ÖZET
 Amaç: Bu çalışmada, üniversite öğrencilerinin çocuk istismarı ve ihmali hakkındaki bilgi düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırmanın örneklem grubunu, üniversitede öğrenim gören 367 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcıların demografik özelliklerini ve çocuk istismarı ve ihmali ile ilgili eğitim alıp almadıklarını belirlemeye yönelik olarak 19 sorudan oluşan 'bilgi formu' ile 'Çocuk İstismarı ve İhmalinin Belirti ve Risklerinin Tanılanmasına Yönelik Ölçek Formu' örnekleme uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışma katılımcılarının %71,1'i çocuk istismarı ve ihmali ile ilgili bir seminer ya da konferansa katılmadıklarını, %91,6'sı ise konu ile ilgili daha fazla bilgiye ihtiyaç duyduğunu belirtmiştir. Ölçeğin puan ortalaması 3,61±0,34 olup; kadın öğrencilerin genel ölçek puan ortalaması ile istismarın çocuk üzerindeki fiziksel belirtileri, ihmalin çocuk üzerindeki belirtileri, çocuktaki davranışsal belirtileri ve çocuk istismarı ve ihmalinde ailesel özellikleri alt ölçeklerinde aldıkları puanların, erkek öğrencilere göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Bununla birlikte psikoloji bölümünde okuyan öğrencilerin genel ölçek puanı ve alt ölçek puan ortalamalarının, diğer bölümlerde okuyan öğrencilerden anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu görülmüştür (p<0,05). Sonuç: Yapılan çalışma kapsamında katılımcıların büyük çoğunluğunun bu konuda herhangi bir eğitim, seminer veya konferansa katılmadığını belirtmesi, üniversite öğrencilerinin bu konuda bilgilendirilmesi ve bilinçlendirilmesi çalışmalarının yoğunlaştırılması gerekliliğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Çocuk istismarı; çocuk ihmali; üniversite öğrencileri; bilgi düzeyleri
ABSTRACT
 Objective: This study aims to evaluate the knowledge levels of university students about child abuse and neglect. Material and Methods: The sample group of the study consists of 367 university students. The 'information form' consisting of 19 questions and the 'Scale for Diagnosis of Symptoms and Risks of Child Abuse and Neglect' were applied to determine the demographics and whether they received training on child abuse/neglect. Results: 71.1% of them stated that they did not attend a seminar/conference on child abuse and neglect; 91.6% of them stated that they needed more information. While the average score of the scale is 3.61±0.34, it was found that the overall scale score average of women as well as their scores on the subscales of the physical symptoms of abuse on the child, symptoms of neglect on the child, behavioral symptoms on the child and familial characteristics in the child abuse and neglect were found to be statistically significantly higher than men. In addition to this, it has been observed that the overall scale score and subscale mean scores of the psychology department students are significantly higher than the students of other departments (p<0.05). Conclusion: Within the scope of the study, the majority of the participants stated that they did not attend any training/seminar/conference on this subject and it is necessary to inform university students about this issue and to increase their awareness.
