The Effects of Logotherapy Based Psychosocial Support Program on Nursing Students on the Meaning of Life and Life Satisfaction

In the short term, it expects that students will gain awareness, especially in areas such as life satisfaction, anxiety, aimlessness, the meaning of life, deterioration in functionality, and in the long term, the individual's ultimate issues (death, loneliness, meaning and responsibility) and provide a perspective that can cope with the problems that may arise in these areas. Based on all these, it is aimed to raise awareness of the meaning of life and life satisfaction in nursing students, who constitute a young population, with the existential approach and logotherapy-based psychosocial support program.
