Bu araştırma, ebelik bölümünde okuyan öğrencilerin meslek seçiminde meslek hakkındaki duyguları, doğuma bakış açıları ve ailelerinin doğum hikayeleri ile olan ilgisini değerlendirmek amacıyla planlanmıştır. Araştırma, 2021-2022 eğitim öğretim yılında İstanbul’da bir vakıf üniversitesinin Ebelik bölümüne kayıtlı olan 1.ve 2. sınıf toplam 129 öğrenci ile yapıldı. Verilerin toplanmasında çevrimiçi anket uygulanan nicel bir tasarım kullanılmıştır. Bu çevrimiçi anket “Anket Formu” ve “Ebelik Aidiyet Ölçeği” olmak üzere iki kısımdan oluşmuştur. Öğrencileri %59,7’sini meslek seçimlerinde ailesinin etkili olduğu, %82,2’sinin mesleği isteyerek seçtiği, %44,18’nin mesleğe olan ilgi sebebiyle seçtiğini ifade etmiştir. Öğrencilerin %27,9’unun annesinin zor doğuma maruz kaldığı, %32,5’nun ise ailesinde zor doğum hikayesi yaşadığı, %43,41’nin zor doğum hikayesi duyduğunda üzüldüğünü bildirmiştir. Öğrencilere “mesleği isteyerek seçme”, “annenin zor doğuma maruz kalma” durumlarına ilişkin yöneltilen sorulara “evet” ve “hayır” yanıtını verenler Ebelik aidiyet düzeyi açısından karşılaştırıldığında evet diyenler lehine istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur (sırasıyla p=0.003; p=0.002). Yapılan regresyon analiz sonucuna göre, Ebelik mesleğini isteyerek seçme (t=1.950 p<0.000) ve tercih etme nedeninin (t=1.077 p<0.000) Ebelik Aidiyet Ölçeği üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisinin olduğu görülmektedir. Sonuçlar, doğuma doğrudan tanık olma veya doğum hikayesini dinlemeye maruz kalmanın öğrencilerin ebelik mesleğinin seçilmesi üzerinde önemli bir etkisi oldu. Bu bulgular, doğumla ilgili sosyal söylemlerin güçlü olduğunu ve özellikle gençlerin doğum algısı ve ebenin rolü üzerinde etkili olabileceğini göstermektedir.

Do the Birth Stories That Midwifery Students Hear in Their Families Affect Their Profession Choices and Profession Belonging? A Cross-Sectional Study

Öz

This research was planned to evaluate the feelings of the students studying in the midwifery department about the profession, their perspectives on birth and the interest of their families with birth stories in their choice of profession. The research was conducted with a total of 129 students in the 2nd grade of 1.ve enrolled in the Midwifery B death of a foundation university in Istanbul in the 2021-2022 academic year. A quantitative design using an online survey was used to collect the data. This online questionnaire consists of two parts: "Questionnaire Form" and "Midwifery Belonging Scale". It was stated that 59.7% of the students were influenced by their families in their career choices, 82.2% chose the profession willingly, and 44.18% chose it because of their interest in the profession. 27.9% of the students reported that their mother was exposed to difficult birth, 32.5% had a history of difficult birth in their family, and 43.41% were upset when they heard a difficult birth story. When the students who answered "yes" and "no" to the questions about "choosing the profession willingly" and "the mother's exposure to difficult birth" were compared in terms of midwifery belonging level, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of those who said yes (p=0.003; p=0.002, respectively). According to the results of the regression analysis, it is seen that choosing the midwifery profession voluntarily (t=1.950 p<0.000) and the reason for choosing (t=1.077 p<0.000) have a statistically significant effect on the Midwifery Belonging Scale. The results showed that exposure to directly witnessing or listening to the birth story had a significant impact on students' choice of midwifery career. These findings show that social discourses about birth are strong and may have an impact on the perception of birth and the role of the midwife, especially among young people.
