description | INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study is to determine the education and health problems of medicine school students of YYU caused by the earthquake in Van 2011. METHODS: The type of study is descriptive. The study was conducted to 210 students were living in Van when the earthquake had happened. A questionnaire of 23 questions was applied. SPSS 22.0 was used to analysis the data, and it was considered meaningful that p value less than 0.05 and descriptive statistics, chi-square and Fisher's exact test were used in statistical analysis. RESULTS: 70.6% of the participants were male, 29.4% were female. 50.5 % of participants stated that, the residence had little and 30.4% severely damaged. 2.8% had experienced psychological problems after the earthquake, 18.3% had any addiction and 36.5% had developed any fear. 76.9% of the students experienced disruption in their education due to the earthquake, 10.6% stopped the education, 3.8% continued their education in another medical faculty, and 27.3% stated that the school achievement was in decline. The disruption in girls' education and the decline in school achievement were significantly higher than male students (p=0.01, p=0.04, respectively). The decrease in the school achievement of the students experiencing financial distress after the earthquake was significantly higher than that of those who did not experienced financial distress(p=0.02). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The most important result of the study was the disruption of education that the earthquake was caused. A cross-sectional study of students at the YYU campus may provide more informative information on the long-term effects of unusual circumstances. |
