    AIM: This study was conducted to determine factors that motivate Gulhane Military Medical Faculty (GATA) students towards the profession of medicine. METHOD: The population of the study consisted of students studying at the Gulhane Military Medical Faculty in the 2012-2013 academic year. A total of 700 questionnaires were delivered, and 548 were returned. Structural equation modeling (SEM), confirmatory factor analysis, descriptive statistical methods, the significance control test between compared means, and ANOVA test were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: It was observed that Learning Motivation was the primary factor, followed by Intrinsic Motivation as the secondary factor motivating the students. There was a statistically significant difference between the students' years of education and selecting Gulhane Military Medical Faculty (following the Student Selection and Placement Exam administered in Turkey), and the motivational factors. General Motivation, Learning Motivation, and Negative Motivation mean scores of first-year students were higher than the average scores of second- and third-year students. Students who voluntarily chose the Gulhane Military Medical Faculty had higher mean Intrinsic Motivation scores than the others. CONCLUSION: It should be asked students' expectations from medical education, using appealing materials, increasing their interest and willingness in pursuing a medical education and the profession of medicine by forming study groups among students in different years of education.

    A group of asthma patients' treatment related thoughts based on health belief model and perception of medication success
    (Gulhane Military Medical Academy, 2012) Çimen M.; Akbolat M.; Çiftçi F.; Işik O.; Şahin B.
    AIM: This study is a descriptive study which aims to determine the attitude and perceptions of asthma patients about their health and their opinion regarding the success of treatment. METHOD: The study is carried out without any sampling. The participants are 74 patients who were admitted in a public pulmonary disease clinic between April and June 2010. A revised version of Health Belief Model scale for asthma treatment and another scale, which was developed to determine the opinion and observations of patients regarding the success of treatment, are used for data collection. RESULTS: The mean score of attitudes and perceptions of asthma patients, which is defined with the Health Belief Model and which can affect their responsiveness to treatment, is found out 3,37(±0,38) and the attitude and perceptions of patients are positive. The mean value for success treatment is 2,35(±0,49). Since the treatment is deemed to be more successful as it gets closer to 1 hence it can be said that the opinion of asthma patients regarding the success of treatment is positive. In the study, it is found out that the participants have a high admission rate to hospitals and that there is no significant difference for socio-demographic characteristics in the positive attitude development and in their belief in the efficiency of the treatment that they are receiving, of which both are components of health belief model concept. The findings from regression analysis indicate that the duration of the asthma sickness and the number of people living in the household not only affect the perceptions and attitudes of patients that are investigated by health belief model, but also the effectiveness of the treatment and the number of admissions to the Emergency Room in the last 6 months. CONCLUSION: In order to prevent long-term complications, the behavior and attitudes of asthma patients, especially the young ones, regarding asthma should be determined and detailed programs should be organized to educate and inform them. Treatment models, which would enable to receive treatment whilst not to cause any problem in their social and professional life's, should be investigated.
