    OBJECTIVE: Nursing students learn the norms of the community they exist and grow up as a part of the society they live in. The identification of assertive and aggressive tendencies of nursing students as future healthcare professionals is essential. The research was conducted to study nursing students’ assertive and aggressive behaviors and their socio-demographic factors. METHOD: The population of the descriptive research is composed of 247 students studied Nursing at Biruni University Health Sciences Faculty between the dates 10 December and 24 December 2018. 108 students, filled the sampling data collection forms thoroughly and accepted participating in the study, took part in the research. The data was acquired through student identification form, Rathus Assertiveness Schedule (RAS) and Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ). The scores of RAS varies between -90 and +90; 10 and below represents timidity while below 10 shows assertiveness. However, BPAQ is composed of 5 sub-dimensions including aggression, verbal aggressiveness, indirect aggression, anger, and hostility. The scores obtained from the scale varies between 34 and 70; 58 and below is considered low while 59 and 110 are accepted as normal, and 111 and above is defined as high aggressive. In the statistical evaluation, percentages and Pearson correlation is used. RESULTS: The median age of the students participated in the research is 20.55±2.09 years and 73.1% of them are a woman. 48.1% of the students are at second grade, mother of 46.3% graduated from primary school, father of 28.7% graduated from primary school, 35.2% lives in a family with one or two kids, 75% is a nuclear family, and 69.4% is financially average. 17.6% of the students actively smoke while 19.4% has got a chronic disease and only 10.2% consider their general health well. 75% of the students have intentionally chosen nursery as an occupation and 57.4% is happy with it. Students’ RAS score average is 12.63±17.62 (min=-38, max=66) while 52.7% is at timidity level. On the other hand, students’ BPAQ score average is 84.81±20.04 (min=49, max=142) and 8.3% were identified with high aggression. In students’ BPAQ, it is determined that sub-dimensions of anger (20.73±5.27), hostility (18.80±4.50) and physical aggression (17.86±6.65) are high. A relation between RAS and BPAQ was not found in the research (r=-0.067, p>0.05). CONCLUSION: It is seen in the study that, nearly half of the nursery students were timid and their level of anger, hostility and physical aggression were high. Throughout the nursery education, training and applications supporting assertive behaviors are recommended.

    Is it possible to prevent the violence of patients and their relatives?
    (Maltepe Üniversitesi, 2020) Babayavrusu, Sena; Öztürk, Edanur; Çayır, Gülsen
    Violence is the purposeful use of force, compulsion, and a threat that may cause death, injury, psychological harm to one’s own body, someone else, group or community. Violence is an important public health problem that threatens public peace in health institutions in recent years. This study was carried out to investigate methods to prevent patient violence experienced in hospitals. In the studies, it is stated that the risk of being exposed to violence in health personnel is 16times higher. The Ministry of Health reported violence cases recorded as 68.375 between the dates 14.05.2012-01.04.2018. It was also observed that nurses in occupational groups were the ones who were most exposed to violence. It was determined that emergency, psychiatry, intensive care, and surgical service workers were exposed to more violence. Patients who think that their cases are urgent, whose expectations are not met, who think that they are not treated fairly, and stressful family members can cause violence. Service personnel are blamed for financial problems, inadequate information, hospitalization, lack of bedding, and for some cases that cannot be saved. Also, as negative news about healthcare professionals and their fields do not reflect setbacks in an objective way in the media may lead to increased violence. As a result, excellent communication and explanatory information are required. Moreover, things to be done and how long the patients are to wait should be explained. Contacting other hospitals and dispatching the patients to them when beds are full will be an indication of care. In addition, it is thought that the violence will be reduced significantly with new regulations in the health system.
