The Journal of Nursing Education
|February 9, 2026
Summary
Clinical faculty face promotion barriers like vague criteria and neglect, leading to burnout and disengagement. Addressing these issues is crucial for retaining vital nursing educators and supporting the nursing workforce.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Academic Careers
- Faculty Development
Background:
- Clinical faculty on nontenure tracks are essential for nursing education.
- They encounter significant emotional and structural barriers to promotion.
- Vague criteria, inequitable recognition, and institutional neglect contribute to burnout, imposter syndrome, and disengagement.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the barriers faced by clinical faculty in nontenure academic tracks regarding promotion.
- To analyze how promotion ambiguity impacts faculty well-being and retention.
- To offer recommendations for improving promotion processes.
Main Methods:
- Literature review
- Case studies
- Analysis of personal accounts
Main Results:
- Promotion ambiguity negatively affects faculty well-being and retention.
- Current promotion processes can foster burnout, imposter syndrome, and disengagement.
Conclusions:
- Academic institutions must enhance clarity, mentorship, and psychological safety in promotion processes.
- Equitable support and recognition for clinical educators are urgently needed.
- Acknowledging the indispensable role of clinical faculty is vital for shaping the nursing workforce.

18.9K
The eukaryotic promoter region is a segment of DNA located upstream of a gene. It contains an RNA polymerase binding site, a transcription start site, and several cis-regulatory sequences. The proximal promoter region is located in the vicinity of the gene and has cis-regulatory sequences and the core promoter. The core promoter is the binding site for RNA polymerase and is usually located between -35 and +35 nucleotides from the transcription start site. The distal promoter regions are...

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.

Emotional labeling is a cognitive process that involves identifying and naming one's emotions, such as anger, fear, happiness, or sadness. It allows individuals to recognize and express their internal emotional states, a critical aspect of emotional regulation and communication. Labeling emotions requires more than mere recognition; it also involves drawing upon memory and contextual cues to understand the current situation and apply a corresponding emotional label.

Motivation is a multifaceted process that drives behavior toward fulfilling various physiological or psychological needs. This process involves initiating, guiding, and maintaining specific actions influenced by internal and external factors. For example, when someone feels hungry while watching television, hunger is a motivator, prompting the individual to get up, walk to the kitchen, and find something to eat. In this instance, hunger initiates and sustains the behavior necessary to meet the...
