The present systematic review aimed to determine discrimination experiences of sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals and attitudes toward SGM among health care staff in health care settings. Following PRISMA guidelines, the review was conducted in 3 databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Science Direct) using keywords of sexual and gender minority, including “gay,” “lesbian,” “bisexual,” “transgender,” “LGB,” “LGBT,” “health care discrimination,” “stigma,” “homophobia,” “transphobia,” and “attitudes of healthcare professionals” from May to September 2016. Predetermined inclusion criteria were selected. Thirty quantitative studies were eligible for inclusion in this review. Discriminative behaviors experienced by SGM individuals were stigma, denial or refusal of health care, and verbal or physical abuse. Knowledge and educational levels, beliefs, and religion of health care providers affected their attitudes toward SGM patients and their homophobia level. These findings revealed that health care providers needed more education about SGM issues, and SGM-friendly policies should be created for improving health care for SGM individuals.

Tarih boyunca dans, toplumların kültürel ve sosyal yaşantısında önemli bir rol oynamış ve bir tür sanat ve eğlenceye dönüşmüştür. Kişinin bedeninin ve duygularının bütünleşmesini sağlayan dans, antik çağlardan beri bir sağaltım yöntemi olarak kullanılmaktadır. Kişinin bedenini kullanarak kendini ifade etmesini sağlayan dans, terapi için güçlü bir araçtır. Kişinin duygusal, bilişsel, fiziksel ve sosyal bütünlüğünü güçlendirmek için hareketin terapötik kullanımını temel alan dans ve hareket terapisi ise 1940'lı yılların sonundan itibaren farklı hasta ve hastalık gruplarında sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Bu makalede, sağlık çalışanlarının dans ve hareket terapisinin etkileri ve farklı hasta gruplarında kullanımı hakkında literatür doğrultusunda bilgilendirilmesi ve ruhsal hastalıklarda beden zihin odaklı girişimlerin geliştirilmesine katkı sağlaması amaçlanmıştır.
Background
People who are compassionate to both themselves and others want to alleviate their experiences of pain and those of others.
Aims
This study aims to evaluate the predictive effect of self‐compassion on relationship satisfaction and conflict resolution styles in romantic relationships in nursing students.
Methods
The sample of this study consists of 356 nursing students. The data are collected by using the Self‐Compassion Scale, the Conflict Resolution Styles Scale in Romantic Relationships, and the Relationship Satisfaction Scale. A linear regression model is used to test the predictive effect of self‐compassion on relationship satisfaction and conflict resolution styles in nursing students.
Results
Mean age of the participant is 20.70 ± 1.90, 68.5% (n = 244) of the nursing students are female, and 33.2% of them (n = 211) are male. Self‐compassion is found to be a significant predictor of both relationship satisfaction and conflict resolution styles (positive conflict resolution, negative conflict resolution, and retreat) in romantic relationships (p < .05).
Conclusion
Self‐compassion is an important factor in relationship satisfaction and conflict resolution. These results of the study can be used to address conflict resolution problems in romantic relationships and further research.
