Abstract

Background

In general, nursing students' self-concept of nursing is associated with their professional competence. Arts-based pedagogical approaches offer a creative way of supporting nursing education that improves clinical practice and creates meaningful learning.

Purpose

The aim of the study is to understand the professional self-concept of nursing students through their self-artwork.

Method

A qualitative descriptive design from an arts-based critical perspective was applied to nursing students from an accelerated program for non-nursing BA graduates. The thematic analysis utilized the constant comparative analysis method.

Results

The study included 34 artworks created by 184 students. Three themes and 11 codes were identified. The themes are: “The question is why?”; “My story,”; and “Nursing is a value.” The themes and codes reflect a naïve view of nursing self-concept, societal critique regarding the profession's poor image, and recognition of nursing as a feminist and transition tool, particularly among Arab women. Students expressed concerns about balancing professional commitments and their own needs.

Conclusion

Use of artwork may help students express their professional self-concept, thoughts, feelings, and criticism. Nursing educators and leaders can use these insights to develop an education process adapted to the needs of students, professionals, and society.

护理专业学生的自我概念:基于艺术的定性分析
一般来说,护理专业学生的自我护理观念与其专业能力相关。以艺术为基础的教学方法为护理教育提供了一种创造性的支持方式,既能改善临床实践,又能创造有意义的学习。本研究旨在通过护生的自我艺术作品了解其专业自我概念。研究采用了基于艺术批判视角的定性描述设计,研究对象为来自非护理专业本科毕业生速成项目的护理专业学生。主题分析采用了恒定比较分析法。研究包括 184 名学生创作的 34 件艺术作品。确定了三个主题和 11 个代码。这些主题是"问题是为什么?"、"我的故事 "和 "护理是一种价值"。这些主题和代码反映了对护理自我概念的天真看法、社会对护理职业形象不佳的批评,以及对护理作为女权主义和过渡工具的认可,特别是在阿拉伯妇女中。学生们对如何平衡职业承诺和自身需求表示担忧。使用艺术作品可以帮助学生表达他们的专业自我概念、思想、情感和批评。护理教育者和领导者可以利用这些见解来开发一个适应学生、专业人员和社会需求的教育过程。
