Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, elektromanyetik radyasyon, aydınlatma, gürültü, sıcaklık ve nemi ölçerek okulların kapalı fiziksel ortamlarının özellikleriyle öğrencilerin başarısı ve devamsızlığı ilişkiyi değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kocaeli ili Derince bölgesindeki tüm okullar (n = 42) örneklem seçilmeden dahil edilmiş ve kesitsel araştırma tekniği uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizi için korelasyon analizi (Spearman ve Pearson), Mann-Whitney U ve Kruskal Wallis testleri kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Okullarda elektromanyetik alan seviyesi 0.53±0.27 mG, gürültü seviyesi 57.43±7.77 dB (okul bahçesi) ve aydınlatma seviyesi 370.11±95.15 lüks olarak ölçülmüştür. Sınıf gürültü düzeyi standartlarına uyan okulların altıncı sınıflarının not ortalamaları ile uymayanlar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir (p = 0.039). Sınıf aydınlatma düzeyi ile not ortalamaları arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir (sırasıyla; r -0.498 p 0,011; r -0.548 p 0.021; r -0.563 p 0.004). Okulların bina standartları puanları ile öğrencilerin devamsızlık oranları arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir (r -0.371 p 0.011).
Sonuç: Okullardaki kapalı mekan fiziksel çevre özellikleri ile okul başarısı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur.

Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study is to reveal the characteristics of indoor physical environments of schools by means of measuring electromagnetic radiation, lighting, noise, temperature, and humidity and to evaluate the relationship between the physical characteristics with the success of students and absence.
Material and Methods: All schools in the Derince region of the city of Kocaeli (n=42) have been included in the survey without selection of a sample and the cross-sectional type of research technique has been employed. For the analysis of the data, correlation analysis (Spearman and Pearson), Mann-Whitney U, and Kruskal Wallis tests have been used.
Results: In schools, the electromagnetic field level was measured as 0.53±0.27 mG, the noise level was 57.43±7.77 dB (schoolyard), and the lighting level was 370.11±95.15 luxury. There has been a statistically significant difference detected between the grade point averages of the sixth grades of the schools that comply with the standards of classroom noise level and those that do not (p=0.039). A negatively significant correlation between the classroom lighting level and grade point averages has been detected (respectively; r -0.498 p 0.011; r -0.548 p 0.021; r -0.563 p 0.004). A negatively significant correlation between the building standards points of the schools and the rate of absence of the students has been detected (r -0.371 p 0.011).
Conclusion: A significant relationship between the indoor physical environment characteristics in schools and the school success has been found.

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
