Introduction and purpose: It has been reported that driving and non-compliance with the rules are common in young adulthood. Consequently, millions of people experience serious injuries secondary to traffic accidents and live with long-term negative health consequences. The aim of this study is to find an answer to the question of what are the alcoholic driving behavior and related socio-behavioral factors in university students. Method: In the study, 2508 students selected by the stratified cluster sampling method among the students studying at the faculties and colleges in the central district of Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University were collected with a 41-question questionnaire prepared by the researchers. The data related to traffic safety, substance use and some violent behaviors were selected for this article. Results: Smoking in drunk drivers rate (32.7%), hookah smoking rate (61.7%), alcohol use rate (25.2%), substance use rate (2.8%), physical fight in the last year to those who do not have a mixing ratio (26.2%), a weapon carrying ratio (15.3%) was significantly higher than those who did not. Discussion and conclusion: These findings suggest that showing risky behavior also triggers risky behaviors. Family Physicians also have a preventive health service role in matters such as traffic and security and should be developed.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to examine the know-ledge, attitudes and behaviors of intern physicians about rational drug use and drug interactions and to increase their awareness. Materials and Methods: Data; the “physician evaluation questionnaire” and the “drug interactions knowledge level questionnaire” with the choice of true, false and I have no idea consisting of 20 correct statements prepared by the researcher were collected online. Results: 180 students participated in the study. 59 % of the participants were female and the mean age was 23,71± 0,72. Participants stated that their level of knowledge about drugs, drug interactions and bioequivalence was low. While taking the patient’s history; they questioned vitamin, food supplements (16,7 %; n = 30) and herbal medicine (22,2 %; n = 40) at least. The rate of those who wanted to receive training on rational drug use before graduation was 92,2 % (n = 166). The correct number of answers given to the drug interactions questionnaire is average 6,76 ± 5,57, wrong number avg. 1,29 ± 2,14, I have no idea number average. It was 11,86 ± 6,28. According to the survey, the knowledge level of physicians on drug interactions was very low (Crohnbach alpha value of 0,92). The mean number of false and no ıdea answers was significantly higher in those who received rational drug education (p = 0,027, p = 0,028). Conclusion: The formation of rational drug use awareness and the development of educational opportunities for the expansion of educational content and timing is required to be updated dynamically.

Ýntroduction: Standard treatment for hypothyroidism is replacement with synthetic Levothyroxine (LT4) sodium preparations. LT4 should be taken on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before a meal, as maximal absorption occurs when taken on an empty stomach. Protein Pump Inhibitor (PPI), iron sulphate, calcium carbonate have been shown to reduce the absorption of LT4 when taken together with LT4. Therefore, patients receiving LT4 should be informed to take their drugs at least 4 hours before drugs that interact with thyroid hormone absorption. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the correct use of levothyroxine drug, which is widely used in the society, in patients with hypothyroidism, to reveal the reasons for misuse, and to associate the number of drugs used by patients, types and chronic diseases. Material and method: Our study was conducted with a face-to-face questionnaire consisting of 18 questions in patients who applied to Recep Tayyip Erdoðan University Education and Research Hospital Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases Polyclinic and Family Medicine outpatient clinic between 10-20 June 2020 and used LT4 due to any reason of hypothyroidism, and by obtaining patient consent. Results: 103 patients, 15 men and 88 women, participated in our study. 103 (100%) of the patients participating in our study took their medication in the morning and stored it in the right place. 94 of them (91.3%) took their medication regularly. 92 of them (89.3%) used their medicine at least 30 minutes before the meal. 60 of the patients (58.25%) used their medication correctly. 18 (41.9%) of the 43 people who used wrong medication were using PPI, 7 (16.3%) calcium carbonate, 5 (11.6%) ferrous sulfate.

