dc.description.abstractObjective: This study was aimed at investigating the attitudes and information of midwifery students towars lesbians and gay males. Method: Four hundred and five midwifery students were included into this descriptive study. The demographic information questionnaire, the homosexuality attittudes scale and the information form for homosexuality were used to gather the data. Results: While median age of study participants was 20 (18-31), median the homosexuality attittudes scale and the information form for homosexuality scores were 174 (118-239) and 11 (5-20), respectively. Participants may be suggested to have high negative/homophobic attitudes. There was a statistically significant association between median the homosexuality attittudes scale’s score, and students’ class years, location where students lived longest and perceived income level (p<0.05). Additionally, a statistically significant association was observed between median the information form for homosexuality’s score, and students’ family type, perceived income level and parents’ educational status (p<0.05). A negative and poor significant correlation was observed between median the homosexuality attittudes scale’s score and students’ age level, (p<0.05). There was a positive and poor statistically significant correlation was found between median the information form for homosexuality and the homosexuality attittudes scale’s scores (p<0.05). In our study, the level of students’ knowledge about homosexuals was found to significantly (p<0.05) affect their attitudes. Conclusion: In our study, it was concluded that midwifery students’ attitudes towards lesbians and gay males were negative, and information level was insufficient.tr_TR
