ÖZET
Amaç: Fizyoterapi teknikerliği öğrencilerinde yeni tip koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 [coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19)] korkusu, anksiyetesi, kaçınma tutumlarının ve mesleki eğitimdeki etkilerinin değerlendirilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışmaya, 80 fizyoterapi teknikerliği öğrencisi dâhil edildi. Katılımcıların yaş, cinsiyet, kaçıncı sınıf öğrencisi olduğu, birlikte yaşamakta olduğu kişiler, COVID-19 ile ilgili aldığı tedbirler, kendisi/yakın çevresinde COVID-19 öyküsü olup olmadığı, mesleki eğitimleri sırasında COVID- 19 bulaşma ve/veya bulaştırma, mesleki hedeflere ve yeterliliğe COVID-19 ve/veya sonuçları nedeniyle ulaşma korkuları olup olmadığına dair veriler toplandı. Koronavirüs Anksiyete Ölçeği, COVID- 19 Korkusu Ölçeği ve COVID-19’dan Kaçınma Tutumları Ölçekleri uygulandı. Bulgular: Katılımcıların %45’inde kendisinde/yakın çevresinde COVID-19 öyküsü, %65’inde mesleki eğitimleri sırasında bir hastadan COVID-19 bulaşması, %52,5’inde bir hastaya COVID-19 bulaştırma korkusu, %70’inde mesleki hedeflerine, %65’inde mesleki yeterliliğe pandemi ve/veya sonuçları nedeniyle ulaşamama korkusu mevcuttu. Mesleki hedeflere ulaşamama korkusu olanlarda kadın (p=0,002) ve 2. sınıf öğrencisi sayısı (p=0,02); istedikleri düzeyde mesleki yeterliliğe ulaşamama korkusu olanlarda 2. sınıf öğrencisi sayısı (p=0,004) olmayanlara kıyasla anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti. COVID- 19 Korkusu Ölçeği skoru mesleki hedeflere (p<0,001) ve mesleki yeterliliğe ulaşamama korkusu olanlarda (p<0,001); olmayanlara kıyasla anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti. Sonuç: Fizyoterapi teknikerliği öğrencilerinde, mesleki hedeflere ve yeterliliğe pandemi ve/veya sonuçları nedeniyle ulaşamama korkusu sık görülmektedir.
