Adolesan Sağlığının Izlenmesinde Aile,Okul ve Aile Hekiminin Rolü
Özet
The aim of this research was to determine adolescents’ risk taking behaviors, life
styles; evaluating at the level of family, school and health services; enhancing
suggestions for family, school and health services coordination in order to protect and
improve adolescents’ health. First phase of the study was coss-sectional and the second
phase was case-control type epidemiologic study. First phase of the study was
conducted at eight middle-low income schools. No sample was selected and 1462
students were attained. Risky Health Behaviors Scale (RHBS) was used to determine
adolescents with risk taking behaviors. At the second phase; 156 students were
selected and information was gathered from their mothers, teachers and family
practitioners. SPSS 21.0 were used for analyzes. Risk taking behaviors and risky health
behaviors (RHB) were common at high schools. The awareness of healthy life
behaviors weren’t develop adequately. It was seen that some RHBs had tendency to
be seen together. Males, negative family attitudes, low socioeconomical status and low
academical achievement were the risk factors of RHB. There wasn’t a consistency
between adolescents’ answers and familys’, teachers’ and family practitioners’
answers on RHBs and family attitudes. Family, teacher and family practitioner are the
closest social environment of an adolescent. They should have good communication
skills in order to monitor the adolescent and RHBs. Family practitioner should
consider all of the RHBs while evaluating the individuals holistically. Regarding to
RHBs of adolescent period, multidisiciplinary, physical, physchological and social
approach covering family, teacher and family practitioner would provide healthy
outputs at adolescent health and development.
