Amaç: Bu çalışma yaşlı bakım programında öğrenim gören öğrencilerin yaşlı ayrımcılığına ilişkin tutumlarını, akran desteğini etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek ve akran desteğinin yaşlı ayrımcılığına yönelik etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapıldı.
Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı olarak yürütülen bu çalışma bir üniversitenin iki farklı birimindeki yaşlı bakımı programında öğrenim gören 223 öğrenci ile yapıldı. Araştırma verilerinin toplanmasında öğrenci tanılama formu, yaşlı ayrımcılığı tutum ve akran desteği ölçekleri kullanıldı. Verilerin analizinde bağımsız örneklem t testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi, pearson korelasyon analizi ve linear regresyon analizi kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaş ortalamasının 20.92±2.01, yaşlı ayrımcılığı tutum puan ortalamasının 81.27±13.12, akran desteği puan ortalamasının 44.78±12.53 olduğu tespit edildi. Yaşlı ayrımcılığı tutum puanı ile akran desteği puanı arasında pozitif yönlü anlamlı korelasyon olduğu saptandı (r=0.139, p=0.038). Akran desteği puanının tutum puanı üzerinde düşük düzey yordayıcı olduğu bulundu.
Sonuç: Öğrencilerin yaşlı ayrımcılığına ilişkin tutumlarının olumlu, akran desteğinin orta düzey olduğu ve akran desteği fazla olan öğrencilerin daha olumlu bir tutum sergiledikleri bulundu. Akran desteğinin düşük düzeyde yaşlı ayrımcılığına ilişkin tutumu etkilediği bulundu.; Objective: This study was carried out to determine the attitudes of students studying in the elderly care program towards ageism, the factors affecting peer support, and to evaluate the effect of peer support on ageism.
Method: This descriptive study was conducted with 223 students studying in the elderly care program of two different units of a university. Student information form, Ageism Attitude Scale and Peer Support Scale were used in collecting the study data. Independent sample t-test, One-Way ANOVA, Pearson Correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were used to evaluate the data.
Results: It was found that mean age of the students was 20.92±2.01, mean ageism attitude scale score was 81.27±13.12, mean peer support scale score was 44.78±12.53. A positive and significant correlation was found between the ageism attitude score and the peer support score (r=0.139, p=0.038). Peer support score was found to be a low predictor of attitude score.
Conclusion: It was found that students had positive attitudes towards ageism, moderate level of peer support and students with higher peer support showed a more positive attitude. It was found that peer support had a low effect on attitude towards ageism

Purpose: This study was carried out to identify the attitudes toward epilepsy, health fatalism, and the factors affecting these in individuals living in Artvin in the northeast of Turkey.
Method: This descriptive and cross-sectional study involved 1443 healthy individuals at a hospital in Artvin in
northeastern Turkey between January and March 2020. An individual information form, an epilepsy attitude
scale, and a religious health fatalism scale were used to assess their views. An independent sample t-test,
Mann–Whitney U test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson correlation analysis were used to analyze the data.
Results: The mean score of participants' attitudes on epilepsy was 48.17 (standard deviation (SD) = 12.93), while
the mean of their health fatalism score was 48.43 (SD = 17.41). There was a significant negative correlation between attitude scores and health fatalism (r = −0.084, p = 0.001). Significant differences were found among
attitude, health fatalism mean scores, and misconceptions associated with religion about epilepsy being a contagious, psychiatric, and incurable disease that should be hidden. Significant differences were additionally observed
among attitude, health fatalism mean scores, and education, marital status, income, employment status, and
presence of chronic disease (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: It was found that most individuals had moderate level attitude toward epilepsy and had high health
fatalism. Individuals with a high degree of health fatalism were found to have more negative attitude toward epilepsy. Attitude was found to be more negative, and health fatalism was found to be higher in individuals with
low education level, low-income level, who were married, who were unemployed, who had a chronic disease,
and in those who thought epilepsy was a contagious, psychiatric, and incurable disease associated with religion
that should be hidden.
Implications: It is recommended that health professionals organize training programs to increase public understanding of epilepsy, improving individual attitudes toward the condition, and minimizing health fatalism
