Prentice, J. J. (2019). “Tell someone who cares” -- participatory action research of motivation and workplace engagement among caregivers in aged residential care, New Zealand. Doctoral thesis, University of Otago, Dunedin. Retrieved December 23, 2024, from http://hdl.handle.net/10523/9581
Abstract: Aims to understand the factors that encourage motivation and engagement of caregivers who are relatively poorly paid, with limited training, but who are required to provide personal care to an increasingly frail population. Undertakes an initial exploratory study, with participants from four rural aged-residential care (ARC) facilities, to identify three key themes that influence caregiver motivation. Subsequently develops these initial themes, within a 42-bed facility, to explore how to encourage caregiver motivation. Bases the four-step process on Lewin’s cycle: plan, act, observe, and reflect. Establishes an advisory group of caregivers who develop a nine-point action plan, accepted by management and implemented in the facility.

Seccombe, J., & Stewart, C. (2014). Motivation or self-directed learning: student perspectives. Kai Tiaki Nursing Research, 5(1), 21–24.
Abstract: Conducts a study of 90 undergraduate Bachelor of Nursing (BN) students in order to identify factors that motivate student nurses to undertake self-directed learning (SDL). Adapts an overseas rating scale questionnaire to survey third-year BN students to identify intrinsic or extrinsic factors that influence students' SDL behaviour. Categorises survey results in relation to content and navigation of the learning package; monitoring and management of personal learning; and relevance to topic and link to paper assessment.

Walsh, K., McAllister, M., Morgan, A., & Thornhill, J. (2004). Motivating change: Using motivational interviewing in practice development. Practice Development in Health Care, 3(2), 92–100.
Abstract: The present paper draws on experiences and insights gained by a group of psychiatric nurse practice development facilitators whilst working with consumers, carers, clinicians and managers in the context of a practice development programme in a large metropolitan psychiatric hospital. The paper describes how the practice development facilitators were able to adapt techniques of motivational interviewing, commonly used in drug and alcohol treatment services, to help motivate change in an aged care setting. The lessons embedded within this experience are that people do want change, and that sustained change requires ownership and support. Practice development facilitators can assist in this process though the use of principles and strategies of motivational interviewing, which include increasing awareness of the need for change, supporting self-efficacy and managing resistance to change.

Abstract: In this article four theories of adult learning theory are presented: self directed learning; experiential learning; constructivist theory; and critical thinking. These are discussed alongside theories about motivation to learn. Suggestions for how the theory may be applied to the clinical learning environment are offered.
