlilik düzeylerinin ölçek puanına oranla ortalamanın altında olduğu, iş tatmini düzeylerinin ortalamanın üzerinde olduğu tespit edildi. Yurtdışında bulunmuş olmanın kültürel yeterliliği artırdığı tespit edildi. Bununla birlikte kültürel yeterlilik ile iş tatmini arasında anlamlı ilişki bulunmadı. Okullarda akademik eğitimlerle, sağlık kurumlarında hizmet içi eğitimlerle kültürel yeterlilik konusunda güncel bir bilinç ve tutum geliştirilmesi önerilmektedir.Introduction: Providing effective care to culturally and ethnically diverse patients requires cultural competence. Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the cultural competence levels and job satisfaction levels of nurses and midwives serving in maternity and women's health clinics. Method: This study was designed as a cross-sectional study. A total of 92 midwives and nurses working in maternity and women's health clinics constituted the sample of the study. Health Professionals Cultural Competence Scale and Job Satisfaction Scale were used as measurement tools. Results: Most of the participants (48.7%) were between the ages of 18 - 30 years. 90.2% stated that they had never been abroad and 56.5% did not speak a foreign language. The mean total scores of the Cultural Competence Scale and Job Satisfaction Scale were 53.27 ± 12.34 and 17.84 ± 4.35, respectively. No statistically significant relationship was found between the Health Professionals Cultural Competence Scale and the Job Satisfaction Scale variable (p > 0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that the cultural competence levels of midwives and nurses working in maternity and women's health clinics were below average compared to the scale score, and their job satisfaction levels were above average. Having worked abroad was found to increase cultural competence. However, no significant relationship was found between cultural competence and job satisfaction. It is recommended to develop a current awareness and attitude about cultural competence through academic trainings in schools and in-service trainings in health institutions
