S ince the labor force participation rate is below for the university students (a significant part of the median age), two main
issues could be said to result from the individual himself: assertiveness and hopelessness. This study aims to determine
the levels of assertiveness and hopelessness of the final year graduate students in nursing and translation-interpretation (T-I)
training and to evaluate each other. In our study, of all the nursing students 76.47% (N=102, n=78) volunteered to take part
and of all the T-I students 75.64% (N=78, n=59) did so. It is found that for the nursing students 88.5% of them were female.
For the T-I students 52.5% of them were female. Another finding was that 61.5% of the nursing students stated that they had
no concerns in finding a job, hence, 72.9% of the T-I students had this concern. According to the RAI, it is found that the
mean score was 13.83±16.99 for the nursing students and 25.93±20.49 for the T-I students. It seems that there is a statistical
meaningfulness between the groups (p=0.00). For the Beck’s hopelessness scale, the score is 4.58±4.34 for the nursing students
and 4.59±4.45 for the T-I students. There seems a significant similarity between the groups (p=0.99). As a result, it is clear that
the assertiveness of the both student groups is above the mean score. Both two departments’ students’ hopelessness score is
below the mean score which is similar to each other.
