The research sample was composed of 283 academics employed at the Sihhiye and Beytepe campuses, selected through a stratified sampling method. This study determined that women generally take academic leave for three or more months due to personal reasons such as pregnancy and child care, while men usually take academic leave for professional purposes. It was also found that the average number of publications for men and women are similar, even though female academics assume more responsibilities due to traditional gender roles, such as housework and child care, and they allocate less time to research in the workplace and at home. It was also found that 39.2% of women and 23.7% of men stated that they were not content with their working hours, and a majority of these women desired increased flexibility. Moreover, 54.8% of female academic...

Thus, they require more healthcare services in the CI and nursing services in particular. CI nurses also have the opportunity to teach protecting and improving health behaviors to these women who are difficult to reach in the community. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nursing services provided in CIs on the health behaviors and physical health levels of females. The quasi-experimental study was conducted on 30 female subjects. In this study were used the "nursing diagnosis numbers", "knowledge, behavior and status points" and "Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile II points" to evaluate the nursing services. Statistical analyses were performed using numbers, percentages, means, medians, standard deviations, and the Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney U, Wilcoxon and McNemar tests. We found mostly physiological problems (oral health, digestion-hydration, circulation, reproductive function, discomfort / pain and respiration) and to a lesser extent health behavior problems (nutrition, health care supervision, physical activity, substance use, sleep and rest patterns) in the subjects. Nursing services provided in the course of the study resulted in a positive effect on the knowledge, behavior and status points regarding the physiological and health behaviors of the subjects (p˂0.05). At the end of the study, it was found that nursing services provided in CIs have a positive effect on the health behaviors and physical health levels of the females.Ceza infaz kurumuna (CİK) giren kadınlar genel topluma ve erkek mahpuslara göre daha fazla fiziksel sağlık problemine sahiptirler. Bu nedenle, CİK'lerde verilecek sağlık hizmetlerine özellikle hemşirelik hizmetlerine daha fazla gereksinim duyarlar. CİK hemşireleri, toplumda ulaşılması zor olan bu kadınlara sağlığı koruyucu ve geliştirici davranışları kazandırabilmek için, cik'lerde önemli bir fırsata da sahip olurlar. Bu araştırma, CİK'te sunulan hemşirelik hizmetlerinin kadınların sağlık davranışları ve fiziksel sağlık düzeylerine etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma, yarı deneysel tasarım modelinde olup, 30 kadın mahpusla yürütülmüştür. Hemşirelik hizmetlerinin etkinliğinin değerlendirilmesinde "hemşirelik tanı sayıları", "bilgi, davranış ve durum puanları" ve "Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları Ölçeği II puanları" kullanılmıştır. İstatistiksel analizlerde sayı, yüzde, ortalama, ortanca, standart sapma, Kruskal Wallis, Mann Whitney U, Wilcoxon ve McNemar Testleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular kadınların en fazla fizyolojik problemlerinin (ağız sağlığı, sindirim- hidrasyon, dolaşım, üreme, rahatsızlık / ağrı ve solunum) ve daha az oranda sağlık davranışları (beslenme, sağlık bakım denetimi, fiziksel aktivite, madde kullanımı, uyku ve dinlenme) problemlerinin varlığını göstermiştir. Araştırmada hemşirelik hizmetleri kadınların fizyolojik ve sağlık davranışları problemlerine yönelik bilgi, davranış ve durum puanlarında olumlu yönde artış meydana getirmiştir (p˂0.05). Araştırma sonucunda CİK'te verilen hemşirelik hizmetlerinin kadınların sağlık davranışları ve fiziksel sağlık düzeylerine olumlu yönde katkı sağladığı bulunmuştur

The research was conducted descriptively and cross-sectionally with a sample of 233 people working in a railway factory in Ankara. The data collection form and Family Planning Attitude Scale (FPAS) were used to collect the data. The mean age of the participants was 43.53 ± 7.86, and 58.4% were high school graduates. The highest score average possible in the FPAS was 170, whereas in this study, it was found to be 137.59 ± 20.20. The men scored 61.00 ± 10.61 in the “Attitude of Society towards FP” sub-dimensions; 44.61 ± 8.20 in the “Attitude towards FP methods” sub-dimension; and 31.97 ± 6.90 in the “Attitude towards Birth” sub-dimension of the FPAS. As a result of the research, it was seen that age, education, family structure and social security affect the attitude towards FP.
