Kemoterapi Alan Kanser Hastalarının Kanserle İlgili Çevrimiçi Bilgi Arama Niyetlerinin Belirleyicileri
Abstract
Amaç: Bu araştırmada, kanser hastalarının internet üzerinden kanserle ilgili bilgi arama niyetlerini etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmaktadır.
Materyal ve Metot: Araştırma, genel tarama modellerinden kesit alma yaklaşımı ve ilişkisel tarama modeli bağlamında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler Nisan-Kasım 2021 tarihleri arasında Sakarya Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Onkoloji Bölümü’nde tedavi gören kişilerden yüz yüze anket tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmaya 18-84 yaş aralığında (Yaş: 49,93 ± 12,45) kanser teşhisi alan 140 kadın (Yaş: 47,10 ± 10,78) ve 100 erkek (Yaş: 53,88 ± 13,58) olmak üzere 240 kişi gönüllü olarak katılmıştır.
Bulgular: Gerçekleştirilen aşamalı regresyon analizi sonucu hastaların internetten sağlık bilgisi arama niyeti üzerinde, tutum, bilgi kaynağı erişilebilirliği ve bilgi kaynağı kalitesi faktörlerinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı pozitif etkisi olduğu, buna karşın kolaylaştırıcı koşulların istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığı belirlenmiştir.
Sonuç: Araştırma sonuçlarının kanser hastalarının bilgi arama davranışlarının anlaşılmasına ve başarılı bir şekilde yönetilebilmesine rehberlik sunacağı öngörülmektedir.

Determinants of Cancer-Related Online Information-Seeking Intentions of Cancer Patients Receiving Chemotherapy
Abstract
Objective: In this research, we aimed to determine the factors affecting cancer patients' intention to seek cancer-related information online.
Materials and Methods: The research was carried out in the context of the cross-section approach and relational survey model among the general survey models. Data were collected by a face-to-face survey from people treated at Sakarya University Faculty of Medicine, Oncology Department between April and November 2021. Total of 240 people voluntarily participated in the research, including 140 females (Age:47.10±10.78) and 100 males (Age:53.88±13.58) diagnosed with cancer in the 18-84 age range (Age:49.93±12.45).
Results: As a result of the stepwise regression analysis, the factors of attitude, ISA, and ISQ had a statistically significant positive effect on the patient's intention to search for health information on the Internet, whereas facilitating conditions did not have a statistically significant effect.
Conclusion: It is anticipated that the research results will provide guidance for understanding and successfully managing the information-seeking behaviours of cancer patients.
