Özet

The study is designed as quasi experimental including pre-test and post-test. The sample of the study is consisted of 98 students who are taking the Forensic Nursing course in the second year of the School of Nursing at a university. The mean score obtained from the test on the knowledge of forensic evidence before the training was 23.63 +/- 5.24 while the mean score after the training was 33.32 +/- 4.54. A statistically significant difference was found when the average scores of the students were compared before and after the course of forensic nursing. It was revealed that the course of forensic nursing taken by the students has a positive effect on the knowledge of forensic evidence of students and increases their knowledge level. The results suggest to add a course of forensic nursing as an elective or mandatory course to the curriculum of nursing programs and disseminate the postgraduate education on forensic nursing.
