Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Mental Health Care
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Stigma from healthcare professionals negatively impacts individuals with mental illness.
  • Self-determination is a key psychological construct influencing behavior.
  • Understanding factors influencing stigmatizing behaviors in nurses is critical.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the influence of motivational factors on the stigmatization behaviors of preregistration nurses.
  • To investigate the relationship between self-determination and stigmatizing behaviors in nursing.
  • To explore the role of psychological needs in fostering self-determination among nurses.

Main Methods:

  • Cross-sectional study design.
  • Data collected via three surveys measuring motivational responses and stigmatizing behaviors.
  • Path analysis used to examine relationships between variables.

Main Results:

  • Psychological needs positively influenced preregistration nurses' self-determination towards their work.
  • Increased self-determination was significantly associated with reduced stigmatizing behaviors.
  • Empirical evidence supports the link between professional self-determination and lower stigmatization.

Conclusions:

  • Professional self-determination is important in nursing, potentially improving care quality.
  • Nurses with higher self-determination exhibit fewer stigmatizing behaviors.
  • Self-determination theory offers a valuable framework for nurse education research.
