Book excerpt: `I read this book in a single sitting. It is written in an enthusiastic, helpful and clear style that held my attention, and made me want to read what came next. I shall read it again in a single sitting - probably more than once. For it offers common-sense advice about planning and running focus groups which I will want to revisit′ - British Journal of Education Technology The Third Edition of the `standard′ for learning how to conduct a focus group contains: a new chapter comparing and contrasting market research, academic, nonprofit and participatory approaches to focus group research; expanded descriptions on how to plan focus group studies and do the analysis, including step-by-step procedures; examples of questions that ask participants to do more than just discuss, and suggestions on how to answer questions about your focus group research.

Book A MIXED METHODS STUDY ON NURSING STUDENT STRESS  ANXIETY AND RESILIENCE DURING AN UNEXPECTED DEATH SIMULATION

Download or read book A MIXED METHODS STUDY ON NURSING STUDENT STRESS ANXIETY AND RESILIENCE DURING AN UNEXPECTED DEATH SIMULATION written by Kent Dwayne Dickerson and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About one third of the more than 700,000 deaths that occur in hospitals each year are unanticipated. Without appropriate training and experience, a patient's impending death can be overwhelming, and an unexpected death can be even more confusing and traumatic for the novice nurse. Nurse educators have incorporated simulation activities to increase pre-licensure nursing students' competencies in end-of-life and palliative care. However, these types of simulations do not help prepare students to care for patients that die unexpectedly. Due to the perceived negative effects that stress and anxiety could have on pre-licensure students, simulation professionals remain reluctant to expose students to unexpected death simulations. Prior research indicated that students experience large amounts of stress and anxiety in critical care simulations, but explanations are lacking with regards to the variance in students' performance in meeting simulation outcomes; some students perform well, while others do not. Furthermore, the minimal research found related specifically to unexpected death simulations did not explore the relationships between stress, anxiety, learning outcomes and potential moderating factors such as resilience, and was found to lack methodological and statistical rigor. Therefore, it is prudent to explore the effects of stress, anxiety, and resilience, and students' perceptions of an unexpected death simulation. A descriptive, correlational, mixed methods design using a convergent, parallel QUAN+QUAL technique was used as the research method for this study. A pilot study informed and helped finalized methods and procedures. In addition to the research protocol, safety protocols related to COVID-19 were finalized and Institutional Review Board permission was obtained. A convenience sample of students was recruited from a small eastern North Carolina community college where the fourth semester of an Associated Degree Nursing program includes a stroke simulation which leads to unexpected death. Study data were collected by research assistants and the principal investigator, who then prepared the data for analysis. Analytical methods included descriptive statistics, statistical procedures to explore relationships among variables and to compare groups, and one-on-one interviews; these were then placed in a meta-matrix for a combined analysis of QUANT+QUAL data. Study results from the pilot study are discussed in chapter four, while the results of the dissertation study are discussed in chapter five.

Book Nursing Faculty Perceptions of Anxiety in Nursing Students

Download or read book Nursing Faculty Perceptions of Anxiety in Nursing Students written by Cristina Andraca Tansey and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nursing profession relies on the delivery of safe, competent care to produce positive patient outcomes. In preparation to enter the nursing workforce, students must develop the knowledge, skills, and clinical judgment to practice in a complex healthcare environment. Research has demonstrated, however, that nursing students experience an increased level of anxiety which can interfere with learning and performance. This qualitative phenomenological study explored nursing faculty perceptions of anxiety among prelicensure baccalaureate nursing students. The research question guiding this study was: What are nursing faculty perceptions of anxiety among nursing students? The Comfort-Stretch-Panic model was used as a framework to illustrate the degree to which anxiety can impact students' learning. Thirteen nursing faculty from nursing programs across Pennsylvania were interviewed. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi's method and led to four themes: (1) recognizing expressions of anxiety, (2) understanding influencing factors, (3) finding a balance, and (4) acknowledging the faculty role. The theme of understanding influencing factors revealed two subthemes: (a) expectations and (b) realizing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Data analysis highlighted faculty awareness of students' experiences of anxiety and factors that impact these feelings. The Comfort-Stretch-Panic model was described and its application to nursing education was identified as a framework to understand student anxiety. Recommendations for nursing education and practice included ongoing faculty development and the use of simulation to help faculty identify how best to support students. Futrher research is needed to achieve student learning outcomes.

Book Faculty Perceptions of Human Patient Simulation and Student Learning for Clinical Practice

Download or read book Faculty Perceptions of Human Patient Simulation and Student Learning for Clinical Practice written by Sherry Silvia and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human patient simulation has become an integral facet in preparing student nurses for practice across the United States. However, it was not known how well human patient simulation augments the critical thinking and skill acquisition that is required for safe, component nursing practice as perceived by the nursing instructors who are required to utilize this form of technology in the classroom. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore how the human simulation interactive environment influenced the execution of safe, competent nursing practice as a means of enhancing critical thinking and skill acquisition for undergraduate nursing students as perceived by undergraduate nursing educators in the state of Arizona. The study population was 14 baccalaureate nursing faculty who had experience with the use of simulation in the classroom. Data collection consisted of interviews and optional qualitative questionnaires from these nursing faculty plus field notes for primary data collection. Secondary data of existing information on the use of simulation in baccalaureate nursing programs in the state of Arizona was also used. Student involvement theory was used for the theoretical framework that guided this study. Four themes emerged pertaining to safe environment, enhancement of student learning for safe clinical practice, assisting with critical thinking skills, and helps with skill acquisition through repetition. The results provide practitioners and faculty with a better understanding of how student nurse learning is influenced by human patient simulation and its use in safe, clinical practice.
