Article Individual Domain Satisfaction Contributing to Nursing Students’ Subjective Well-Being: Family, Education and Health(BMC, 2026) Harkin, Sirin; Sari, TugbaIntroduction and aim Subjective Well-Being(SWB), defined as individuals' level of satisfaction based on their subjective evaluations of their own lives, has been shown to protect individuals from illnesses and help them successfully navigate life transitions. The SWB of nursing students (NSs), who are in a critical transitional phase between adolescence and adulthood, is associated with better physical and mental health, which in turn enhances their ability to provide quality care to patients. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between NSs SWB and their demographic characteristics, as well as satisfaction with family, school, and health-related domains, and to assess the impact of these variables on SWB. Methods The study data were collected from 650 nursing students using a descriptive and cross-sectional design, determined through G*Power analysis. Personal Information Form and Subjective Well-Being Scale were used for data collection. Statistical analyses included Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests, while multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine the contribution of variables to SWB. Results First, the SWBS score of NSs was 158 +/- 24, and SWB levels were found to be associated with demographic factors such as age, gender, parental education level, and place of residence (p < 0.05). Second, a democratic family environment and positive family relationships were associated with higher SWB (p < 0.05). Additionally, SWB was linked to perceived physical and mental health satisfaction and satisfaction with educational experiences (p < 0.05). The regression model revealed that independent variables accounted for 32.6% of the variance in the dependent variable. Conclusion and recommendations The SWB level of NSs was moderate and influenced by various factors. These findings underscore the importance of interventions targeting family, school, and health domains in supporting students' academic and personal development. It may be beneficial for educators to consider factors associated with SWB when designing educational content and practices.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Knowledge Levels and Attitudes of Turkish Nursing Students Regarding Medical Device-Related Pressure Injuries and Factors Influencing Them: a Cross-Sectional Study(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Erzincanli, Saadet; Kisacik, Oznur Gurlek; Sonmez, Munevver; Gürlek Kısacık, ÖznurAim: The aim of this study was to determine nursing students' levels of knowledge and attitudes regarding medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPIs), as well as the factors influencing these. Materials and methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with 581 nursing students between January and May 2024. Data were collected using the Student Information Form, the Medical Device Related Pressure Injury Knowledge Assessment Test (MDRPI-KAT), and the Medical Device Related Pressure Injury Attitude Questionnaire (MDRPI-AQ). Results: The nursing students had a mean score of 8.76 +/- 2.68 on the MDRPI-KAT, indicating an overall correct answer percentage of 54.7%. The mean total score on the MDRPI-AQ was 44.08 +/- 8.12. Furthermore, 75.0% of the nursing students (n = 436) achieved a positive attitude score (>40 points). According to the results of the structural equation model, the scores on the MDRPI-KAT among nursing students had a statistically significant effect on their scores on the MDRPI-AQ (beta = 0.585, p = 0.002). Conclusion: This study found that the nursing students exhibited insufficient knowledge about MDRPIs.Despite this, the nursing students demonstrated a positive attitude toward MDRPIs.
