The effects of the course on human sexuality on students\u27 knowledge and attitudes about sexual health

Abstract

Sexual health is a guaranteed right that is part of human rights. However, many countries and institutions are reluctant to include programs in this field in their curricula. UBT College is the leader and the only one in the country and region that students have the Human Sexuality module as a compulsory subject. The purpose of this paper was to measure students\u27 knowledge about this field. The methodology used in this research is based on measuring the level of students\u27 knowledge before and after completing the learning module. The SKAT test (The Sex Knowledge and Attitude Test) was used, which consists of two parts: knowledge and attitudes. The research was carried out during the 2022-2023 school year and 178 students of the Department of Nursing at UBT participated. The obtained results have shown significant statistical differences in some of the areas tested in both parts, in knowledge and attitudes. The conclusion of this research states that the effect of this module in increasing knowledge and changing attitudes about sexuality has been effective
