摘要:

When personality profiles and leadership potential of psychiatric and medical-surgical nursing graduate students were compared, using the California Psychological inventory (CPI) and the Managerial Key for the CPI, medical-surgical majors scored significantly higher on the CPI scale (p > .05). Overall, both groups scored higher than the norm and showed a more optimal personality development than has been observed in earlier studies of this kind. In the Managerial Key for the CPI, the test of leadership potential on both groups received a high rating, comparable to that of the top-management group in the original research.

摘要:

The use of the ethnoscientific method in nursing research is demonstrated in an initial study and a replication of that study, utilizing male and female informants. The domain of “mental health” was explored, analyzed, and contrasted within the subculture of the central city resident and the subculture of the psychiatric-mental health professional. To facilitate an understanding of ethnoscience, the method is briefly outlined; then, to illustrate the methodology, data from one informant are presented in depth. A summary of the major similarities and contrasts that emerged from the data of both studies is presented. Implications for nursing of the research and ethnoscience are discussed.

摘要:

Patient care scores of staff nurses in seven Veterans Administration hospitals who used a performance counseling protocol that required written goal setting, coupled with head nurse modeling and support to achieve goals (experimental), were compared with scores of nurses who continued with usual practice (control). Staff nurses chose their own goals. One goal was to improve patient care and the other was to improve staff nurse professional competence. After six months, experimental group scores were higher on five patient care scales, one significantly. After 12 months, scores shifted in favor of the control group, one significantly. Experimental group scores were higher on patient interview questions after six months and made additional gains after 12 months. Experimental nurses generally were more satisfied with their nursing careers and described working relationships more positively. Some progress the experimental nurses made after six months was lost after 12 months. Nurses who received high patient care scores from outside observers described the hospital working environment in more positive terms. Relationships of three instruments that measure quality of patient care are presented.
