Introduction:
Nursing education plays a key role in addressing xenophobia. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of forum theater on nursing students' attitudes toward immigrants.
Method:
The study was a quasi-experimental research conducted with undergraduate nursing students. Forum theater was used as an educational technique in the study. The sample of the study consisted of n = 24 nursing students. Personal information form and Health Workers' Attitudes Toward Immigrants Scale were used as data-collection tools. Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test was used for statistical analysis.
Results:
The findings of the study show that the forum theater practice significantly changed nursing students' attitudes toward racism and discrimination. As a result of the study, nursing students' positive attitudes increased and negative attitudes decreased (p < .05).
Discussion:
Forum theater may be an effective educational tool for nursing students to decrease negative attitudes and increase positive attitudes toward racism and discrimination.
