Brief Summary

Determining the knowledge, attitudes and self-efficacy of nursing students in the field of sexual health care is important for the development and planning of nursing education and research. There is no Turkish tool in the literature that will enable a comprehensive assessment of nursing students' knowledge, attitudes and self-efficacy towards sexual health care. The aim of the study is to determine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the three scales (knowledge, attitude, self-efficacy) in the "Sexual Healthcare Questionnaire" for nursing students. This is a methodological study. These scales translated into Turkish language. Data will be collected in April 2023 through an online questionnaire from nursing students at a public university in Turkey. The test-retest will be performed again after 4 weeks. At least 310 participants from 2nd and 3rd year nursing students will be included in the study.