Objective: Our aim in this study is to determine the knowledge level of the students of the faculty of medicine about cervical cancer, prevention methods from this cancer, and their general attitudes towards HPV vaccine. Material and Method: This descriptive study was conducted with 5th and 6th grade medical students who applied to family medicine outpatient clinic of the university for any reason between September 2020 and November 2020. A questionnaire form consisting of 18 questions was applied as a face-to-face interview. Results: 192 students participated in the study. The average age of the participants was 23.7 ± 1.96 years (min = 20-max = 42). 62% (n = 119) of them were female and 38% (n = 73) of them were male. While 45% of the participants (n=88) were staying with their family, 54.2% (n=104) were not with their families. Those of the female gender knew more about HPV. In addition, those who want to be HPV vaccinated for themselves, those who want to have her daughter HPV vaccinated, those who want to be HPV vaccinated even if it is paid, and those who want to be HPV vaccinated if it is paid by social security were found to be significantly different in female gender. No significant relationship was found between staying with the family and knowledge and attitudes. Conclusion: Our study was conducted among medical faculty students, and most of the participants had knowledge about HPV and cervical cancer. They had hesitations about HPV vaccine and vaccination. A little more emphasis on HPV vaccination in education will benefit both the individuals themselves and the society they will provide health services in the future.

Aim: The study was conducted to determine the nurses’ attitudes towards evidence-based nursing and their level of knowledge to prevent infection associated with peripheral venous catheters. Method: The research is of descriptive type. This research was conducted at a university hospital in the east of Turkey between dated July-August 2020. The population of the study was composed of all nurses working in the hospital. The sample consists of 193 nurses determined by power analysis. “Personal Information Form”, “Evidence‐Based Nursing Attitude Scale” and “Information Form for Preventing Peripheral Venous Catheter-Related Infection” were used to collect data. Descriptive statistics, independent sample t test, Mann Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H tests were used in data analysis. Correlation analysis was conducted to determine the relationship between scale scores. Results: In the study, it was determined that the total score average of the nurses in the Evidence‐Based Nursing Attitude Scale was 62.4 ± 9.6 and they have been found to have a high level of positive attitude towards evidence-based practice. The total score average of the information form for preventing infection associated with peri- pheral venous catheter was 3.88 ± 1.53 and the level of knowledge was low. In the study, it was determined that there was a quite weak and positive relationship between the Evidence‐Based Nursing Attitude Scale and nurses’ level of knowledge of peripheral venous catheter (r = .187, p <0.009). It was determined that there was a quite weak and positive correlation between the emotions sub-dimension and the level of knowledge of PVC (r = .230, p <0.05). Conclusion: In the study, it was determined that nurses have a high level of positive attitude towards evidence-based practice, while their level of knowledge about preventing infection associated with peripheral venous catheter was found to be low.

Exam anxiety, is defined as an intense anxiety that prevents the effective use of the knowledge learned before the exam and leads to a decrease in succsess. Exam anxiety is an important problem that causes a decrease in performance and is accompanied by serious psychological problems. In studies conducted in different samples, anxiety symptoms and exam related anxiety were examined. In a study conducted on students of the Faculty of Medicine, it was found that 65% of students experience exam anxiety for various reasons and female students experience more exam anxiety than male. In the study conducted to determine the relationship between exam anxiety levels and sleep quality of highschool senior students, it was shown that students have exam anxiety and this situation negatively affects sleep qualty. Again, in another study examining the effects of parents’ expectations on the exam anxiety on high school seniors, factors such as familiy structure, educational status of the parents and income status of the family were examined. It was found that the family structure was effective on examination enxiety and anxiety level was higher in girls than boys. In the study conducted on the test method, which is an examination technique, the effect of various intervention techniques in the treatment of test anxiety was examined and cognitive behavioral methods were found to be the most effective. In this review, it is aimed to review the factors related to exam anxiety in line with the literature.

Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between death anxiety levels and rational drug use of individuals admitted to Karabuk Community Health Center Smoking Cessation Outpatient Clinic. Materials and Methods: A correlational and descriptive methodology was used in this study. The study included 278 individuals and the survey method was applied. Data entry was made with SPSS 22. In the study, data on rational drug use and death anxiety levels of individuals were found. Results: As a result of the study, levels of rational drug use and death anxiety levels in individuals were determined separately. As a result of the evaluation, it was found that rational drug use decreased proportionally as death anxiety level increased. In the study, the value of p<0.05 was considered significant. Conclusion: According to the results obtained, the mean score of the participants’ death anxiety level is 35.0 ± 9.53 and this score is consistent with overall-moderate death anxiety. The moderate score for the level of rational drug use was found to be 38.9 ± 3.43, indicating that the participants had a level of rational drug use above the average. In conclusion, the study showed that as death anxiety increased, the level of rational drug use decreased.
