Description
Jonathan Niciza, Kemal Elyeli, Umran Dal Yilmaz, and Dilay Necipoglu survey nursing students in Northern Cyprus about contraception knowledge, attitudes, and behavior, in a 2025 study. Nurses will one day counsel patients on family planning, so gaps in their own knowledge matter. Nearly three hundred students filled in forms covering what they know, how they feel, and what they do.
Knowledge scores were low and most students reported using no contraception, even though attitudes toward it were positive. Knowledge rose slightly with age, and knowing more went with better attitudes and behavior. The authors call for stronger, repeated teaching on contraception during nursing training, with checks on whether it sticks.
