Abstract:
Objective? To explore the effects of Roy's cognitive adaptation process theory on pediatric nursing courses. Methods? Totally 119 three-year specialized nursing students who were admitted in 2016 in Nanyang Medical College were selected as the treatment group by convenient sampling, while another 114 specialized nursing students admitted in 2015 were selected as the control group. Nursing students in the control group were taught using the conventional method, whereas nursing students in the treatment group were involved into four-step teaching activities according to Roy's cognitive adaptation process. The Learning Attitude Questionnaire for College Nursing Students and the Critical Thinking Rating Scale were used to evaluate the teaching effects at the end of these courses. Results? At the end of these courses, the treatment group scored higher than the control group on the whole and in different dimensions of the Learning Attitude Questionnaire (P<0.05). The treatment group also scored higher than the control group on the whole and in different dimensions of the Critical Thinking Rating Scale (P< 0.05). Conclusions? Multiple teaching methods based on Roy's cognitive adaptation process, when used in pediatric nursing courses, can enhance nursing students' learning attitude and critical thinking, which is worth promoting in other nursing courses.
