Abstract

This study was carried out with the aim of determining the maternal/paternal attitudes of nursing undergraduate students. The study was planned as descriptive. Data were collected during the period of December 2014 by conducting "Maternal/Paternal Attitudes Scale" and "socio-demographic questionnaire" on 207 students; number was analyzed by using average percent. While democratic maternal attitude score was 62.9 ± 0.7, the average score of this sub-dimension was determined as 57.7 ± 0.9 for paternal attitudes. When analyzed the protective maternal/paternal attitudes, it was seen that this sub-dimension score was 37.9 ± 0.7 for mothers, and it was 36.3 ± 0.7 for fathers. When analyzed the authoritarian maternal/paternal attitudes, it was determined that this dimension score was 19.5 ± 0.4 for mothers, and it was 21.9 ± 0.5 for fathers. It was determined that democratic maternal and paternal attitude scores of the students were higher than authoritarian and indifferent maternal and paternal attitude scores.
