Child abuse is an important public health problem as it negatively affects the child's development as well as the child's family and therefore society. Nurses are one of the most important members of the team caring for child abuse victims and are indispensable in terms of child and family education.
The research was carried out to determine the perceptions of third and fourth year nursing students, who took the Child Health and Diseases Nursing course, about child abuse through metaphor.
The research was carried out with the metaphor analysis technique based on the phenomenological method. "Metaphor analysis" is a technique based on the phenomenological research method within the qualitative research methods.
The study was conducted at a state university in Turkey.
While the population of the research consisted of nursing department students in a facility, the sample consisted of third and fourth year nursing students who took the Child Health and Diseases Nursing Course. In the study in which 186 nursing students volunteered to participate, the study was completed with 174 students, since the answers of 12 students did not contain metaphors. 174 students who took the course participated in the research.
The data were collected using the Student Information Form and the metaphor sentence "Child abuse is like … because…" questioning the perceptions of child abuse from June to August 2021.
At the time of the research, it was determined that all third and fourth year nursing students who took the Child Health and Diseases Nursing course in the institution had negative metaphors about "child abuse". The harm caused by child abuse to the child and the future has often been compared to natural disasters and catastrophes. Metaphors produced for the perception of "Child Abuse"; it is grouped under a total of five categories: Disaster, Damage, Never Beginning, Never Been Like Before, and Hunting.
Child abuse is a medical, pediatric and public health problem that must be reported. Nursing students' perceptions of the subject are very important, as it is among the duties, responsibilities and roles of nurses. The fact that child abuse is perceived by student nurses as the strong hurting the weak, the irreversible harm, or the fact that something good ends before it begins, reveals the importance of the situation. It clearly reflects the necessity of a course on child abuse in the nursing curriculum.
It is important to evaluate the perceptions of child abuse of nursing undergraduate students. @dilek_fatos.
虐待儿童是一个重要的公共卫生问题，因为它会对儿童的发育以及儿童家庭乃至社会产生负面影响。护士是照顾虐待儿童受害者团队中最重要的成员之一，在儿童及家庭教育方面不可或缺。
开展这项研究以确定修读儿童健康与疾病护理课程的大三和大四护理专业学生通过隐喻对虐待儿童的看法。
该研究采用基于现象学方法的隐喻分析技术进行。“隐喻分析”是定性研究方法中基于现象学研究方法的一种技术。
该研究在土耳其的一所国立大学进行。
研究总体为某机构护理系学生，样本为修读儿童健康与疾病护理课程的大三和大四护理专业学生。在186名自愿参与的护理专业学生中，由于12名学生的回答不包含隐喻，最终174名学生完成了研究。174名修读该课程的学生参与了研究。
2021年6月至8月期间，使用学生信息表和隐喻句子“虐待儿童就像……因为……”收集数据，以询问对虐待儿童的看法。
研究时发现，该机构所有修读儿童健康与疾病护理课程的大三和大四护理专业学生对“虐待儿童”都有负面隐喻。虐待儿童对儿童及未来造成的伤害常被比作自然灾害和灾难。为“虐待儿童”认知所产生的隐喻共分为五类：灾难、损害、从未开始、前所未有的、捕猎。
虐待儿童是一个必须报告的医学、儿科及公共卫生问题。护理专业学生对该主题的看法非常重要，因为这属于护士的职责、责任和角色范畴。学生护士将虐待儿童视为强者伤害弱者、不可逆转的伤害，或者是好事未开始就结束的事实，这凸显了该情况的重要性。这清楚地反映了护理课程中开设虐待儿童课程的必要性。
评估护理本科生对虐待儿童的看法很重要。@dilek_fatos
