Teachers’ views on curriculum development in health promotion in two Finnish polytechnics
2003
This study describes teachers' views on how to improve the health promotion element in the curricula of two health care polytechnics in Finland. The theoretical background of this study draws on curriculum development in nursing education and how to promote a human- or resource-centred approach in health promotion. The research data were collected by interviewing 10 teachers from both the schools involved in nursing or public health nursing education since August 1997. The data were analysed using content analysis. The findings showed that most of the teachers interviewed were involved in local curriculum development. This work was impeded by lack of time and real commitment, as well as the…
Investigating student nurses' constructions of health promotion in nursing education
2001
This article describes student nurses' constructions of health promotion and the change of these constructions during their nursing education in two Finnish polytechnics. The data consisted of essays written by the 19 student nurses before they began their nursing education in 1997 and of stimulated recall interviews with the same students during the second year of their education in 1998. The data were analyzed by using thematic analysis. During the first study year, 13 students' constructions of health promotion changed. Six students had initially broad constructions of health promotion and their constructions remained unchanged. Four basic changes were found in the students' construction…
Taking part in Nordic collaboration : nursing students' experiences and perceptions from a learning perspective: a qualitative study
2015
BACKGROUND: Nordic networking of different kinds has a long tradition aiming to increase collaboration and understanding between citizens in different countries. Cultural competence in relation to health care and nursing is important for clinical nurses and is a central issue in nurse education. OBJECTIVE: To gain an understanding of what nurse students experienced and learned during an intensive course in diabetes together with students and nurse educators from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and the Faroe Islands. METHODS: In 2012, an intensive course within the Nordic network, Nordkvist, was conducted in Faroe Islands with the theme "Nursing - to live a good life with diabetes"…
Actitudes hacia el alumnado con discapacidad en educación física: validación de la EAADEF-EP a la etapa de educación primaria
2020
La investigación que aborda la inclusión del alumnado con discapacidad en educación física (EF) se presenta como un reto educativo en la actualidad. El objetivo de este estudio fue validar la Escala de Actitud hacia el Alumnado con Discapacidad en Educación Física (EAADEF) de Íñiguez-Santiago et al. (2017) a la etapa de educación primaria (EAADEF-EP). Participaron 465 estudiantes (rango 9-13 años) que cursaban 4º, 5º y 6º curso de la etapa de educación primaria obligatoria (EPO). Se confirmaron unos índices de ajuste adecuados para la adaptación de la EAADEF a EPO, mostrándose la estructura factorial invariante respecto al curso, género, el contacto previo con familiares o amigos con discap…
The matching effect in persuasive communication about lockdown
2022
Scientific literature about persuasion has shown that the effectiveness of persuasive communication may depend on the match between the affective or cognitive contents of the message and the affective (Need for Affect) or cognitive (Need for Cognition) orientation of the recipient. The present work aims to contribute to studying this effect by considering the context of health-related communication during the SARS-CoV-2 infection. Specifically, we aim to demonstrate that, when the message is characterized by affective and cognitive contents having the same (congruent message) or different valence (incongruent message), the attitude towards the target (i.e., a new lockdown) will be guided by…
A Multicultural Demographic Study to Evaluate the Impact of the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic on the Job Satisfaction across the Dental Industry
2021
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the difference in working conditions as perceived by dentists during the pandemic and their professional satisfaction levels. Material and Methods: An online survey was conducted using the convenience and snowball sampling methods. Two hundred seventy-two respondents across various countries answered information related to socio-demographic data and work satisfaction levels during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Results: 40.1% of dentists reported dissatisfied with their current work, while another 13.6% of dentists fell in the extremely dissatisfied category. 22.8% of dentists were significantly dissatisfied with their current income. Furthermore, 38.4% of the dent…

Psychometric properties and measurement invariance of the Vaccination Attitudes Examination Scale (VAX) in a Spanish sample.
2022
AbstractIn these times of pandemic, the acceptance or rejection of vaccines has become increasingly clear, with a considerable rise in the anti-vaccine movement in Spain. It is important to understand the attitudes that lead a person to refuse vaccination in order to develop more effective public health campaigns. The objective of this study has been to study the psychometric properties and measurement invariance of the Vaccination Attitudes Examination (VAX) scale in a Spanish sample. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling have been used to study the psychometric properties of the VAX. Likewise, the measurement invariance by gender and educational level has been stu…
Attitudes, behaviours and perceptions of Italian General Practitioner trainees towards influenza vaccination in Western Sicily (Italy)
2012
Background: General practitioners (GPs) have to be considered as key figures of health promotion among health care workers since they are strongly asked to recommend influenza vaccination to their patients and perform on them. Despite this consideration, GPs have influenza vaccination rates that are significantly below the 75% coverage proposed by International Public Health guidelines. In order to increase future coverage of influenza vaccination within GPs, and through them within the population, the aim of this study was to assess determinants associated with influenza vaccine uptake among GP trainees. Methods: A survey was carried out on GP trainees attending the training course in Comm…
Misura dell’attività specifica di radionuclidi a lunga vita in alcuni componenti del target di un ciclotrone medicale
2019
La valutazione dell'attività elevata indotta in alcuni componenti del target di un ciclotrone usato per la produzione di radiofarmaci per studi di tomografia a emissione di positroni (PET) è importante per quanto riguarda la protezione dalle radiazioni degli operatori impegnati nella manutenzione, sostituzione e gestione di un target, o suoi componenti. Le attività specifiche sono significativamente elevate da comportare, per scopi radioprotezionistici, una loro classificazione e conservazione in cassaforti schermate in attesa di un loro smaltimento. Tuttavia, dopo alcuni anni, può essere necessario rimuovere le parti più datate per la conservazione di quelle nuove più attive. La fattibilit…
