“…Some saw a part of these men to favor a more traditional interpretation of masculinity, which has been found to be common for example in Turkey [69], and which is connected to a tendency to reject psychotherapy [70]. On the other hand, the availability of insurance-covered psychotherapy is special to Germany [71] and not common in Turkey [72]; unfamiliarity with the method may contribute to the skepticism against it. The importance of motherhood the HCPs observed in migrant women was regarded as a minor challenge, illustrating how persons from different cultures may evaluate the same piece of health information differently based on the relevance it has to their lives.…”

Health literacy can be described as a complex process shaped by individual resources and preferences and by the nature and quality of health-related information people encounter. The main objective of this study was to explore the views of health care professionals on how gender as a personal determinant of health literacy affected their interactions with migrant patients. The interrelated challenges, needs and applied solutions were analyzed from a health literacy perspective. Five focus group discussions with health care professionals working with migrants (n = 31) were conducted in Cologne, Germany, audio recorded, transcribed and analyzed by qualitative content analysis. Gender-specific aspects, such as the gender of health care providers as a factor, were portrayed above all in relation to patients from Turkey and Arab countries regarding access to and understanding of health-related information. These statements exclusively represent the possibly biased or assumptions-based perspectives of health care professionals on their migrant patients and were made against the background of a systemic lack of time and the challenge of overcoming language barriers. Especially in this context, reducing time pressure and improving communication in the treatment setting may be to the benefit of all actors within healthcare.

“…The findings of another research also expressed that the students weren’t contented with the consultant professors’ presented consultation and guidance ( 27 ). The results of a research in the Medical Science University of Isfahan also suggested that merely a third of the students were satisfied with their consultant teachers and only 35% of them were contented with their consultant professors’ information adequacy on the School educational and disciplinary rules ( 13 ). To explain these results, it can be claimed that the process of consultant teachers, despite the emphasis on the educational system and the related codes suffer from not being implemented and it has neither been whole heartedly welcomed by the students nor by the consultant teachers and the students are not aware of the consultant professors’ educational and non-educational duties and on the other hand, the teachers aren’t informed about their duties of consultation and this makes achieving the goal, that is, to support and guide the students difficult.…”

Cochran formula was used to determine the sample size. Two questionnaires have been employed to collect the data in order to assess the students’ perspective on the consultants’ performance’s current and optimum status. To determine the validity, content and face validity have been used and the reliability was defined through Alpha-Cronbach coefficient and that of the current status was calculated as 0.925 and the optimum condition as 0.925. To analyze the data from the non-parametric binomial test, Wilcoxon and Kruskal-Wallis tests were applied.Results:a meaningful difference has been found between the optimum stats of the consultants’ performance. So that, 15 % has been considered inappropriate and 85% appropriate. Given the performance of the consultants, there is a critical difference. There is a meaningful difference between the current and optimum performance of the consultants, so that the mean rating status (178.43) is higher than that of the current status (90.69).
