Abstract

Study aimed to increase university students' sensitivity and the environmental attitudes of secondary school students through environmental education program. It was planned as quasi-experimental research. The first phase was completed with five fourth-year students who took Social Awareness Course at a university's nursing department in Turkey. In second phase, sample consisted of 264 5^th-grade students studying at Secondary School in Black Sea Region. University students implemented Environmental Education Program for secondary school students for four weeks. Mean environmental attitude scale score of 5^th-grade students before education was 2.79 ± 0.32, and after education was 3.51 ± 0.41. A statistically significant difference was determined between mean total scale scores of university and 5^th-grade students before and after education (p ˂ 0.05). It was determined that environmental sensitivity of university students and environmental attitudes of secondary school students were at medium level before Environmental Education Program and high level after education.

大学生参与实施的环境教育计划对中学生环境态度的影响。

研究旨在通过环境教育计划提高大学生的敏感性和中学生的环境态度。研究计划为准实验研究。第一阶段由土耳其一所大学护理系选修社会意识课程的五名四年级学生完成。第二阶段的样本包括 264 名就读于黑海地区中学的五年级学生。大学生为中学生实施了为期四周的环境教育计划。教育前，五年级学生的平均环境态度量表得分为 2.79 ± 0.32，教育后为 3.51 ± 0.41。教育前后大学生和五年级学生的平均总分差异有统计学意义（P ˂0.05）。结果表明，大学生的环境敏感性和中学生的环境态度在环境教育计划之前处于中等水平，而在教育之后则处于较高水平。

期刊介绍： International Journal of Environmental Health Research ( IJEHR ) is devoted to the rapid publication of research in environmental health, acting as a link between the diverse research communities and practitioners in environmental health. Published articles encompass original research papers, technical notes and review articles. IJEHR publishes articles on all aspects of the interaction between the environment and human health. This interaction can broadly be divided into three areas: the natural environment and health – health implications and monitoring of air, water and soil pollutants and pollution and health improvements and air, water and soil quality standards; the built environment and health – occupational health and safety, exposure limits, monitoring and control of pollutants in the workplace, and standards of health; and communicable diseases – disease spread, control and prevention, food hygiene and control, and health aspects of rodents and insects. IJEHR is published in association with the International Federation of Environmental Health and includes news from the Federation of international meetings, courses and environmental health issues.
