“…The results of the study show that the professionalism of nursing students is at a medium level and needs to be improved, which may be related to the fact that nurses in our country are not valued and have low social status (Qi et al, 2021 , Wang, 2022 ). The data showed that nursing students who are willing to change majors have a lower level of professionalism, which is consistent with previous research results.…”

Aims To investigate the association between professionalism and social media competence among Chinese mainland nursing undergraduates. Design This study employed a cross‐sectional descriptive correlation design. Participants From June to July 2021, 797 nursing students from four nursing colleges in Jiangsu Province, China, were chosen using stratified cluster sampling. Methods The questionnaire included the Chinese version of the Nursing Professionalism Scale and the Social Media Competency Scale. The association between professionalism and social media competency was examined using Pearson's correlation analysis. Results The professionalism of nursing undergraduates (average scores:70.44 ± 8.82) was at a medium level. Social media self‐efficacy, performance expectancy, facilitating conditions and social influence (3.76 ± 0.75, 3.87 ± 0.60, 3.53 ± 0.69, 3.41 ± 0.76) were at a medium–high level, while social media experience and effort expectancy (3.03 ± 0.72, 2.60 ± 0.59) were at medium and low levels. Among nursing undergraduates, professionalism was related to social media competence, among which, professionalism was positively correlated with social media self‐efficacy (r = 0.40, p < 0.01), social media experience (r = 0.50, p < 0.01), performance expectancy (r = 0.34, p < 0.01), facilitating conditions (r = 0.41, p < 0.01), but negatively correlated with effort expectancy (r = −0.10, p < 0.01). Conclusion The professionalism of nursing undergraduates is related to social media. The scores of social media self‐efficacy, social media experience, performance expectancy and facilitating conditions of nursing students with high professionalism were higher than those of nursing students with low professionalism. Impact This study suggests that developing a course on health communication on social media can help nursing students improve their professionalism. Patient or Public Contribution Participants completed a survey via the online survey platform Wenjuangxing.

“…More interpersonal practice and simulation activities may encourage freshmen to communicate with others. Finally, nursing teachers may use psychological intervention strategies to promote the formation of PI and ISS among FNSs, such as cognition intervention, group psychological intervention, and empathy intervention ( Wang et al, 2022 ).…”

“…In China, nurses have always been treated as having low levels of education, a high-pressure working environment, and low social status ( Zhang et al, 2021 ). As a result, the nursing profession is not the first choice of many Chinese freshman nursing students (FNSs), but it is often chosen due to course allocation in colleges being based on student preferences (generally, nursing courses are the least preferred by students) or based on others’ recommendation ( Wang et al, 2022 ). Many students switch to other medical majors in their sophomore year or relinquish their nursing professional education in the senior year ( Wang et al, 2022 ).…”

BackgroundMany studies have focused on undergraduate nursing students’ professional identity (PI), but freshman nursing students (FNSs) have been ignored, and the relationship between interpersonal self-support (ISS) and PI is unknown. This study was designed to determine the patterns of ISS and its association with PI among Chinese FNSs.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted among 358 FNSs recruited from two nursing colleges in southeast China. Students completed the Sociodemographic Characteristics Questionnaire, the Interpersonal Self-Support Scale for Adolescent Students, and the Professional Identity Questionnaire for Nurse Students. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was used to determine the patterns of ISS among freshmen. The Bolck–Croon–Hagenaars method was used to examine the influencing role of ISS in PI.ResultsLPA indicated that ISS could be classified into three subgroups: the ISS-Individualist group (7.54% of the total sample), ISS-Dependent group (63.13% of the total sample), and ISS-Extrovert group (29.33% of the total sample). Overall, these three profiles differed significantly in the five dimensions of ISS and PI (p < 0.05). The results of pairwise comparisons examined the positive role of the ISS-Extrovert group on the promotion of PI among FNSs.ConclusionThese findings emphasize the need for the promotion of PI and ISS among Chinese FNSs. Freshman students need more confidence and general communication knowledge to maintain harmonious social relationships with others. Parent-teacher association could be applied to nursing education to guide FNSs’ positive development of ISS.

“…48,63 Meta-analysis of 13 trials with 990 participants showed resilience interventions improved resilience moderately (pooled SMD 0.74, 95%CI 0.03 to 1.46, I 2 96%) (Figure 2a) compared to sham or no intervention. 48,[51][52][53][54]57,58,63,[66][67][68][69] Data in one study contained two independent comparisons (i.e. with no participants in common) based on baseline characteristics and therefore appears twice to include all participants.…”

ObjectivesGrit, resilience and a growth‐mindset influence students' ability to positively adapt to the challenges of health professional training. However, it is unclear if interventions can improve these traits. This systematic review aimed to explore if interventions can improve these traits in health professional students (primary) and their impact on academic and/or wellbeing outcomes (secondary).MethodsA comprehensive search of CINAHL, MEDLINE, Eric and Embase was conducted from inception until 15 March 2023. Randomised or non‐randomised controlled trials and single‐group intervention studies that aimed to improve health professional students' resilience, grit and/or growth‐mindset were eligible for inclusion. Two reviewers independently screened studies for inclusion and evaluated quality using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Post‐intervention data from randomised and non‐randomised control trials were pooled using a random‐effects model to calculate standardised mean differences (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsResilience interventions improved resilience by a moderate amount in 13 studies with 990 participants (pooled SMD 0.74, 95%CI 0.03 to 1.46) and a large amount when interventions were greater than one session duration in 10 trials with 740 participants (pooled SMD 0.97, 95%CI 0.08 to 1.85). Grit and growth‐mindset interventions improved grit (pooled SMD 0.48, 95%CI −0.05 to 1.00, n = 2) and growth‐mindset (pooled SMD 0.25, 95%CI −0.18 to 0.68, n = 2) by a small amount. Resilience interventions decreased perceived stress by a small amount (pooled SMD −0.38, 95%CI −0.62 to −0.14, n = 5).ConclusionsResilience interventions improve resilience and decrease perceived stress in health professional students. Preliminary evidence suggests grit and growth‐mindset interventions may also benefit health professional students. Interventions may be most effective when they are longer than one session and targeted to students with low baseline levels of resilience and grit.
