Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of cultural awareness training on the ethnocentrism level of nursing students. This study was a quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group pretest and posttest design. The research was completed with 64 students. The case group participated in a 6-hour cultural awareness training. The data were analyzed using chi-square test, paired sample t-test, Mann–Whitney U test and Wilcoxon test by means of the SPSS 22.0 program. The ethnocentrism mean scores of the students in the case group who participated in the intercultural awareness training were found to be lower than those of the control group. Decreasing of ethnocentrism among nursing students will contribute to improving the way in which migrant people are cared for.
本研究旨在确定文化意识培训对护理专业学生民族中心主义水平的影响。本研究采用准实验性非等效对照组前测和后测设计。共有 64 名学生参与了研究。案例组参加了 6 小时的文化意识培训。研究数据采用 SPSS 22.0 程序,通过卡方检验(chi-square test)、配对样本 t 检验(paired sample t test)、曼-惠特尼 U 检验(Mann-Whitney U test)和威尔科克森检验(Wilcoxon test)进行分析。结果发现,参加跨文化意识培训的个案组学生的民族中心主义平均得分低于对照组。降低护理专业学生的种族中心主义将有助于改善对流动人口的护理方式。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Asian and African Studies (JAAS) was founded in 1965 to further research and study on Asia and Africa. JAAS is a peer reviewed journal of area studies recognised for consistent scholarly contributions to cutting-edge issues and debates. The journal welcomes articles, research notes, and book reviews that focus on the dynamics of global change and development of Asian and African nations, societies, cultures, and the global community. Published articles cover: -development and change -technology and communication -globalization -public administration -politics -economy -education -health, wealth, and welfare -poverty and growth -humanities -sociology -political science -linguistics -economics JAAS adheres to a double-blind reviewing policy in which the identity of both the reviewer and author are always concealed from both parties. Decisions on manuscripts will be taken as rapidly as possible. However, while it is hoped that a decision can be made in 6-8 weeks, the refereeing process makes it impossible to predict the length of time that will be required to process any given manuscript.
