Öğe ADOLESCENT FOOD PARENTING QUESTIONNAIRE: EVALUATION OF TURKISH PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES OF PARENT AND ADOLESCENT VERSIONS(Dokuz Eylul Univ Inst Health Sciences, 2024) Kosem, Dilek Demir; Demir, Senay; Bektas, Murat; Bektas, Ilknur; Hayli, Cigdem Muge; Bor, Nese Ataman; Koning, MaaikePurpose: This study aimed to adapt the Adolescent Food Parenting Questionnaire: Parent and Adolescent Version into Turkish and conduct validity and reliability studies. Material and Methods: The research was carried out in methodological type and was carried out with 337 adolescents aged 12-16 years and their parents between June to September 2022. Data were collected with the Child and Parent Information Form and Adolescent Food Parent Questionnaire. Content validity, construct validity, internal consistency reliability, and item analysis were used to determine the questionnaire's psychometric properties. Results: Both parent and adolescent versions of the Adolescent Food Parenting Questionnaire contain 16 items. The results of the exploratory factor analysis determined that the five-factor structure explained 50.45% of the total Variance for the parent version and 63.31% of the total Variance for the adolescent version. In addition, item factor loads for the parent version ranged from 0.32 to 0.71, while item factor loads for the adolescent version ranged from 0.37 to 0.75. As a result of confirmatory factor analysis, the goodness of fit values of the parent version were chi 2/sd=2.030, RMSEA=0.055, GFI=0.94, CFI=0.95, IFI=0.95, RFI=0.87, NFI=0.90, TLI =0.93, and the adolescent version were chi 2/sd=1.672, RMSEA = 0.045, GFI = 0.95, CFI = 0.96, IFI = 0.96, RFI = 0.88, NFI = 0.91, and TLI = 0.95. The Cronbach alpha value for the entire parent version was 0.86, and the Cronbach alpha values for all sub- dimensions were determined to vary between 0.60 and 0.84. The adolescent version's overall cronbach alpha was determined to be 0.88, and the adolescent version's sub-dimension Cronbach alpha values were discovered to vary between 0.63 and 0.841. Conclusion: As a result of the research, it was determined that the Adolescent Food Parenting Questionnaire: Parent and Adolescent Version is a valid and reliable measurement tool to be used specifically for Turkish society.Öğe The effects of parents' vaccine hesitancy and COVID-19 vaccine literacy on attitudes toward vaccinating their children during the pandemic(Elsevier Science Inc, 2023) Bektas, Ilknur; Bektas, MuratPurpose: The study was conducted to examine the effects of parents' vaccine hesitancy and COVID-19 vaccine literacy on their attitudes toward vaccinating their children during the COVID-19 pandemic.Design and methods: The study was descriptive, cross-sectional, and comparative. The data were collected from 199 parents with children aged 0-18 using a Google Form on social media. In the study, the Parent Introductory Information Form, the Vaccine Hesitancy Scale in Pandemics, and the COVID-19 Vaccine Literacy Scale were used. In the analysis of the data, numbers, percentages, and means were calculated, and the significance test of the difference between the two means and the logistic regression analysis were used.Results: Parents' vaccination hesitancy scale sub-dimensions and COVID-19 vaccine literacy scale sub-dimensions together explain 25.4% of their attitudes toward having their children vaccinated against COVID-19. When the variables were examined individually, it was determined that the sub-dimensions of the Vaccine Hesitancy Scale in Pandemics alone significantly affected their attitudes during the pandemic period (p < 0.001).Conclusions: Parents are hesitant about getting their children vaccinated against COVID-19. Improving vaccine literacy can increase vaccination rates in special groups to overcome vaccine hesitancy.(c) 2023 Elsevier Inc.

