Students' professional identity is essential to build nursing competence. Cognitive flexibility plays a crucial role in developing professional identity, as well as clinical supervisors and academic teachers through role modeling. This study analyzed the role of internship and theoretical modeling in the link between cognitive flexibility and professional identity.

In this installment of the , we briefly discuss how our peer-reviewers might foster optimal statistical practices among our community of researchers. Reviewers are encouraged to seek out training opportunities that enhance their own statistical expertise and to consider tools that might support and enhance the quality of their reviews. We also encourage reviewers with statistical expertise to further lend their time and efforts to reviewership. .

The emotional experiences of nursing students are linked to learning outcomes. Peer learning is a key component of nursing education and simulation. However, little is known about the emotions of students in the context of peer learning. This study sought to provide an in-depth description of nursing students' emotional experiences when participating with another peer in a simulation activity.

Trauma-informed care (TIC) requires health care providers and organizations to provide care in a way that assumes everyone has a trauma history (Hopper et al.).

Students from underrepresented groups, including those attending predominantly Black institutions, encounter challenges that hinder first-time success on the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of first principles of instruction on trauma management skills for undergraduate nursing students.

Rural and remote areas offer unique opportunities for undergraduate nurses. Extended placements boost work readiness, improve assessment skills, and increase likelihood of practicing in these areas post-registration. However, hybrid delivery of curriculum content in not well understood. Undergraduate Extended Nurse Placement Program (ENPP) and on campus students, and academics were recruited from a major tertiary institution to understand impact of hybrid delivery for nursing curriculum.

Intraprofessional simulation and training in acute care nursing specialties can generate synergies that will promote safe, quality patient care.

A unique partnership between two academic medical centers, one with a college of nursing and the other with a clinical research center (CRC), provided professional development hours focusing on clinical research and the clinical research nurse's role to generalist entry master's nursing students.

Undergraduate students need to possess the skills to read a nursing textbook critically. Professor-made guided reading podcasts were added to a junior-level first medical-surgical nursing course to develop textbook reading skills and focus on essential knowledge points for success.

The integration of morbidity and mortality (M and M) conferences into advanced practice nurse (APN) nursing curricula is a novel approach aimed at enhancing education, reflective learning, and continuous improvement. M and M conferences have traditionally been a standard practice for medical specialties, yet a gap exists in their utilization within APN education.

Integrated behavioral health care (IBH), a team-based approach to care, involves behavioral health providers (BHP) to be utilized in primary care settings. Unfortunately, many BHP and primary care advanced practice nursing students do not receive IBH content in their educational curriculum. This article describes an innovative interprofessional simulation project (ISP) in a virtual IBH setting with primary care nurse practitioner and master's level counseling students.

As Abraham Maslow asserts, belonging is essential to achieving self-esteem and self-actualization. With increasing numbers of novice nurse burnout and a perceived education-practice gap, promoting a sense of belonging is important to nurses' growth and psychological well-being and should start in nursing school.

Communication between preceptors and faculty and the time to teach have been identified as common barriers for preceptors working with nurse practitioner (NP) students. Despite traditional preceptor orientation strategies in school of nursing NP primary care programs, preceptors continued to express uncertainty and lack of clarity regarding the expectations of the precepted experience.

Instructors used generative artificial intelligence (AI) as a teaching tool in a third-year baccalaureate nursing leadership course to help students understand and critique a change management proposal.
