Abstract
Abstract: Nursing student attrition affects the nationwide nursing shortage. Interventions that improve student retention are needed. The Jeffreys nursing universal retention and success model provided a framework for an educational intervention that introduced students to validated study techniques and test-related anxiety management techniques. The intervention was evaluated using the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire. Results from our pilot study suggest that this type of intervention may impact the use of learning strategies and motivation and may improve overall retention and program completion.
期刊介绍:
A publication of the National League for Nursing, Nursing Education Perspectives is a peer-reviewed, bimonthly journal that provides evidence for best practices in nursing education. Through the publication of rigorously designed studies, the journal contributes to the advancement of the science of nursing education. It serves as a forum for research and innovation regarding teaching and learning, curricula, technology, and other issues important to nursing education. Today, as nurse educators strive to advance research in nursing education and break away from established patterns and chart new pathways in nursing education, Nursing Education Perspectives is a vital resource. Nursing Education Perspectives is housed in the NLN Chamberlain College of Nursing for the Advancement of the Science of Nursing Education.
