Özet

The aim of this study is to determine the knowledge, attitude, practice and factors affecting the emergency contraception of the students of Health School of Bitlis Eren University. This study was conducted by using the cross-sectional research model among analytical research models on Health School students studying at Bitlis Eren University during the fall semester of 2016-2017 academic year. The researchers applied the questionnaire to 398 (82.9%) out of 480 students studying in Health School of Bitlis Eren University during the fall semester of 2016-2017 academic year under observation. The data were analyzed by using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 16.0 package program. In the statistical evaluation, percent distributions and chi-square significance test were used and the value of p <0.05 was accepted as significant. 398 students from the departments of Nursing, Nutrition and Dietetic and Social Services at Health School participated in the study. It was found that 43.3% of the students included in the study were male and 56.7% were female. Mean age of the sample group was 21.1± 2.3. It was determined that 67.4% of the students stated that they did not hear any contraceptive method to use after an unprotected sexual intercourse. The level of knowing the emergency contraception in this group who was studying in Health School and would provide health service and guide people in future was very low. These methods can be integrated into national education programs, especially health and medical schools, family planning programs and emergency health services.
