This study was conducted to determine the types, frequencies and the affecting factors of peer bullying among 6 th , 7 th , and 8 th grade students of secondary schools in a city center in Cappadocia. Materials and Methods: A total of 3.059 students were attending secondary schools in a city center and this study sample consists of 1.288 students. Prior to the study, approval from the ethical council and institute, as well as written consent from students and their families were obtained. Data were collected via individual information forms and the Traditional Peer Bullying scale by the researcher through face-to-face interviews and the data obtained were evaluated by chi-square, single, and multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: It was determined that the mean age of the students was 12.81±0.93 years, of them 51.7% were girls, 12.0% did bullying, 15.9% were exposed to bullying, 52.1% were exposed to verbal bullying, and 13.4% were exposed to physical bullying. Multiple logistic regression revealed that the most important factors affecting the bullying of other students were family structure, attitude towards school, and gender; those factors affecting exposure to bullying were attitude toward school, body mass index, and economical status. As the age of the students increased by one year, the likelihood of bullying increased by 1.2 times. Boys were bullied 1.5 times more than girls, and the students of separated parents were bullied 2.7 times more than those whose parents stayed together (p<0.05). Conclusion: As bullying within schools is an important problem, it may be advisable to take into account the factors affecting bullying (age, gender, economic situation, family structure, attitude toward school, etc.) when conducting studies to prevent bullying in schools.
Objective:This study aimed to determine the effect of the positive parenting program (Triple P) on child maltreatment, children's behaviors, and coping strategies of mothers.Materials and Methods:This study was the pretest-posttest quasiexperimental design. Secondary care state hospital located in the Cappadocia region between January and February 2016. This study was conducted with mothers (n: 138) of children aged between 4 and 12 years, 126 mothers were available to finish the study. Triple P was provided to the mothers in totally three sessions as once per a week. Mothers filled the scales and parent-child information form before the intervention and just after the intervention. Parent-child information form, child behavior checklist, and ways of coping inventory were administered to the mothers.Results:It was determined that after the training, mean scores obtained by the children from the subscales of anxiety, social problems, somatic complaints, attention problems, rule-breaking, and aggressive behaviors decreased (P < 0.05) and desperate approach and submissive approach mean scores of the mothers decreased (P < 0.001) whereas their social support mean scores increased (P < 0.05). In addition, the mothers, who stated that they were frequently looking angry (17.4%), yelling (24.6%), sometimes humiliating (27.7%) to their children, and injured their faces (6.3%) in the past 1 month, said that they did these behaviors to their children at lower rate at the end of the training (3.9%, 17.4%, 19.8%, and 0.0%, respectively).Conclusions:It was determined that Triple P was effective in reducing children's behavioral problems and improving mothers' strategies of coping with stress and contributed the reduction of emotional and physical abuse applied to children. It is recommended to ensure the continuity of these training programs.
Bu çalışma, Sağlık Yüksekokulu hemşirelik bölümü öğrencilerinin klinik uygulamaya çıkmadan önce kaygı düzeylerinin ve stresle başa çıkma tarzlarının belirlenmesi amacı ile tanımlayıcı ve ilişki arayıcı olarak yapılmıştır. Materyal-Method: Çalışma Şubat-Mart 2010 tarihleri arasında bir sağlık yüksekokulunda, klinik uygulamaya çıkacak olan 1. 2. ve 3. sınıf hemşirelik bölümü öğrencileri üzerinde yapılmıştır. Okulda öğrenim gören toplam öğrenci sayısının az olması nedeniyle (N=250), çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden öğrencilerin tümü (n:140) araştırma kapsamına alınmıştır. Veriler anket formu, Durumluluk Kaygı Envanteri (DKE) ve Stresle Başa Çıkma Tarzları Ölçeği (SBTÖ) kullanılarak toplanmış, tanımlayıcı istatistikler, Independent t, One Way ANOVA (Post hoc: Bonferroni), Mann Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis Varyans Analizi ve Pearson Korelasyon testleri ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmada öğrencilerin %82' sinin kız, %59'unun 18-20 yaş grubunda, %90'ının şehir dışından geldiği, %44'ünün arkadaşları ile birlikte evde kaldığı belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerden %59'u bölüme isteyerek geldiğini, %54'ü iş garantisi olduğu için bölümü tercih ettiğini, %83'ü mesleği sevdiğini ifade etmiştir. Öğrencilerin %82'si klinik uygulamaya çıkmadan önce genellikle hastane ortamına bağlı bilinmezlik, yanlış yapma ve sınıfta kalma korkusu nedeni ile gerginlik-sıkıntı yaşadıklarını ve %63'ü bu sorunlarla baş etmeye çalıştıklarını ifade etmişlerdir. Çalışmada, kız öğrencilerin kaygı puan ortalamaları 45,49±10,49, erkek öğrencilerin 40,00±12,35 olarak bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Ayrıca, kız öğrencilerin SBTÖ alt grup puan ortalamalarından çaresiz yaklaşım, erkek öğrencilerin ise iyimser yaklaşım puan ortalamalarının yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Sonuç:Öğrencilerin klinik uygulamalardan istenilen kazanımları sağlayabilmeleri için; klinik uygulamaya çıkmadan önce stres ve kaygı yaşama durumlarının belirlenerek baş etmelerinin güçlendirilmesi önerilmektedir.
