Özet

Purpose To determine the nursing students' sexual myths and attitudes regarding sexuality, and to explore their views towards sexual care in practice. Design and Methods A mixed-method sequential explanatory design was used. Data were collected using Questionnaire Form, Sexual Myths Scale (SMS), Sexual Attitude and Beliefs Scale (SABS), and Focus-Group Interview Form. Findings The average scores on the SMS and the SABS were 58.66 +/- 18.74 and 37.50 +/- 6.97, respectively, indicating students' sexual myths and their attitudes regarding sexuality were moderate. A positive, significant correlation was found between SMS and SABS scores (p < 0.001). In the interviews, the views on the barriers and facilitators in sexual care and the negative effect of sexual myths on sexual care were revealed. Practice Implications Courses regarding sexuality should include into nursing curriculum from the first years of undergraduate education.
