  Title Clinical teaching and learning: An action research study Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 2 Pages (up) 36-45  
  Keywords Education; Nursing; Hospitals  
  Abstract Using an educational action research model, a nursing lecturer based in a polytechnic and ten students formed a research group to address one issue that was important to them. The research group chose to plan, implement and evaluate a practical change strategy aimed at improving the teaching and learning relationship between students and staff nurses in clinical settings. A sample of five staff nurses working closely with five students in the group was invited to join the study in order to gain their perspectives on the issues. The findings were that contract learning provides a strategy which, under certain conditions, offers both students and staff nurses an opportunity to improve the effectiveness of their interactions.

  Title Risk assessment of violence to others: Time for action Type Journal Article
  Year 2002 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 18 Issue 1 Pages (up) 36-43  
  Keywords Mental health; Workplace violence; Risk management; Nursing; Nurse-patient relations; Psychiatric nursing  
  Abstract The author performs a literature search on the topics of risk assessment, dangerousness, aggression, and violence in order to determine an evidence-based approach to risk assessment of patient violence towards others. This is set in the context of possible expansion in the scope of practice of mental health nurses, and the prevalence of nurses being assaulted by patients. In the absence of reliable and valid nursing risk assessment measures, the approach suggested here focuses on the use of observation skills to detect behaviour antecedent to physical assault, and the ability to adapt evidence to specific clinical settings.

  Title A longitudinal survey of nurses' self-reported performance during an entry-to-practice programme Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 21 Issue 2 Pages (up) 37-46  
  Keywords New graduate nurses; Methodology; Professional competence; Training  
  Abstract The researchers conducted a study to compare self-reported changes in both frequency and quality of performance of nursing behaviours in a cohort of recently graduated nurses undertaking a one year entry to practice programme. Thirty-three nurses were surveyed, seven weeks after beginning the programme and again seven months later, using a modified version of Schwirian's (1978) Six-Dimension Scale of Nursing Performance (6-DSNP). Over the study period participants reported significant increases in frequency of performance for the domains of leadership, critical care, teaching/collaboration, and planning/evaluation. Significant increases in the quality of nurse behaviours in the domains of critical care, planning/evaluation and interpersonal relations/communication were also reported. The modified Schwirian 6-DSNP was found to be a useful instrument for measuring nurses' self reporting of performance during periods of transition.
