The sample of the research consisted of 32 parents who had children with a T1D diagnosis aged 3-12 years and who agreed to participate in the study. Data were collected using the Family Background Questionnaire, General Health Questionnaire, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, Parental Attitude Research Instrument, Conflict Behaviour Questionnaire and Parent Satisfaction Questionnaire. The Group Triple P Programme was implemented with all groups for 8 weeks. Data were collected immediately after the programme. Data were evaluated by using multidirectional variance analysis, t-test and chi-square test.Results: It was shown that the Group Triple P applied to the parents of those children with a T1D diagnosis positively affects the mental health of the parents, their parental attitudes and the problematic behaviour of their children and also that the parents had less conflict with their children and the children had less conflict with their parents.Conclusion: It is suggested that further studies are carried out in different centres and cities with the Group Triple P Programme to widen the use of the Group Triple P Programme and also to plan future research where the Group Triple P programme and other programmes currently used in country can be compared.Publication An analysis of the association between HbA1c levels of patients with type 2 diabetes and nutritional habits(Discovery Publication, 2018-03-01) Avdal, Elif Ünsal; Arkan, Burcu; Atalay, Nesil Gönen; Uran, Berna Nilgün Özgürsoy; Pamuk, Barış Önder; Özyazıcıoğlu, Nurcan; Çınar, Havva Gökdere; ARKAN, BURCU; ÖZYAZICIOĞLU, NURCAN; Çınar, Havva Gökdere; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Yüksekokulu/Hemşirelik Bölümü.; EKJ-6560-2022; AAI-6835-2021; IJR-3146-2023Objective: This study aims to identify the association between the nutritional habits of patients with type 2 diabetes and their HbA1c levels, and to determine the influences of nutritional habits on HbA1c levels.Methods: This descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional study was based on Type 2 diabetes and nutritional habits. A total of 110 individuals with type 1 diabetes were randomly selected from Uludag University Hospital, Bursa, Turkey. The sample power was found to be 92%. The data collection tools were an Information Form for Diabetes Patients and a Nutritional Habits Form. The study data were analyzed with descriptive, Pearson correlation and multiple regression statistics.Results: The study results illustrated a statistically significant relation between the HbA1c levels and nutritional habits of diabetes patients (r = -.88) and further suggested that 72% of changes in HbA1c levels may result from patients' nutritional habits (R2:.72, p=.000).Conclusion: Diabetes patients can better manage a nutritional therapy and control HbA1c levels when their nutritional habits have been identified in detail. Nutritional habits are proven to be influential in maintaining glycemic control, which consequently emphasizes the significance of the nutritional habits of patients with diabetes. In summary, this small-scale cross-sectional study indicates the potential role of nutritional habits in glycemic control.Publication Clinical decision-making levels of nursing students and affecting factors(Galenos Publ House, 2022-12-01) Arkan, Burcu; ARKAN, BURCU; Çınar, Hava Gökdere; GÖKDERE ÇİNAR, HAVA; Uzun, Rabia; Yılmaz, Dilek; YILMAZ, DİLEK; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi/Hemşirelik Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0001-7269-8493; E-6291-2017BACKGROUND/AIMS: Although clinical decision-making is an integral part of nursing practice, there are very few studies which investigate the factors affecting decision-making. This study was conducted to find out nursing students' levels of clinical decision-making and their affecting factors.MATERIALS AND METHODS: This research was carried out with a cross-sectional and descriptive design. This research was carried out on 3621st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade students studying at a faculty of health sciences department of nursing. The data of this research were collected by using a "Sociodemographic Data Collection Form" and "The Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale (CDMNS)." In the analysis of the data, numbers, percentages, and means were used with Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test.RESULTS: The mean age of the students was 20.75 +/- 1.91 years, 80.9% of the students were female and 63% were graduates of elite Anatolian or science high schools. The students' total "CDMNS" score mean was 100.81 +/- 18.06. It was found that variables such as grade, gender, the high school of graduation, the number of people living in the family, education and employment status of the parents, having chosen the department willingly, and income and employment status did not affect the clinical decision-making status of the students (p>0.05).CONCLUSION: As a result of this study, it was found that the students' status of clinical decision-making is at a medium level. It is recommended to repeat this study on students studying in different curricula in nursing, on a larger sample group and to analyze the students' level of clinical decision-making in terms of variables such as critical thinking, problem solving and their clinical learning environment.Publication A reliability and validity study of the Turkish version of the parenting scale(Galenos Yayincilik, 2019-03-01) Bektas, Murat; Örtürk, Candan; ARKAN, BURCU; Özyazıcıoğlu, Nurcan; ÖZYAZICIOĞLU, NURCAN; Vural, Pınar; VURAL, AYŞE PINAR; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Psikiyatri Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0003-3327-8204; 0000-0001-9645-7221; E-6291-2017; AAI-6835-2021Aim: This study was conducted for the purpose of determining the validity and reliability of the Parenting scale in a Turkish sample.Materials and Methods: The study was conducted as a methodological-descriptive-cross sectional study. The study sample consisted of 355 parents who had applied to Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Polyclinic of Uludag University. However; as 85 parents did not precisely fill the scales, they were excluded from the sample and the analyses were conducted on the basis of 270 parents. The study data were collected using the Demographic Data Collection Form and the Parenting scale. Validity analyses of the scale were examined via explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis. The internal consistency of the scale was evaluated via Cronbach alpha, Spearman-Brown and Guttman split-half coefficients. The relationship between item-total score and item-subscale total score was examined via Pearson correlation analysis.Results: The Cronbach alpha values of the Parenting scale were determined as; 0.935 in the lower dimension of Laxness, 0.916 in the lower dimension of Over-reactivity, 0.770 in the lower dimension of Hostility (use of verbal or physical force) and 0.829 in the total scale. The factor loads varied between; 0.52 and 0.98 in the lower dimension of Laxness, 0.75 and 0.92 in the lower dimension of Over-reactivity and 0.46 and 0.95 in the lower dimension of Hostility. It was determined that the total scale scores and correlations of items in the scale varied between 0.20-0.66. It was also determined that item-subscale total score correlations varied between; 0.61-0.96 in the lower dimension of Laxness, 0.70-0.86 in the lower dimension of Over-reactivity and 0.68-0.91 in the lower dimension of Hostility.Conclusion: The Parenting scale is a valid and reliable tool that can be used in Turkish culture.Publication Reiki for dysmenorrhea management: A pilot study(Carbone Editore, 2019-01-01) Alpar, Şule Ecevit; Çınar, Hava Gökdere; GÖKDERE ÇİNAR, HAVA; Arkan, Burcu; ARKAN, BURCU; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi/Hemşirelik Anabilim Dalı.; E-6291-2017; AAI-7933-2021Introduction: This study was conducted to determine whether reiki is effective for managing dysmenorrhea.Materials and methods: The participants were asked to fill in a questionnaire form consisting of 10 questions and the McGill Pain Questionnarie before and after the reiki session. The reiki was performed by placing the hands over the seven main chakras and painful regions of the participants for a period of 30-45 minutes.Results: A statistically singnificant difference was found in the pain felt in the regions pre- and post-reiki application (p<0.001). The average pain score of the women was 3.85 prior to the reiki while it was 1.6 after the application, and there was a statistically significant difference between the average scores (p<0.001).Conclusions: 30-45 minutes of reiki had a positive effect on dysmenorrhea management.Publication Investigation of the relationship between stress, burnout, job satisfaction of nurses working in oncology clinic(Discovery Publication, 2018-03-01) Ayakdaş, Semra R.
