Özet:

 Objective: This study is carried out to determine the health beliefs of academician nurses regarding HPV human papillomavirus infection and HPV vaccine and the factors influencing these beliefs. Methods: This study, which has a descriptive and cross-sectional research design, was conducted with 201 academician nurses who have been actively working at universities in Turkey between August and October 2020. The research data were obtained using the Personal Information Form and the Health Belief Model Scale on the Human Papillomavirus Infection and Vaccination. Results: The perceived susceptibility of the participants, who were vaccinated with the HPV vaccine, was found to be high, whereas their perceived barriers were found to be low. Additionally, the perceived susceptibility of those, who stated that they did not get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine since they were not in the risk group, was found to be low, whereas the perceived barriers of those, who stated that they did not get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine since it is expensive, was found to be high. On the other hand, the perceived benefits of those, who stated that they would get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine if the vaccine were free of charge, were found to be high, whereas the perceived susceptibility of those, who stated that they would get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine if a considerable number of people get vaccinated, was found to be low. Conclusion: It has been concluded as a result of the study that strengthening the health beliefs of academician nurses about HPV vaccine would be effective in raising awareness about vaccination with the HPV vaccine.

 Amaç: Bu araştırma, akademisyen hemşirelerin HPV enfeksiyonu ve aşısına ilişkin sağlık inancını ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel nitelikteki araştırma, Ağustos-Ekim 2020 tarihleri arasında Türkiyedeki üniversitelerde aktif çalışan 201 akademisyen hemşire ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma verileri, kişisel veri formu ve Human Papilloma Virüs Enfeksiyonu ve Aşılanmasına ilişkin Sağlık İnanç Modeli Ölçeği ile elde edilmiştir. Bulgular: Katılımcılardan HPV aşısı yaptıranların duyarlılık algısı yüksek iken, engel algısı düşük bulunmuştur. Risk grubunda olmadığı için aşı yaptırmadığını belirtenlerin duyarlılık algısı düşük iken, aşı pahalı olduğu için yaptırmadığını söyleyenlerin engel algısı yüksektir. Aşı ücretsiz olması durumunda yaptıracağını belirtenlerin yarar algısı yüksek iken, fazla kişinin aşı yaptırması durumunda aşı yaptıracağını belirtenlerin duyarlılık algısı düşük çıkmıştır. Sonuç: Akademisyen hemşirelerin, HPV aşısına yönelik sağlık inançlarının arttırılmasının aşılama ile ilgili farkındalığı arttırmada etkili olacağı düşünülmektedir.
