To determine the sustainable development awareness and related factors in nursing students.
Sustainable Development Goals have an important place in nursing education. While the Sustainable Development Goals set out the determinants of health, they also provide guidance to nurses for their interventions. In this respect, it is important to determine the awareness of nursing students and to address this issue in nursing education.
Correlational descriptive study.
A total of 199 Turkish nursing students were included in the study. Data were collected online through Google Forms between March and June 2021 by the demographic characteristics form and "Sustainable Development Awareness Scale".
The mean age of the nursing students in the study was 20.18 ( ± 1.27) years. Students' mean score from the scale was 164.41 ( ± 15.13) points. While 63.8 % of the participants stated not hearing of the sustainable development concept before and 77.4 % of them did not know about Sustainable Development Goals. The social sustainability, environmental sustainability and total scale scores were determined to show significant differences between the genders and female participants got higher scores compared with males. Participants over the age of twenty were found to score significantly higher in the environmental sustainability sub-dimension. According to the status of thinking that there is a relationship between sustainable development and nursing, the environmental sustainability scores of the students were found to differ statistically. According to the status of wanting to get more information about Sustainable Development Goals, the economic sustainability, environmental sustainability and total scale scores of the students were found to show a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05).
The sustainable development awareness levels of nursing students were found to be higher than the average. While more than half of the participants stated not hearing of the sustainable development concept before and three quarters of them did not know about Sustainable Development Goals. In this study, the scale total or sub-dimension scores were found to show significant differences according to gender, age, the status of thinking that there is a relationship between sustainable development and nursing and the status of wanting to get more information about Sustainable Development Goals. To mobilize future nurses, it can be suggested that SDGs be added to the curriculum, considering their knowledge and willingness.
了解护理学生的可持续发展意识及其相关因素。
可持续发展目标在护理教育中占有重要地位。虽然可持续发展目标确定了健康的决定因素，但它们也为护士的干预措施提供了指导。在这方面，确定护理学生的意识并在护理教育中解决这个问题很重要。
相关性描述性研究。
共有 199 名土耳其护理学生参与了这项研究。2021 年 3 月至 6 月，通过在线谷歌表单收集了学生的人口统计学特征和“可持续发展意识量表”的数据。
研究中护理学生的平均年龄为 20.18（±1.27）岁。学生在量表上的平均得分为 164.41（±15.13）分。63.8%的参与者表示之前没有听说过可持续发展的概念，77.4%的参与者不知道可持续发展目标。在性别方面，社会可持续性、环境可持续性和总分的得分存在显著差异，女性参与者的得分高于男性。年龄在 20 岁以上的参与者在环境可持续性子维度上的得分显著更高。根据认为可持续发展与护理之间存在关系的想法的状态，学生的环境可持续性得分存在统计学差异。根据希望获得更多关于可持续发展目标信息的状态，学生的经济可持续性、环境可持续性和总分的得分存在统计学差异（p<0.05）。
护理学生的可持续发展意识水平高于平均水平。虽然超过一半的参与者表示之前没有听说过可持续发展的概念，四分之三的人不知道可持续发展目标。在这项研究中，根据性别、年龄、认为可持续发展与护理之间存在关系的想法的状态以及希望获得更多关于可持续发展目标信息的状态，量表总分或子维度的得分存在显著差异。为了动员未来的护士，可以考虑在课程中加入可持续发展目标，考虑到他们的知识和意愿。
