- Abstract
Objective: Studies on academic career awareness may support the development of physiotherapists' academic and professional roles and status by providing specialization in a certain field. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the factors affecting the academic career awareness of senior physiotherapy and rehabilitation (PTR) students who are in the career planning stage. Method: The study was conducted with 227 PTR senior students studying in six different universities in Ankara, three of which are state (Hacettepe, Gazi, and Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University) and three of which are private (Lokman Hekim, Başkent, and Atılım University), in the 2021-2022 academic year. "Personal Information Form" and "Academic Career Awareness Scale (ACAS)" were used as data collection tools. The factors affecting the total score of ACAS were analyzed by multiple linear regression analysis. Results: The study was completed with 227 (Female: 186, 82%) FTR senior students with a mean age of 22.6±1.3 years, 134 (59%) of whom were studying at a state university and 93 (41%) at a private university. It was determined that the factors affecting the total score of ACAS were being informed about the academic career (B=12.22, p<0.001), postgraduate education status in the family/close environment (role model) (B=5.97, p=0.006), department satisfaction (B=1.54, p=0.001), and taking the Academic Personnel and Postgraduate Education Entrance Exam (ALES) (B=5.01, p=0.022). It was observed that these four variables explained 24% of the cumulative variance in the dependent variable (total score of ACAS) (R2=0.243). Conclusion: It was found that being informed about academic career, postgraduate education status in the family/close environment (role model), department satisfaction, and taking ALES were the factors affecting academic career awareness. For physiotherapy candidates to develop academic career awareness, it may be beneficial to establish career offices in higher education institutions, incorporate careerrelated elective courses in the curriculum, or schedule seminars regularly. Furthermore, academic career awareness may also be increased by helping students with an academic career plan in choosing a role model, enabling them to communicate with the role model, and establishing procedures to improve students' department satisfaction.
