| Özet |
| Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine critical thinking dispositions and problem solving skills of nursing students at Dokuz Eylül University, School of Nursing and compare the changes in these variables through the four years of nursing education.Methods: This descriptive study included 267 students from Dokuz Eylül University, Nursing of School. Data were collected using two instruments, California Critical Thinking Disposition Scale and Problem Solving Skills Inventory. An additional questionnaire was used to collect demographic data. One Way ANOVA and Pearson correlation analysis were used to analyze data. Tukey HSD test was employed as Post Hoc test. Level of significance was set at p<. 05. Results: Students had moderate critical thinking dispositions and problem solving skills. There was an increase in problem solving skills from the first to the fourth year and there was a negative significant relationship between critical thinking and problem solving skills showing a positive relationship between these two variables. Conclusion: Although increased scores in critical thinking dispositions and decreased scores of problem solving skills may be considered positive, results indicate a need for students’ continuous development in these areas. Incorporation of critical thinking and problem solving skills into nursing school curricula can be a beneficial strategy. |
