Linguistic Modification When Developing Case Studies: An Integrative Review
Background:
Students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds experience language barriers that influence their progression through nursing programs. Linguistic modification is a strategy that eliminates unnecessary wording and cultural bias to improve learning outcomes for students from diverse backgrounds. This integrative review adds to the knowledge of best practices in linguistic modification that can be applied to designing case studies for nursing students with diverse backgrounds.
Method:
A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted in scholarly scientific databases from 2002 to the present.
Results:
Twenty-three articles discussed linguistic modification or summarized previous literature. Only four research studies were found pertaining to linguistic modification for culturally and linguistically diverse nursing students. Faculty and student practices that ameliorated language barriers were identified.
Conclusion:
The use of linguistic modification throughout a nursing curriculum creates an inclusive learning environment. Further research is needed on linguistic modification in nursing education. [.
