Objective? To explore the status quo of creative self-efficacy and research performance in nursing undergraduates and to analyze the correlation between the two. Methods? Totally 190 senior nursing undergraduates who practiced in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University were selected by convenient sampling and investigated with the Creative Self-Efficacy Scale and the Research Performance Self-Rating Scale for nursing staff. Results? The 190 nursing undergraduates' creative self-efficacy score totaled (65.31±9.51), and their total research performance score was (72.85±13.97). Univariate analysis revealed that there was statistically significant difference in creative self-efficacy scores between nursing undergraduates who were student leaders or not (P<0.05); and there were statistically significant differences in research performance scores between nursing undergraduates with different English levels, computer skills and home address (P<0.05). The scores of various dimensions creative self-efficacy were positively correlated with the scores of various dimensions of research performance (P< 0.01). Conclusions? Nursing undergraduates' creative self-efficacy and research performance need to be improved. Universities and colleges should actively launch activities which are beneficial to their research literacy and creative awareness and take scientific research activities as one of the most pathways to develop nursing students' research literacy and creativeness and entrepreneurship.

Objective To investigate the current situation and correlation of cognitive dysfunction, activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods A total of 148 patients hospitalized in the Rehabilitation Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January to December 2016 were included in this study. The Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA),modified Barthel Index scale (MBI) and WHO quality of life scale (WHO-QOL) were used to investigate the status of patients with traumatic brain injury. Results There were 78 of 148 patients with cognitive dysfunction and the incidence rate was 52.98%. Cognitive dysfunction after TBI was significantly positively related to the ADL ability (r=0.968,P<0.01);the visual space and executive function,attention,abstraction,delayed recall and orientation had the prediction effect on the ADL ability. Cognitive dysfunction after TBI was significantly positively related to the quality of life (r=0.973,P<0.01);cognitive items except the name could predict the quality of life. Conclusions There is a high incidence of cognitive dysfunction in patients with traumatic brain injury,which can affect their ADL ability and quality of life. It is necessary to take effective measures to improve the rehabilitation training of the cognitive function in early stage.
