Writing is increasingly recognized as a reflective tool in nursing education.
However, the specific writing processes of nursing students remain under-researched.
Existing research on college student writing processes has not specifically focused on nursing students.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the writing processes employed by nursing students.
To understand how nursing students approach academic writing assignments.
