    (2021) Yuksel, Arzu; Ay, Busra; Bahadir Yilmaz, Emel
    Aim: This cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the anxiety and nursing care satisfaction of the patients in internal medicine and surgical services. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted between January and March 2018 in the internal medicine and surgery clinics of a Training and Research Hospital in Turkey. Data were collected using the Patient Information Form, the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and the Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Scale (NSNS). Descriptive statistics, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis test were used in data analysis. Results: The mean total NSNS score was 57.06 ± 6.07, and the mean BAI score was 13.00 ± 12.91. The BAI and NSNS scores were negatively correlated (r = -0.239, p < 0.05). It was found that low anxiety scores were associated with being satisfied with patient-nurse communication, being satisfied with treatment, and care information and having a nuclear family (p < 0.05). NSNS scores were significantly correlated with family structure, patient-nurse communication, pre-treatment information, and satisfaction level at the time of discharge (p < 0.05). Conclusions: There is a negative correlation between the anxiety and nursing care satisfaction of the patients. This suggests that enhanced communication and attention, especially prior to any medical intervention, provides better feedback and improves patient satisfaction levels.

    The relationship between beliefs towards mental illness and psychological help-seeking attitudes of medical vocational high school students
    (2020) Yuksel, Arzu; Bahadir Yilmaz, Emel
    Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between beliefs towards mental illness and psychological help-seeking attitudes of medical vocational high school students. Material and Methods: The sample of this analytical study consisted of 364 students studying at a medical vocational high school from February 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019. Data were collected using Student Information Form, Belief towards Mental Illness Scale and Attitudes toward Seeking Psychological Help Scale-Shortened. Descriptive data were analyzed using Mann–Whitney U-test and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient test since data were not normally distributed.Results: The mean total Belief towards Mental Illness Scale score of the students was 50.08±17.32. The mean scores of subscales were 22.31±7.66 for dangerousness, 2.12±2.75 for embarrassment, and 50.08±17.32 for desperateness/poor social and interpersonal skills. The mean scores of positive and negative psychological help-seeking attitudes of the students were 46.79±10.51 and 21.33±5.92, respectively. Positive psychological help-seeking attitude was found to have a weak and negative correlation with dangerousness (r=0.131) and desperateness (r=0.107) subscales whereas a weak and positive correlation was observed with the embarrassment (r=0.202) subscale (p0.05). Negative psychological help-seeking attitudewas found to have a moderate and negative correlation with the total Belief towards Mental Illness Scale (r=0.328) scores, embarrassment (r=0.364) and desperateness (r=0.328) subscales whereas a weak and negative correlation was observed with the dangerousness (r=0.159) subscale (p0.05). Conclusion: This study has shown that beliefs of the medical vocational high school students towards mental illness are at a moderate level whereas their psychological help-seeking attitudes are high. Furthermore, students’ beliefs towards mental illness have been found to affect their psychological help-seeking attitudes. In line with these results, we believe that there is a need for studies that will improve students’ beliefs towards mental illness in a positive way.
