Psychological adjustment and growth of graduate nursing students under the dual stress of research and practicum: a qualitative study
To explore the psychological experiences of graduate nursing students under the dual pressures of clinical nursing practice and academic research, highlighting the significance of these experiences.
Key Findings:
Four themes were identified: negative experiences of dual stress, coping mechanisms for negative experiences, positive effects of dual stress, and the inner need for graduate nursing education.
Nursing students improve their general competence through internships and research studies.
Students experience adverse psychological effects due to dual stress but employ various methods to cope, including seeking support and developing resilience.
Interpretation:
Schools and hospitals should pay more attention to the needs of nursing students under dual stress, monitor their emotional state, and provide targeted support in areas such as mental health resources and academic guidance to enhance their coping skills.
Limitations:
The study's sample size was limited to 15 participants, which may affect the generalizability of the findings.
Participants were selected from only 11 universities, which may not represent all graduate nursing students in China.
Conclusion:
The findings highlight the importance of understanding the psychological experiences of nursing students under dual stress to improve their mental health and educational support.
In a target-trial emulation of more than 600,000 veterans, GLP-1 RA initiators saw fewer new substance use disorders—and patients with existing SUDs had fewer overdoses, hospitalizations, and deaths.
Longitudinal cohort data linked bullying and persistently unsupportive state gender-identity policies with worsening psychotic-like experiences among gender-diverse youths.
