Amaç: Bireysel yenilikçilik, düşünme ve problem çözme, yaratıcılıkla yeni fikirler üretme ve sonunda bunların uygulamaya geçirilmesiyle gelişmektedir. Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin meslek hayatında karşılaştıkları problemleri çözebilmede yaratıcı çözümler bulmak için kalıpların dışında düşünmeleri ve değişime, yenilikçiliğe istekli olmaları gerekir. Bu çalışmada, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin bireysel yenilikçilik düzeyleri ile problem çözme becerilerini belirlemek ve aralarındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu araştırma tanımlayıcı tasarımda, Nisan-Haziran 2019 tarihleri arasında 295 hemşirelik öğrencisi ile yapılmıştır. Veriler Sosyodemografik Özellikler Formu, Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin Bireysel Yenilikçilik Ölçeği ve Problem Çözme Envanteri ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmaya başlamadan önce kurum izni, etik kurul onayı ve katılımcılardan yazılı onam alınmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, Spearman's Rho korelasyon katsayısı, Mann-Whitney U, KruskalWallis testi ve Bonferroni düzeltmesi kullanılmıştır. İstatistiksel anlamlılık olarak p<0,05 alınmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan öğrencilerin Bireysel Yenilikçilik Ölçeği puan ortalaması 64,29±8,35 iken Problem Çözme Envanteri puan ortalaması 93,11±17,95'tir. Bireysel Yenilikçilik Ölçeği puanlarına göre %37,6'sının kuşkucular grubunda olduğu görülmektedir. Problem Çözme Envanteri puanı ile Bireysel Yenilikçilik Ölçeği puanı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı negatif yönlü orta düzeyde bir ilişki bulunmaktadır (r=-0,56). Öğrencilerin Bireysel Yenilikçilik Ölçeği puanı cinsiyet ve sınıf; Problem Çözme Envanteri puanı ise sınıf değişkenine göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık göstermektedir (p<0,05). Sonuç: Çalışma sonucunda, öğrencilerin orta düzeyde yenilikçi ve problem çözme becerisine sahip olduğu, yeniliklere karşı ise çoğunluğunun kuşkucu özellikte olduğu saptanmıştır. Öğrencilerin yenilikçilik düzeyleri arttıkça problem çözme becerileri olumlu yönde artmaktadır. Bu sonuçlar doğrultusunda hemşirelik öğrencilerinde yenilikçiliğin ve problem çözme becerilerinin geliştirilmesine yönelik hemşirelik eğitimi sürecinde etkin öğrenme ortamı oluşturulmasının gerekli olduğu değerlendirilmektedir.

Objective: Individual innovation develops through thinking and problem solving, generating new ideas with creativity and finally putting them into practice. Nursing students need to think outside the box and be willing to change and innovate in order to find creative solutions to solve the problems they encounter in their professional life. The purpose of this study is to determine the individual innovativeness levels and problem-solving skills of nursing students and the relation ship between them. Material and Methods: The research was conducted a descriptive design with 295 nursing students between AprilJune 2019. Data were collected socio-demographic form, Nursing Students's Individual Inovationveness Scale and Problem Solving Inventory. Institutional permission, ethics committee approval, and written consent from the participants were obtained before starting the study. Descriptive statistics, Spearman's Rho correlation coefficient, MannWhitney U, Kruskal-Wallis test and Bonferroni correction were used to evaluate the data. Statistical significance was taken p<0.05. Results: The average score on the Individual Innovation Scale for students participating in the study is 64.29±8.35, while the average score on the Problem Solving Inventory is 93.11±17.95. According to the Individual Innovation Scale scores, it is observed that 37.6% are in the skeptics group. There is a statistically significant, negatively moderate relationship between the score on the Problem Solving Inventory and the score on the Individual Innovation Scale (r= -0.56). The Individual Innovation Scale score of students shows a statistically significant difference based on gender and class; the Problem Solving Inventory score shows a statistically significant difference based on the class variable (p<0.05) Conclusion: As a result of the study, it was determined that the students had moderate level of innovative and problem-solving skills, and most of them were skeptical towards innovations. As students' innovativeness levels increase, their problem-solving skills increase positively. In line with these results, it is considered that it is necessary to create an effective learning environment in the nursing education process for the development of innovation and problem-solving skills in nursing students.