Our aim was to examine effects of spousal support in the early postpartum period on breastfeeding motivation in patriarchal societies.Material and Methods: Study was descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational design. Study was conducted in a pediatrics outpatient clinic of University Hospital in Inland Anatolia Region in Turkey. It included primiparous (n=145) and multiparous (n=152) women. Data were collected by using Demographic Data Collection Form, The Scale of Perceived Spousal Support among Women in the Early Postpartum Period and The Breastfeeding Motivation Scale. Descriptive and Simple linear regression analyses were conducted in this study.Results: Analysis showed a significant positive, moderate relation between spousal support and breastfeeding motivation in the primiparous women; spousal support accounted for 23.8% of breastfeeding motivation of the women. There was a significant, positive weak relation between spousal support and breastfeeding motivation in the multiparous women; spousal support explained 8.2% of breastfeeding motivation in these women.Conclusion: Spousal support in the early postpartum period was found to have a positive influence on improvement of breastfeeding motivation. However, it could explain a small percentage of breastfeeding motivation. New strategies should be created to encourage spouses to get involved in breastfeeding.Öğe Evaluation of the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Skin-to-Skin Contact Scale for nurses(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2024) Bektas, Ilknur; Özalp Gerçeker, Gülçin; Bektas, MuratRationale: Skin-to-skin contact is the practice with the highest level of evidence that increases the growth, development, and healing rate of the newborn. Neonatal nurses are also the best practitioners of skin-to-skin contact. Aims: This study examined the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Skin-to-Skin Contact Scale for nurses. Methods: This descriptive, correlational, and cross-sectional study was carried out with 226 neonatal and pediatric nurses between July 2022 and July 2023. The data were collected using an online questionnaire, including a descriptive information form and a skin-to-skin contact scale for nurses. Data were analyzed by explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, and item-total score analysis. Results: It was determined that the scale consisted of 20 items and four sub-dimensions and that those four sub-dimensions explained 53.01% of the total variance. All factor loads were higher than 0.30 in the explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses. All the fit indices were higher than 0.80, and the Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) was less than 0.080 in the confirmatory factor analysis. Cronbach's alpha was determined to be 0.89 for the total scale and greater than 0.70 for all sub-dimensions. Conclusions: The Skin-to-Skin Contact Scale for nurses was determined to be a valid and reliable measurement tool for Turkish nurses. It is recommended that the scale be used regularly in clinics to determine nurses' attitudes towards skin-to-skin contact. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.Öğe The predictive power of disease management of parents with children with cancer on fatigue and sleepiness levels(Springer, 2023) Akdeniz Kudubes, Asli; Bektas, Murat; Ayar, Dijle; Bektas, IlknurThis study was conducted as a descriptive, correlational, and cross-sectional research to determine the predictive power of disease management of parents of children with cancer on fatigue and sleepiness levels. Study data were collected by using a Parent Information Form, the Chalder Fatigue Scale, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and the Family Management Measure. Mean scores, percentage calculations, Pearson correlation analysis, and linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of data. Three models were created according to the relationship between the variables in the multiple regression analysis. In Model 1, the first sub-dimension of the disease management scale explained 59.7% of the level of fatigue and sleepiness. In Model 2, the second sub-dimension of the disease management scale explained 69.4% of the level of fatigue and sleepiness. In Model 3, the third sub-dimension of the disease management scale explained 67.5% of the level of fatigue and sleepiness. Childhood cancer is a family disease that affects parents as well as children. This is an important study revealing the effect of chronic disease management on the fatigue and daytime sleepiness of parents with children with cancer. Considering the outcomes of this study, nurses should be aware of the possible effects of disease management on the level of fatigue and daytime sleepiness. Nurses should not forget that families who cannot manage chronic diseases effectively and successfully may have high levels of fatigue and sleepiness.Öğe Simulation for breastfeeding support during the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey: A quasi-experimental study(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2023) Gurkan, Kuebra Pinar; Bektas, Ilknur; Yucedag, Mehtap; Yilmaz, OzgurWe aimed to investigate the effect of simulation-supported breastfeeding program given to women in pregnancy during the COVID-19 pandemic period on breastfeeding success, breastfeeding self-efficacy, and mother-infant attachment. They carried out this study 73 pregnant women who presented to the obstetrics and gynecology clinic of a hospital and were selected by using the simple random sampling method. The researchers used a quasi-experimental design in this study. After the simulation-supported breastfeeding program, they found that breastfeeding success and breastfeeding self-efficacy were increased in the experimental group compared to the control group. The researchers were used the structural equation model, regression analysis, and independent samples t-test in the data analysis. The education given to pregnant women in this period when social interaction decreases becomes more important. Researchers are recommended that breastfeeding education should start in the antenatal period and continue in the postpartum period by using different education methods together. Simulation-supported breastfeeding program is a model that can be used to provide breastfeeding education for pregnant women in public health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic. With this program, the number of visits to the hospital for breastfeeding education will decrease, and more remote counseling will be provided.Öğe THE PREDICTION OF HEALTH LITERACY OF PARENTS WHO HAVE CHILDREN WITH CANCER ON THEIR HEALTHCARE SATISFACTION(Dokuz Eylul Univ Inst Health Sciences, 2024) Kudubes, Asli Akdeniz; Bektas, Ilknur; Ayar, Dijle; Bektas, MuratPurpose: This study was a descriptive and cross-sectional study to examined the prediction of health literacy of parents having children with cancer on the healthcare satisfaction. Material and Methods: The descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted between January and May 2019 and included 207 parents who had children treated at the pediatric hematology -oncology unit of a university hospital. A parental information form, the Health Literacy Index, and the Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL) Inventory Healthcare Satisfaction Hematology/Oncology Module parental report was used to collect the data. Percentage calculations, mean values, Pearson's correlation analysis, linear regression analysis, and multiple correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. Results: According to the relationship between variables in regression analysis, five models were created. Each subscale in the Health Literacy Index was identified as a separate model. In the last model, the effect of the total score of the Health Literacy Index on PedsQL Healthcare Satisfaction Hematology/Oncology Module was determined. According to these models, healthcare satisfaction increased as the health literacy subdimension scores and total scores increased. Increased scores of the Health Literacy Index were found to promote healthcare satisfaction. Conclusion: The ability of parents to manage their children's disease process and daily life activities becomes better as their health literacy levels increase.
