Developing a Cultural Immersion Service-Learning Experience for Undergraduate Nursing Students
The Journal of Nursing Education
|February 6, 2019
Summary
Cultural immersion service-learning (CISL) improved cultural consciousness in nursing students. This experience enhanced self-reflection and understanding of societal privilege, crucial for effective healthcare.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Cultural Competency in Healthcare
- Health Disparities
Background:
- Cultural consciousness is vital for effective healthcare delivery.
- Self-reflection, dialogue, and cross-cultural experiences enhance cultural consciousness.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the impact of a cultural immersion service-learning (CISL) experience on nursing students' cultural consciousness.
- To evaluate changes in White Racial Identity Attitude Scale (WRIAS) scores following the CISL experience.
Main Methods:
- Two cohorts of senior nursing students participated in a 1-week CISL in a rural American Indian community.
- Student reflections and WRIAS data were collected and analyzed.
Main Results:
- The CISL experience improved culturally conscious care in two-thirds of nursing students.
- Statistically significant differences in WRIAS scores were observed (p < .0001) with a large effect size (1.9).
Conclusions:
- Integrating CISL experiences into undergraduate nursing curricula can foster cultural consciousness and recognition of societal privilege.
- Developing partnerships with indigenous nations is key to implementing successful CISL programs.

313
Social-emotional experiences and cultural influences play significant roles in shaping gender development. During middle childhood, from ages 6 to 11, peer groups become dominant in reinforcing gender norms. Children in this age group often align with same-gender peer groups, which actively encourage behaviors that conform to traditional gender roles. For instance, boys may be discouraged from engaging in activities perceived as feminine, reinforcing culturally dictated norms about masculinity...

01:31Student t Distribution
14.1K
The population standard deviation is rarely known in many day-to-day examples of statistics. When the sample sizes are large, it is easy to estimate the population standard deviation using a confidence interval, which provides results close enough to the original value. However, statisticians ran into problems when the sample size was small. A small sample size caused inaccuracies in the confidence interval.

Student's t-test in Microsoft Excel is a statistical method used to compare the means of two groups to determine if they are significantly different from each other. It's commonly used to evaluate hypotheses, such as testing whether a treatment has an effect compared to a control group. Excel provides built-in functions to perform t-tests, making it accessible for users needing to conduct basic statistical analysis.

The t-test is a statistical method used to compare the sample mean with a population mean or compare two means from two data sets. The test statistic is calculated from the standard deviation, mean, and number of measurements in the data set at a selected confidence interval and then compared to a table of critical values at this confidence level. If the test statistic is smaller than the critical value, the null hypothesis is accepted. In this case, we state that the difference between the...
