dc.description.abstractIntroduction: It is commonly accepted that educational stress affects students' academic achievement, self-esteem, and coping efficacy, which can lead to changes in physiological and psychological health. Nursing students experience greater stress related to the intensity and complexity of nursing programs, including academic, clinical, and personal stressors than students in other health-related fields. Aim: To investigate undergraduate nursing students’ stress levels and factors affecting these during their education. Materials and methods: This was a descriptive and cross-sectional study involving 319 students. A Sociodemographic Characteristics Form and the Student Nurse Stress Index (SNSI) were used for data collection. The Cronbach alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.86. Results: Of the participants, 26.6% were in the third year of study, 67.4% were female and 55.5% of the students thought of themselves as moderately successful academically. The overall SNSI mean score was 43.85±10.58 (min=15, max=75). According to the analysis, there was a statistically significant difference between some of the students’ sociodemographic features and the Student Nurse Stress Index mean scores. The students' academic year was directly associated with stress levels (p < 0.05). The academic load was the most common source of stress reported by students. Conclusion and suggestions: It was found that the stress levels of the senior students were higher than those of other students. Nursing students' mental health must be protected to continue to provide adequate care and treatment to patients. Stress management interventions should be provided, especially in the final year of study, when the students experience the most intense stress.
dc.description.abstractGiris: Egitim ile iliskili stresin ögrencilerin akademik basarisini, benlik saygisini ve bas etme yeterliligini etkiledigi, bunun da fizyolojik ve psikolojik saglikta degisikliklere yol açabilecegi yaygin olarak kabul edilmektedir. Hemsirelik ögrencileri; akademik, klinik ve kisisel stres faktörleri dahil olmak üzere hemsirelik programlarinin yogunlugu ve karmasikligi ile ilgili diger saglikla ilgili alanlardaki ögrencilere göre daha fazla stres yasamaktadirlar. Amaç: Lisans hemsirelik ögrencilerinin stres düzeylerini ve bunlari etkileyen faktörleri arastirmaktir. Gereç ve yöntem: Bu arastirma 319 ögrenciyi kapsayan tanimlayici ve kesitsel bir çalismadir. Verilerin toplanmasinda Sosyodemografik Özellikler Formu ve Ögrenci Hemsire Stres Indeksi (SNSI) kullanilmistir. Ölçegin Cronbach alfa katsayisi 0.86’dir. Bulgular: Katilimcilarin %26,6'si üçüncü sinif, %67.4'ü kadin ve %55.5'i akademik olarak orta düzeyde basarili oldugunu düsünmektedir. Genel SNSI ortalama puani 43.85±10.58’dir. Yapilan analizlerde ögrencilerin bazi sosyodemografik özellikleri ile Ögrenci Hemsire Stres Indeksi puan ortalamalari arasinda istatistiksel olarak anlamli bir fark bulunmustur. Ögrencilerin bulunduklari sinifin stres düzeyleri ile dogrudan iliskili oldugu saptanmistir (p < 0.05). Ögrenciler tarafindan bildirilen en yaygin stres kaynaginin akademik yük oldugu bulunmustur. Sonuç ve öneriler: Arastirma sonucunda son sinif ögrencilerinin stres düzeylerinin diger ögrencilere göre daha yüksek oldugu saptanmistir. Hastalara yeterli bakim ve tedavinin saglanmasi açisindan hemsirelik ögrencilerinin ruh sagliginin korunmasi önemlidir. Özellikle ögrencilerin yogun stres yasadigi son sinifta stres yönetimi ile ilgili girisimlerin planlanmasi önerilmektedir.
