“…The result of the current study indicated that Harvard University had the highest number of publications, centrality, and citations, suggesting that this institution contributed much to applying SEM in nursing research (Carlile et al, 2022;Radwin et al, 2019). University of Toronto published 48 articles with a centrality of 0.10, implying that this institution also played a key role in this field (Bruno et al, 2022;Buckley et al, 2021). Additionally, the overlay visualization mapping indicated that University of Massachusetts and Kyune Hee University have also made contribution in this field in the recent years (Ayotte et al, 2022;S.…”

ObjectivesThe present study is aimed at characterizing and identifying the important research trends of the application of structural equation modelling (SEM) in nursing research by bibliometric analysis, and further providing reference for nursing researchers to conduct SEM research.MethodsA descriptive bibliometric analysis of publications in the application of SEM in nursing research. Literatures were retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) core collection database On April 30, 2022. CiteSpace 6.1.R1 and VOSviewer 16 software were used for visualization and bibliometric analysis.ResultsThe annual publication indicated an increasing trend in the future. The intellectual structures of the application of SEM in nursing researches included patient safety, cross-cultural comparison, compassion fatigue, benchmarking, patient discharge, China, psychometrics, and policy. The hotpots and development trends include job satisfaction, nursing home, and nursing student.ConclusionThe hotspots and development trends related to the application of SEM in nursing research mentioned in this study may be helpful for researchers to explore new directions in this field. The intellectual structures and development trends were found in the application of SEM in nursing researches in this study. The awareness of the clusters and bursts in this field can help nursing researchers avoid overlooking some important issues when conducting SEM, and provide nurse researchers with good practice guidelines for conducting SEM.

ObjectivesResearch indicates that people with lower socioeconomic status (SES) receive inferior healthcare and experience poorer health outcomes compared with those with higher SES, in part due to health professional (HP) bias. We conducted a scoping review of the impact of HP bias about SES on clinical decision-making and its effect on the care of adults with lower SES.DesignJBI scoping review methods were used to perform a systematic comprehensive search for literature. The scoping review protocol has been published inBMJ Open.Data sourcesMedline, Embase, ASSIA, Scopus and CINAHL were searched, from the first available start date of the individual database to March 2023. Two independent reviewers filtered and screened papers.Eligibility criteriaStudies of all designs were included in this review to provide a comprehensive map of the existing evidence of the impact of HP bias of SES on clinical decision-making and its effect on the care for people with lower SES.Data extraction and synthesisData were gathered using an adapted JBI data extraction tool for systematic scoping reviews.ResultsSixty-seven papers were included from 1975 to 2023. 35 (73%) of the included primary research studies reported an association between HP SES bias and decision-making. Thirteen (27%) of the included primary research studies did not find an association between HP SES bias and decision-making. Stereotyping and bias can adversely affect decision-making when the HP is fatigued or has a high cognitive load. There is evidence of intersectionality which can have a powerful cumulative effect on HP assessment and subsequent decision-making. HP implicit bias may be mitigated through the assertiveness of the patient with low SES.ConclusionHP decision-making is at times influenced by non-medical factors for people of low SES, and assumptions are made based on implicit bias and stereotyping, which compound or exacerbate health inequalities. Research that focuses on decision-making when the HP has a high cognitive load, would help the health community to better understand this potential influence.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the communication skills and empathy levels of physiotherapy and rehabilitation students according to their individual and academic characteristics. Material and Methods: A total of 481 physiotherapy and rehabilitation students (mean age: 20.43±1.85 years) were included in the study. Students' individual and academic characteristics, communication skills and empathy levels were recorded with a survey form structured with the “Google Forms” application. The structured survey form consisted of a short informational text about the study and its purpose, questions about the individual and academic characteristics of the students, and questions from the Communication Skills Scale and Toronto Empathy Scale. Comparison of two independent groups and more than two independent groups means were performed with the independent samples t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), respectively. When a significant difference was found as a result of comparing the means of more than two groups, Bonferroni correction was used to determine which group caused this difference. Results: It was observed that the communication skills of students who were female (p=0.024), had a democratic family structure (p=0.004), did not have difficulties in interpersonal relationships (p˂0.001), and had a high perceived socio-economic level (p=0.022) were higher. Also, it was concluded that the empathy levels of female students were higher (p˂0.001), while the empathy levels of the 4th grade students were lower (p=0.003). Conclusion: These results revealed that students' communication skills and empathy levels differ according to individual and academic characteristics.
