ÖZET
 Amaç: Yapılan bu çalışma ile ön lisans fizyoterapi programlarında öğrenim gören öğrencilerin, mesleki farkındalık düzeylerini ortaya koymak hedeflendi. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu araştırma, 2 ayrı meslek yüksekokulunda öğrenim gören 275 fizyoterapi programı öğrencisi ile gerçekleştirildi. Çalışmanın verileri, katılımcıların demografik bilgilerini ve mesleki farkındalıklarını sorgulayan 25 soruluk çevrim içi bir anket aracılığı ile toplandı. Veriler, %95 güven aralığında, p<0,05 anlamlılık düzeyinde değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan öğrencilerin %76'sı kadın olup; tüm katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 20,06±2,00 idi. Katılımcıların bildirimleri doğrultusunda fizyoterapi teknikerlerinin görev ve sorumlulukları hakkında bilgi sahibi oldukları, meslek seçiminde araştırma yaptıkları, sahip olacakları unvanı bildikleri görüldü. Öğrencilerin, kendi istekleri ve sağlığa ilgi duymaları ya da farklı lisans programlarına geçiş imkânı tanıması nedeniyle fizyoterapi teknikerliğini tercih ettikleri belirlendi. Mezun olunan lise türünün ve cinsiyetin, öğrencilerin mesleki görev ve sorumlulukları hakkındaki bilgi düzeylerini etkilediği saptandı (p<0,05). Buna karşılık fizyoterapi teknikeri öğrencilerinin, fizyoterapist meslek grubunun görev ve sorumlulukları ile de anlam karmaşası yaşadığı görüldü. Sonuç: Fizyoterapi teknikerlerinin mesleki yetki ve sorumluluklarını içeren bir konu, ders müfredatında yer almalıdır. İnterdisipliner sistem içinde yer alan diğer meslek gruplarının görev tanımlarının da bilinmesi, fizyoterapi teknikeri adaylarında mesleki farkındalığın artırılmasına ve mesleki etik ihlallerinin önlenmesine katkı sağlayabilir.

ABSTRACT
 Objective: It was aimed to reveal professional awareness levels of the students studying in undergraduate physiotherapy technician programs with this study. Material and Methods: Research was carried out with 275 undergraduate physiotherapy technician program students from two separate vocational schools. Data of the study were collected by online questionnaire with 25 questions that inquired about the demographic information and professional awareness of the participants. Data were evaluated at 95% confidence interval and p<0.05 significance level. Results: 76% of the students participating in the study were women and all participants' average age was 20.06±2.00. In line with the reports of participants, it was seen that they had information about duties and responsibilities of the physiotherapy technician, they made research in their choice of profession, and they knew the title they would hold. It was determined that students preferred physiotherapy technician because of their own wishes and interest in health or the opportunity to transfer to different undergraduate programs. It was determined that the type of high school graduated from and gender affect students' knowledge level about their professional duties and responsibilities (p<0.05). On the other hand, it was observed that the physiotherapy technician students were confused about duties and responsibilities of the physiotherapist's profession. Conclusion: A subject that includes the professional authorities and responsibilities of physiotherapy technicians should be included in the course curriculum. Knowing the occupation descriptions of other occupational groups in the interdisciplinary system can contribute to increasing professional awareness and preventing Professional ethics violations in physiotherapy technician candidates.
