Item Nurses' perceptions of caring activities in nursing(Wiley, 2021-01) Watson, Roger; Akansel, Neriman; Vatansever, Nursel; Özdemir, Aysel; Uludağ Üniversites/Sağlık Bilimler Fakültesi/Hemşirelik Bölümü.; CAQ-5054-2022; AAI-9108-2021; AAC-9352-2021; 12797756400; 56222181700; 56015418900Aim: This study aimed to determine nurses' perceptions of caring activities in nursing. Design A descriptive study design. Methods: A Turkish translation of the 25-item version of the Caring Dimensions Inventory was completed by 260 nurses working in one university hospital. Data were analysed using Mokken scaling. Results: Technical aspects of nursing were highly endorsed items such as "observing the effects of a medication on a patient, measuring vital signs, being technically competent with a clinical procedure, consulting with the doctor" except for the item "providing privacy for a patient" which is a psychosocial item. The range of items included in the Mokken scale with "providing privacy for a patient" (mean = 4.31) as the most endorsed, and "exploring the patient's lifestyle" (mean = 2.60) being the least endorsed item. Listening to patients and involving them in their care are not considered as caring.Item Validity and reliability of the Turkish version of stressors in nursing students scale(Wiley, 2021-08-15) Watson, Roger; Akansel, Neriman; Palloş, Aylin; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi/Hemşirelik Bölümü.; 0000-0002-1451-4761; 0000-0002-2729-5676; CAQ-5054-2022; GEA-5765-2022; 12797756400; 55330427100Purpose This study aimed to access the reliability and validity of the Stressors in Nursing Students Scale in the Turkish language (SINS-T). Design and Methods Data were collected after the linguistic and content validity of the instrument. The study included 436 nursing students. Findings The exploratory factor analysis was acceptable, and four factors were determined. These factors were named confidence, education, relationships, and uncertainties. Practice Implications The SINS-T is a valid and reliable tool to determine the stress experienced by nursing students. Conducting different studies with a large sample size using this instrument will help expose nursing students' stress and its' outcomes.
