Coping Strategies: Problem Focused01:27

Coping Strategies: Problem Focused

570
Coping strategies are methods people use to manage, tolerate, or reduce the effects of stressors. These strategies involve both behavioral and psychological actions to handle stressful situations. One common approach is problem-focused coping, which aims to change or eliminate the source of stress rather than merely addressing its consequences. This method involves taking direct action to resolve the issue causing stress.
For example, consider a student who struggles to understand their...

Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding

459
Confounding is a critical issue in epidemiological studies, often leading to misleading conclusions about associations between exposures and outcomes. It occurs when the relationship between the exposure and the outcome is mixed with the effects of other factors that influence the outcome. Given that, addressing confounding is of high importance for drawing accurate inferences in research.
Confounding can be addressed at both the design phase of a study and through analytical methods after data...

Metacognition01:26

Metacognition

908
Metacognition is a conscious process where individuals are aware of their cognitive and executive processes, such as planning before solving a problem or self-monitoring during reading. For instance, a writer may need help with composing a piece. The situation involves a writer who is working on a piece of writing, but while doing so, they realize that something is missing. They notice that their characters lack depth or details. This realization occurs because the writer is reflecting on their...

Strategies of Self-Presentation I: Strategic Self-Presentation

237
Strategic self-presentation refers to individuals' intentional efforts to influence how others perceive them. This process is employed in various social and professional settings, such as job interviews, dating, politics, and legal contexts, where individuals seek to shape impressions to gain social or material advantages. While people generally present themselves in ways that align with their authentic characteristics, external factors, such as cognitive load, can hinder their ability to...

Growth versus Fixed Mindset

346
Carol Dweck introduced the term mindset to describe individuals' beliefs about their intellectual and personal capabilities. These beliefs significantly influence psychological processes such as motivation, goal-setting, and perseverance, ultimately shaping academic and life outcomes. Individuals generally possess one of two mindsets- a fixed or a growth mindset—each promoting different responses to success, failure, and challenge.Fixed vs. Growth MindsetA fixed mindset assumes that one's...

Problem-Solving01:29

Problem-Solving

575
Effective problem-solving consists of two steps: 1. identifying the problem and 2. selecting the appropriate problem-solving strategy (i.e., a plan of action used to find a solution). Humans use four problem-solving strategies:

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Healthcare Workforce Development
  • Clinical Practice Integration

Background:

  • The nursing academic-practice gap is a persistent issue, with academe criticized for inadequate graduate preparation and practice settings for unrealistic expectations.
  • This gap negatively impacts new graduates, patient care quality, and employer satisfaction.
  • Divergent viewpoints between academic and practice leaders exacerbate the problem.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore contemporary strategies for bridging the academic-practice gap in nursing.
  • To outline differences in expected graduate outcomes between educational institutions and clinical settings.
  • To discuss the consequences of this gap for stakeholders.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and analysis of current academic-practice partnership initiatives.
  • Identification and discussion of five key strategies to address the gap.
  • Examination of the roles of education, practice, and collaborative efforts.

Main Results:

  • Five strategies are proposed: enhanced simulation in nursing education, learner-centered innovations, extended Transition to Practice Programs, dedicated education units, and academic service partnerships.
  • Responsibility for these strategies is distributed between education (two), practice (one), and both (two).
  • Current literature indicates ongoing divergence in perspectives between academic and practice leaders.

Conclusions:

  • Closing the academic-practice gap necessitates a coordinated and committed response from both nursing education and clinical practice settings.
  • Implementing proposed strategies can improve new graduate readiness and patient care outcomes.
  • Continued dialogue and collaboration are crucial for aligning educational preparation with practice demands.
