Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education Research
  • Doctoral Studies
  • Higher Education

Background:

  • Nursing doctoral programs and their debated issues require comprehensive mapping.
  • A scoping review methodology was employed to synthesize existing research.
  • The review focused on empirical studies published between 2009 and 2019.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To map and summarize the research landscape of nursing doctoral programs.
  • To identify and analyze key issues within nursing doctoral education.
  • To provide insights into the structure, process, and outcomes of these programs.

Main Methods:

  • Scoping Review following PRISMA-ScR guidelines.
  • Searched CINAHL, Medline, and SCOPUS databases.
  • Utilized Arksey and O'Malley framework and Donabedian framework for analysis.

Main Results:

  • 41 articles were included, predominantly from the US and Europe.
  • Research focused on program structure (prerequisites, faculty qualifications, mission), process (content, resources, mentoring, international mobility), and outcomes (performance, competencies, satisfaction, challenges).
  • Descriptive studies dominate, with limited investigation into student and faculty perceptions.

Conclusions:

  • Nursing doctoral programs are largely investigated descriptively, necessitating research on effectiveness.
  • International cooperation and standardized frameworks for structure, process, and outcomes are lacking.
  • Development of national and global strategies is recommended to enhance nursing doctorate education quality and effectiveness.
