Abstract

Introduction: Transforming master's theses into publication is important for sharing scientific knowledge.
Aim: This study was conducted to determine the conversion rate of internal medicine nursing master's theses made in Turkey into scientific articles.
Method: Between December 2019 and February 2020, the thesis database of the Council of Higher Education of the Republic of Turkey was used. All master theses are held, as a legal requirement, and were searched for "Internal Medicine Nursing" and "Nursing" master theses completed between 2004 and 2018. The publication rate of these theses was found by searching for the names of thesis author and supervisor on the following databases: PubMed, Thomson Reuters Web of Science, Google Scholar, Turkish Medline, and Turkish Academic Network and Information Center National Academic Network.
Results: More than thirty (31.4%) of 616 theses included in the study were published in Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded and Social Sciences Citation Index, 3.5% in Emerging Sources Citation Index, 25.0% in other international refereed journals, 19.9% in national academic network and information center, and 20.2% in other national refereed journals.
Conclusion: It was determined that less than half of the master's theses in the field of internal medicine nursing were published and that, of these published theses, less than half appeared in journals covered by Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, or Social Sciences Citation Index. Solutions must be generated to promote the Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, or Social Sciences Citation Index publication of master theses.

Abstract

Giriş: Yüksek lisans tezlerinin yayına dönüştürülmesi, bilimsel bilginin paylaşılması için önem arz etmektedir.
Amaç: Bu çalışma Türkiye’de yapılan iç hastalıkları hemşireliği yüksek lisans tezlerinin bilimsel makalelere dönüşme oranlarını belirlemek amacıyla sistematik derleme şeklinde yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Çalışmada Aralık 2019 ile Şubat 2020 tarihleri arasında, Yüksek Öğretim Kurulu Tez Merkezi veri tabanında Anabilim Dalı “İç Hastalıkları Hemşireliği” ve tez konu alanı “Hemşirelik” olan ve 2004-2018 yılları arasında hazırlanmış olan yüksek lisans tezleri taranmıştır. Bu tezlerin yayınlanma oranın belirlenmesi için birçok veritabanı (PubMed, Thomson Reuters Web of Science, Google Scholar, Türk Medline ve Ulusal Akademik Ağ ve Bilgi Merkezi) tez adı, yazarı ve danışmanın adı kullanılarak taranmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışma kapsamına alınan 616 tezin %31,4’ünün Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded veya Social Sciences Citation Index, %3,5’inin Emerging Sources Citation Index kapsamına giren dergilerde, %25,0’ının diğer uluslararası hakemli dergilerde, %19,9’unun Türk Medline ve Ulusal Akademik Ağ ve Bilgi Merkezi tarafından taranan ulusal hakemli dergilerde, %20,2’sinin ise diğer ulusal hakemli dergilerde yayımlandığı tespit edilmiştir.
Sonuç: İç hastalıkları hemşireliği alanında yapılan yüksek lisans tezlerinin yarısından fazlasının yayına dönüştürülmediği saptanmıştır. Yayına dönüşen çalışmaların yarısından daha azının Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded veya Social Sciences Citation Index kapsamına giren dergilerde yayımlandığı tespit edilmiştir.
