ÖZET
 Amaç: Hemşirelik son sınıf öğrencilerinin hemşirelikte araştırma ve gelişmelere ilişkin farkındalık tutumları ve eleştirel düşünme becerilerinin belirlenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı tipte yapılan çalışmanın evrenini hemşirelik son sınıf öğrencileri (n=106) oluşturmuştur. Örneklem seçimi yapılmamış olup, çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 86 öğrenci ile araştırma sonlandırılmıştır. Veriler, tanımlayıcı anket formu, Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin, Hemşirelikte Araştırma ve Gelişmelere Yönelik Farkındalık ve Tutumu Ölçeği ve Kaliforniya Eleştirel Düşünme Eğilimi Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın uygulanabilmesi için, kurum izni, etik kurul izni ve öğrencilerden sözel onam alınmıştır. Verilerin analizinde; yüzdelik, ortalama, standart sapma, Kruskall Wallis, Mann-Whitney U, Spearman korelasyon testleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmada öğrencilerin hemşirelikte araştırma ve gelişmelere yönelik farkındalık ve tutumlarının olumlu (115,87±16,16) iken, %94,2'sinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerinin düşük olduğu saptanmıştır. Çalışmada, öğrencilerin cinsiyet ile Araştırma, Gelişmelere Karşı Farkındalık ve Tutum Ölçeği toplam puanları aralarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmaktadır. Okunan kitap sayısı ile Araştırma, Gelişmelere Karşı Farkındalık ve Tutum Ölçeği toplam puanı ve Kaliforniya Eleştirel Düşünme Eğilimi ölçeği toplam puan alt boyutlarından sistematiklik, meraklılık alt boyutları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ölçek toplam puanları arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı olmayan ilişki bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Çalışmada, öğrencilerin araştırma ve gelişmeye karşı tutumları olumlu iken, eleştirel düşünme becerilerinin düşük olduğu saptanmıştır. Öğrencilerin eleştirel düşünme becerisi ve araştırma kültürünün geliştirilmesinde, bu konuya yönelik eğitim etkinliklerinin yapılması önerilebilmektedir.

ABSTRACT
 Objective: This research has been carried out to determine senior nursing students' attitudes towards research and development and critical thinking skills in nursing. Material and Methods: Target population of this qualitative research consists of senior nursing school students (n=106). There has been no sampling selection and study has been finalized with 86 students, who agreed to participate in the research. Data were collected with descriptive survey forms, Nursing Students' Attitude and Awareness Towards Research and Development in Nursing Scale, California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory. To conduct the research, institutional permission, ethics committee approval and verbal approvals were obtained. While analyzing the data, percentage and mean standard deviation, and Kruskall Wallis, Mann-Whitney U, Spearman correlation tests were utilized. Results: While the awareness and attitude of the students towards research and development in nursing were positive (115.87±16.16), it was observed that 94.2% of the students had a low disposition towards critical thinking. In the study, a statistically significant difference between students' genders and Attitude and Awareness Towards Research and Development total scores was observed. It was determined that number of books read causes a systematic difference between Attitude and Awareness Towards Research and Development Scale total scores, and California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory total scores subscales and a statistically meaningful difference between curiosity subscale. It was observed that there was not a significant relationship between the scale scores in the positive direction. Conclusion: In the research, the students' attitudes towards research and development were found to be positive while the critical thinking skills were low. To develop critical thinking skills and research culture of the students, it may be suggested to organize educational activities on the subject.
