Özet:

 Objectives: To examine the relationship between technology addiction, life satisfaction and psychological flexibility levels in nursing students. Method: The descriptivecross-sectional study was conducted between 20.12.2022 and 20.02.2023 with 449 students in the nursing department of a university in the west of Turkey. Data was collected based on self-reporting with a personal information form, the Technology Addiction Scale, the Life Satisfaction Scale, and the Psychological Resilience Scale forms. Results: According to the total mean score of the Technology Addiction Scale, 41.6 of the students participating in the study were calculated as moderately addicted, 36.1 as lowly addicted, 20 as highly addicted, 1.6 as fully addicted and 0.7 as not addicted. There is a negative, very weak relationship between instant messaging and the Life Satisfaction Scale, which are sub-dimensions of the Technology Addiction Scale r-0.144; p0.002, and a positive, very weak relationship between online gaming and the Life Satisfaction Scale r0.136; p0.004 was determined. A positive, weak relationship r0.171; p0.000 was found between the mean scores of the Technology Addiction Scale and the Psychological Flexibility Scale. Conclusion: The majority of students had a moderate level of technology addiction. Online gaming increases life satisfaction. It is recommended that training be planned to prevent technology addiction caused by technology, which has become a part of our lives as our students continue their education with the distance education model during disasters such as the COVID-19 pandemic and earthquake.

 Amaç: Hemşirelik öğrencilerinde teknoloji bağımlılığı ile yaşam doyumu ve psikolojik esneklik arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek. Yöntem: Kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı tipteki araştırma, 20.12.2022-20.02.2023 tarihleri arasında Türkiyenin batısındaki bir üniversitede 449 öğrenciyle yapılmıştır. Verilerin toplanması, kişisel bilgi formu, Teknoloji Bağımlılığı Ölçeği, Yaşam Doyum Ölçeği ve Psikolojik Esneklik Ölçeği formları ile sağlanmıştır. Bulgular: Teknoloji Bağımlılığı Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamasına göre çalışmaya katılan öğrencilerin 41.6sı orta düzeyde bağımlı, 36.1i düşük düzeyde bağımlı, 20si oldukça bağımlı, 1.6sı tam bağımlı ve 0.7si bağımlı değil olarak hesaplanmıştır. Teknoloji Bağımlılığı Ölçeği alt boyutlarından anlık mesajlaşma ile Yaşam Doyum Ölçeği arasında negatif, çok zayıf bir ilişki r-0.144; p0.002 ve çevrimiçi oyun oynama ile Yaşam Doyum Ölçeği arasında pozitif, çok zayıf bir ilişki r0.136; p0.004 saptanmıştır. Teknoloji Bağımlılığı Ölçeği ve Psikolojik Esneklik Ölçeği puan ortalamaları arasında pozitif, zayıf bir ilişki r0.171; p0.000 bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Öğrencilerin büyük çoğunluğunda orta düzeyde teknoloji bağımlılığı olduğu bulunmuştur. Çevrimiçi oyun oynama yaşam doyumunu artırmaktadır. Covid-19 pandemisi ve deprem gibi felaketlerle birlikte öğrencilerimizin uzaktan eğitim modeli ile öğrenimlerine devam etmesi ile yaşamımızın bir parçası haline dönüşen teknolojinin yol açtığı teknoloji bağımlılığını önlemeye yönelik eğitimlerin planlanması önerilmektedir.
