Confirmation Biases

8.5K

Reporter genes are a type of protein-coding gene that are often tagged to a gene of interest.

    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Professions
    • Nursing Studies
    • Public Perception of Healthcare

    Background:

    • Media portrayals can influence public perception of healthcare professions.
    • Negative or positive media narratives may impact recruitment and retention in nursing.
    • Understanding individual experiences is crucial to contextualize broader media effects.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the personal impact of media coverage on an individual's decision to pursue nursing.
    • To gauge the sentiment of a nearly qualified nurse regarding their chosen profession and the National Health Service (NHS).
    • To provide a qualitative counterpoint to potentially negative media narratives surrounding nursing.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative data collection through a readers' panel submission.
