Öğe Development study of 2-5 age Technology Addiction Scale (TAS)(W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2023) Yildirim, Maksude; Yayan, Emriye HilalPurpose: Although it is known that technology use increases in early childhood, no measurement tool has been found to examine technology addictions in children in this period. In this study, the development and validation process of the Technology Addiction Scale (TAS), which can be used to evaluate the technology addiction of children 2-5 years, is described. Design: The sample of the study consists of 308 children 2-5 years living in one of the big cities of Turkey. Methods: Item-total correlation coefficients, Cronbach Alpha reliability analyzes, explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses, and normality analyzes were used in the evaluation of the research data. Findings: As a result of the analyzes made, the validity and reliability of the 9-item 2-factor (impulsiveness and implicit attitude) TAS scale have been proven. The Cronbach alpha value of the impulsiveness factor was calculated as 0.865, the Cronbach alpha value of the implicit attitude factor was calculated as 0.840, and the total Cronbach alpha value of the scale was 0.90. These Cronbach alpha values show an acceptable level of reliability. Conclusions: According to the results of the validity and reliability analyzes, it can be said that TAS can be used as a reliable scale.Öğe Effect of Neonatal Nurses' Attitudes to Death on Palliative Care(Galenos Publ House, 2021) Sulun, Ayse Aricioglu; Yayan, Emriye Hilal; Yildirim, MaksudeIntroduction: Neonatal palliative care is administered with compassion to minimize the suffering of the newborn and its family. Neonatal intensive care nurses are unable to provide adequate care to the patient by developing an attitude towards death and are able to experience a sense of failure. There is insufficient knowledge and experience about neonatal nurses' responses to death and the effect of these responses on applied palliative care. Based on these data, this study was conducted to determine the status of neonatal intensive care nurses' attitudes towards death affecting their palliative care.Methods: The sample of our research consists of five provinces selected by simple random sampling method. Ninety-six neonatal nurses participated in the study. The research data were collected using the neonatal palliative care attitude scale (NPAS), death attitude scale (DAS) and introductory features form prepared by the researcher. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, t-test, Kruskal-Wallis test were used to evaluate continuous and counting variables.Results: As a result of the correlation analysis, there was a low negative correlation between the total score of NPAS and the total score of DAS and between the sub-dimension of NPAS organization and the sub-dimension of DAS escape acceptance. There is a significant relationship between nurses' palliative care practices and their marital status, infant loss status and diversity of institutions. Conclusion: There is a low association between the sub-dimension of escape acceptance associated with death related to neonatal palliative care and the sub-dimension of organization (r=-0.225). This result can be interpreted as nurses have difficulty in giving palliative care to babies when they develop a negative attitude towards death. The remarkable aspect of this finding is that the participants in our study were nurses working in the neonatal intensive care, which is a specific unit.Öğe The effect of therapeutic touch and music rest on sleep parameters in children with liver transplantation(Elsevier Science Inc, 2023) Yildirim, Maksude; Yayan, Emriye HilalPurpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of therapeutic touch and music rest on the sleep of children with liver transplantation.Design and methods: The data of the study were collected between February 2021 and November 2021. The study was completed with 50 patients included in the therapeutic touch and music rest groups. Therapeutic touch and music practices were applied for three consecutive days, once a day and 20 min. Before and after the practices, the 24-h sleep of the children was evaluated with actigraphy.Results: It was determined that the time in bed, total sleep time, and sleep efficiency of the children in the ther-apeutic touch group increased after the procedure. On the other hand, it was determined that the time in bed, and total sleep time increased, and the onset latency decreased after the procedure in the children in the music rest group. It was determined that the effects of therapeutic touch and music rest applications on sleep parameters after the procedure were similar.Conclusion: It has been determined that therapeutic touch and music rest applications have an improving effect on the sleep of children with liver transplantation.Practice implications: Music rest and therapeutic touch, which are non-pharmacological methods that do not in-crease the burden of the liver, can be used by health professionals to support the sleep of children with liver transplantation.& COPY; 2022 Elsevier Inc.

Design and methods: The design and methods included a descriptive study with 141 parents of children with hematological problems. The introductory information form, the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI), multidimensional scale of perceived social support (MSPSS), and the EUROHIS-QOL.8 (WHOQOL-8) scale were used as data collection tools. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics and structural equation models. Results: As a result of the conducted correlation analysis, it was determined that there was a positive correlation between parents' perceptions of social support and their quality of life, and a negative correlation between their perceptions of social support and the caregiver burden (p < 0.05). As a result of the structural equation model, it was determined that the social support received by the parents had a significant effect on their caregiver burden (beta = -0.40; p < 0.05), and their quality of life (beta = 0.42; p < 0.05). Conclusions: The conclusion formed was that it can be said that parents' perceptions of social support affect their caregiver burden and quality of life. Parents with high perceptions of social support perceive the burden of caregiver to be low and their quality of life to be high. Practice implications: The practice implications are that healthcare professionals can contribute to reducing the caregiver burden and improving the quality of life of parents, by strengthening the social support systems of parents with sick children.
