Publication The effect of parent-child communication on self-protection skills at pre-schoolers: The body safety training interventions in Turkey(Anadolu Üniversitesi, 2021-06-01) Tunç, Gülseren Çıtak; Sezgin, Elif Yalçıntaş; Ulus, Leyla; ÇITAK TUNÇ, GÜLSEREN; Sezgin, Elif Yalçıntaş; Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; Çocuk Gelişimi Bölümü; ADO-4343-2022; GAA-8537-2022Objective: Parents are key partners in preventing child sexual abuse (CSA). Body safety tanning (BST) aims to preventing CSA. The first aim is to examine parents knowledge of CSA and interventions of the BST. Secondly, to evaluate the effect of parents' BST interventions on giving the child self-protection skills.Method: Sample included 92 parents and their 3-to 6 year-old preschool children. In the first stage of the study, WIST (What If Situations Test) was applied to the preschoolers. Secondly, data were collected from the parents about the knowledge of CSA and BST interventions.Results: Parents' have high CSA knowledge (M = 7.33 SD = 1.31). The proportion of parents who have knowledge BST is limited (32.6%). However, despite this limited knowledge, the number of those who talk to the child is higher (82.6%). There was no difference between the WIST sub-scale score; appropriate recognition, inappropriate recognition, saying, telling skills and Personal Safety Questionnaire (p > 0.05). The scores of doing and reporting skills were found to be statistically significant high (p < 0.05).Conclusions: Parents have high CSA knowledge, but the impact of BST interventions to their children on gaining the ability to self-protection skills is limited.Publication The impact of using creative drama in the delivery of body safety training programs for preschool children on preventing sexual abuse in Turkey(Wiley, 2022-01-24) Tunç, Gülseren Çitak; Yavaş, Halil; ÇITAK TUNÇ, GÜLSEREN; Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; Psikiyatri Hemşireliği Ana Bilim Dalı; 0000-0003-1329-1719; ADO-4343-2022The study focuses on the impact of the creative drama method on child sexual abuse (CSA) prevention program in Turkey. A pretest-posttest experimental design with a control group was used in the study. The research was carried out with a total of 72 preschool children aged 3-6 years. Data were collected by What If Situations Test (WIST). A creative drama activity was conducted for the experimental group before training. Body Safety Training (BST) was used in both groups. The average WIST posttest scores were statistically significantly higher compared to pretest scores for the children in both groups (p < .05). A comparison of pretest and posttest assessment found that there was no statistically significant difference (p > .05) between the two groups in regard to the WIST assessment averages. BST Program has a positive impact on increasing personal safety skills when implemented together with creative drama activities.Publication Efficacy of buzzy(r)on pain and anxiety during catheterization in children(Wiley, 2020-09-09) Duygulu, Şengül; Demirtaş, Zeliha; Yılmaz, Dilek; YILMAZ, DİLEK; Özyazıcıoğlu, Nurcan; ÖZYAZICIOĞLU, NURCAN; Çıtak Tunç, Gülseren; ÇITAK TUNÇ, GÜLSEREN; Aydın, Ayla İrem; AYDIN, AYLA İREM; Atak, Meryem; ATAK, MERYEM; Sağlık Bilimleri Meslek Yüksekokulu; 0000-0001-7269-8493; 0000-0001-9645-7221; AAE-2648-2019; HJZ-4896-2023; AAG-2640-2021; ADO-4343-2022; AAI-6835-2021Background: The use of a peripheral intravenous cannula is a common clinical practice, and it is known to be a major source of pain and anxiety in children. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the use of the Buzzy(R)on pain and anxiety in children during peripheral cannula application.Methods: The research sample consisted of 60 children between the ages of 8 and 16. For children in the experimental group, external cold and vibration were applied by means of the Buzzy(R)device. Before and during the peripheral intravenous cannula procedure, the levels of fear and anxiety relating to the procedure of the child patients in both the experimental and control groups were assessed by the children themselves and by an independent observer. Immediately after the vein entry procedure had been carried out, the level of pain felt by the children was determined.Results: The results of the statistical analysis showed no statistically significant difference between the anxiety levels of the groups before and after the procedure (P> 0.05). The results of the statistical analysis also showed no statistically significant difference between the postprocedural mean pain scores of the children as reported by the children themselves and by the observer (P> 0.05).Conclusions: In this study, unlike most studies in the literature, the conclusion was reached that the use of the Buzzy(R)to reduce pain and anxiety during the application of a peripheral intravenous cannula in children was not effective.Publication Determination of the personal values of the university students in different departments(Springer, 2020-06) Tunç, Gülseren Çıtak; Yılmaz, Dilek; Özyazıcıoğlu, Nurcan; ÇITAK TUNÇ, GÜLSEREN; YILMAZ, DİLEK; ÖZYAZICIOĞLU, NURCAN; Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; Hemşirelik Bölümü; 0000-0001-7269-8493; 0000-0001-9645-7221; ADO-4343-2022; AAI-6835-2021; V-6292-2018This research aims to examine the personal values of the first-year university students studying in different departments. This is a descriptive cross-sectional survey study. Research population is composed of first-grade students approving to participate and studying in the Nursing Department in the School of Health, Biology Department in the Faculty of Science and Letters and the Department of Early Childhood Education in the Faculty of Education of Uludag University. "Student Information Form" and "Schwartz Values Inventory" were used for data collection. When the values inventory is examined, it is seen that the point averages of the students are the highest in safety sub-dimension and the lowest in power sub-dimension. Power, achievement, and hedonism and tradition point averages of the students in the Nursing Department of Health Sciences are higher than those of the students in the departments of science and educational sciences, and the difference in between was found out to be statistically significant. Point average in the achievement sub-dimension was found out to be high among male students (p < 0.01). It was found out that the point averages of female students for hedonism, universalism, benevolence and conformity are higher than those of male students, while the achievement point averages were higher among male students.Publication The relationship between international students' health perceptions and their healthy lifestyle behaviors(Springer, 2021-07-10) Bilgin, Nevin Citak; Cerit, Birgul; Tunç, Gülseren Çıtak; ÇITAK TUNÇ, GÜLSEREN; Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 0000-0003-1329-1719; ADO-4343-2022This study was carried out to examine the relationship between international students' health perceptions and their healthy lifestyle behaviors. This descriptive and relational study was conducted with 216 international students studying at a university in Turkey. Study data were collected using the descriptive information form, the Perception of Health Scale (PHS) and the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP-II). Data were evaluated using descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation analysis. It was determined that the health perception and healthy lifestyle behaviors of the international students involved in this study were moderately positive. The study found a weak and positive relationship between PHS and the physical activity, nutrition and stress management subdimensions of HPLP, while a moderate positive relationship was identified between PHS and the spiritual growth and interpersonal relations subdimensions of HPLP. No relationship was observed between PHS and the health responsibility subdimension of HPLP. The fact that students have a positive perception of health reflects positively on their healthy lifestyle behaviors. It is important to disseminate education programs aimed at improving the health perception and healthy lifestyle behaviors of international students within the university.Publication The effect of parent-child communication on self-protection skills at pre-schoolers: The body safety training interventions in Turkey(Anadolu Üniversitesi, 2021-06-01) Tunç, Gülseren Çitak; Sezgin, Elif Yalçıntaş; Ulus, Leyla; ÇITAK TUNÇ, GÜLSEREN; SEZGİN, ELİF; Bursa Uludağ İnegöl Meslek Yüksekokulu; Çocuk Gelişimi Bölümü; 0000-0003-1329-1719; ADO-4343-2022; GAA-8537-2022Objective: Parents are key partners in preventing child sexual abuse (CSA).
