Özet:

 


Aim: This
research aimed to assess the perception of the health locus of control in
nursing and technical sciences students.


Methods: The study conducted
at one state university in 2014 and consisted of 413 (192 nursing, 222
technical sciences) students. Data were obtained with the Multidimensional
Health Locus of Control Scale, and a survey about the socio-demographic and
some of the health behaviors of students and evaluated with percentage,
frequency, median, standard deviation, ANOVA, t and Tukey tests.


Results: The
school type of students were observed to affect their health locus of control
perceptions. Students who exercised regularly had more internal control, whereas
students who do not drink alcohol were more deterministic in terms of their
health. 









Conclusion: Students
should be encouraged to improve a sense of responsibility in health and
disease, and enhance internal health locus of control.
