Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current national shortage of practicing registered nurses is exacerbated by an accompanying shortage of nurse educators, which limits program enrollments in Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) programs. Relatively low available enrollment in nursing programs is coupled with a national first year retention rate of 64% (National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission [NLNAC], 2008), which leaves ADN educational leaders struggling to find improved ways to increase graduation rates through better identification of qualified applicants. This exploratory, action research study examined commonly used ADN admission criteria in order to identify those indicators which best predict students' first semester success at a small private northeastern United States college. The predictive ability of common ADN admission variables (TEAS scores in the areas of math, science, and English; overall TEAS score; age; gender; and math, science, and English course grades) was determined with regard to student success outcome variables (medication/math exam grade, Nurse Fundamental course grade, Nurse Health Assessment course grade, and Assessment Technology Institute [ATI] Nursing I Fundamental Content Mastery Series scores). Using an exploratory, action research design, data from 120 freshman nursing students were examined to assess the relative contributions of each of the predictor variables on forecasting students' first semester success. The study's methodology involved a simple correlation and regression analysis of the data. Selected Admission's variables were shown to be correlated to certain outcome variables. These Admission's variables included, the TEAS overall score, the last science course grade on admission (ACGs), the TEAS score in English, and the student's last earned English course on admission (ACGe). Only the TEAS total score showed correlation with success over a broad range of success score, i.e. ATIs, FUNg, and HAg. Overall, it was concluded that the ability of the admission variables to predict a specific score on student outcome assessment was weak. As a result of this study, the college's Admission office and nursing department will use the information to modify Admission's policies, develop pre-admission workshops, and continue to implement program initiatives to further support student success in an ADN nursing program. Further studies are warranted in order to assist other colleges in determining the level of academic qualifications most desirable in selecting students capable of success in their ADN nursing program.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACT EVANS, DENA ADELE, An examination of the influence of select non-cognitive variables on the intention of minority baccalaureate nursing students to complete a baccalaureate nursing program. (Under the direction of Dr. Timothy Hatcher.) On college and university campuses nationwide, understanding the phenomenon of student retention has become an institutional imperative. The loss of any student is costly to a college or university, resulting in considerable financial loss (Siedman, 2005). For some programs of study, such as nursing, retention is paramount, not only for the institution but for the communities which are served by its graduates. Moreover, retaining minority nursing students is of particular importance because it holds the key to the resolution of a long-standing absence of minority representation in the nursing profession, the nursing shortage and the elimination of health disparities among minority healthcare recipients (Davidhizar, Dowd, & Giger, 1998; Shi & Stevens, 2005). Using Tinto’s (1993) Model of Institutional Departure, the present study explores the relationship between non-cognitive variables of pre-entry attributes (age, race, gender); pre-entry goals and commitments (commitment to complete program and commitment to the university); external communities (family, residence and work obligations) institutional experiences (academic and social) and studentsâ€TM intention to complete their program of study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nursing programs in the United States are not able to accept all qualified applicants. Because of a severe shortage of nurses, it is critical that schools of nursing accept the candidates most likely to be successful. This book reflects a study with two hundred and fifty subjects from eight different associate degree nursing programs located across the state of Oklahoma. The study explored the relationship between the individual independent variables of academic self-efficacy, prior academic success, demographic variables; and the dependent variable of success in a first semester associate degree-nursing course. Analysis of data was completed using the Pearson correlational statistic, followed by linear regression techniques. Variables that were statistically significant in predicting continuation to the second nursing course included the ACT composite score and total self-efficacy score. These variables accounted for only 8.6 of the variance in continuation status. Variables that were statistically significant in predicting course grade included the ACT composite and age. These variables accounted for only 9.1% of the variance in course grade.

Book excerpt: An increasing number of registered nurses and other health care providers are entering upper division academic nursing programs to obtain the baccalaureate nursing degree. A path analytic model was developed to examine the interrelationships of multiple roles and focal role commitments, previous education, work experience, and role conflicts perceived by reentry adult students, and the influence of professional support in the subsequent transition to the professional role. Group differences between Registered Nurses (RNs) and military corpsmen were also investigated for the variables of importance. A sample of 206 RNs and 37 U.S. Navy corpsmen (from a current population of 96) enrolled in generic baccalaureate nursing programs throughout the country responded to a self-report instrument protocol comprised of the Grendell Intrarole Conflict Inventory, the Goldberger Professional Support Scale, the Pieta Role Conceptions Scale, and a demographic information sheet. Data were analyzed by multiple regression procedures to determine validity of the model. Predictor variables of multiple roles, work role, professional support, and role conflict explained 4% of the variance in professional role transition, 4% in role conflict, and 3% in professional support. The strongest predictor for professional role conception discrepancy was role conflict. The strongest predictor for service role conception discrepancy was the work role. Multiple role occupancy was the strongest predictor of role conflict. Multiple role occupancy and work role had a salient effect on professional support. Due to the relatively small sample of military students, a comparison group, matched by age and gender, was selected from the larger group of RNs. Analysis of variance techniques were used for testing the hypotheses of group differences. Although the groups did not differ on professional role transition, differences were found in levels of education and current work hours, thus indicating that the RN group had more years of education and continued to work more hours while attending classes. Role conflict scores for the RN group were also higher. Results of the current study suggested a revised model for future testing. The similarities found among the two groups may provide the basis for identifying and refining study variables.
