Abstract:

 Objective: This study was conducted to reveal the attitudes of nursing students towards the security of their personal health data. Method: 347 nursing students were included in this cross-sectional descriptive study. The data of the study were collected with a personal information form and the Personal Health Data Recording and Protection Attitude Scale for Nursing Students KSVKKTÖ. Descriptive analyses, Mann Whitney U test and Kruskall Wallis test were used in the analysis of the data, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between the variables. Result: The mean age of the students was 20.611.45 years and 78.7 were female. It was determined that female students scored higher than males in the legal information and legal data sharing sub-dimensions. 97.4 of the students stated that they did not share anything about patients on social media, 86.7 stated that they did not take photos with patients, and 73.9 of those who took photos with patients did not share their photos on social media. In addition, 90.5 of the students reported that they did not use patient information for purposes other than their professional purposes, and 59.1 reported that they did not take photos of patient data. 91.1 of the students stated that they were informed about the confidentiality of patient data in their classes, and it was determined that the total scale score and personal health data information, legal information, legal data sharing, and personal health data sharing scale sub-dimension scores of the students who reported that they were informed in their classes were higher. 38.3 of the students were second-year students, and a significant difference was found between the total score of KSVKKTÖ and the legal data sharing sub-dimension with the grade level. p0.05. Conclusion: According to the research results, it was determined that the attitudes of nursing students towards the recording and protection of personal data were positive. It was found that the attitudes of female students and senior students were higher.

 Amaç: Çalışma, kişisel sağlık verilerinin güvenliğine ilişkin hemşirelik öğrencilerinin tutumlarını ortaya koymak amacı ile gerçekleştirildi. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel olarak gerçekleştirilen bu araştırmaya, 347 hemşirelik öğrencisi dahil edildi. Araştırmanın verileri kişisel bilgi formu ve Hemşirelik Öğrencileri İçin Kişisel Sağlık Verilerinin Kayıt ve Korunması Tutum Ölçeği ile toplandı. Veri analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler ve Mann Whitney U testi ve Kruskall Wallis testi, değişkenler arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesinde Pearson korelasyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Katılımcıların yaş ortalamaları 20,611,45 yıl olup 78,7si kadındır. Kadın öğrencilerin ölçeğin yasal bilgiler ve yasal veri paylaşımı alt boyutlarından erkek öğrencilere göre daha yüksek puan aldığı belirlendi. Öğrencilerin 97.4ü hastalarla ilgili sosyal medyada paylaşımda bulunmadığını, 86,7si hastalarla fotoğraf çekilmediğini, hastalarla fotoğraf çekilenlerin 73,9u fotoğrafları sosyal medyada paylaşmadığını belirtmiştir. Ayrıca öğrencilerin 90,5i hastalara ait bilgileri mesleki amaçları dışında kullanmadığını, 59,1i hasta verilerinin fotoğrafını çekmediğini bildirmiştir. Öğrencilerin 91,1i hasta verilerinin gizliliği ile ilgili derslerde bilgilendirilme yapıldığını belirtmiş ve derslerde bilgilendirilme yapıldığını bildiren öğrencilerin toplam ölçek puanı ve kişisel sağlık verisi bilgisi, yasal bilgiler, yasal veri paylaşımı, kişisel sağlık verisi paylaşımı ölçek alt boyut puanlarının daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin 38,3ü 2. sınıf öğrencisi olmakta olup, sınıf düzeyi ile KSVKKTÖnin toplam puanı ve yasal veri paylaşımı alt boyutu arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. p0,05. Sonuç: Bu araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre, öğrencilerin kişisel verilerin kaydı ve korunmasına ilişkin olumlu tutumlara sahip olduğu saptanmıştır. Özellikle kadın olan öğrencilerin ve son sınıfta okuyan öğrencilerin daha yüksek tutumlara sahip olduğu belirlendi.
