摘要

This study examined xenophobia and empathic tendency among 724 midwifery students from different regions of Turkey. Data were collected online using the Student Information Form, the Empathic Tendency Scale, and the Xenophobia Scale, and analyzed with non-parametric tests. Empathy tendencies differed in terms of the university attended, citizenship status, income level, intercultural friendships, and providing care to a foreign individual during clinical practice. Xenophobia levels, on the other hand, were significantly associated with the university attended, perceived income level, type of place of residence where they grew up, family type, and having taken a course on intercultural midwifery. No significant association was found between empathic tendency and xenophobia.
