It is an outcome of mixed personal and professional values, a rational to maintain commitment to identity and professional standards, and act as a protective mechanism of moral distress when value conflict is occurred (Zamanzadeh et al, 2016). There are few studies examined the direct relationship between verbal abuse and nurse's self-esteem.…”

Background: Studies shows that verbal abuse in health care settings is a health-risk factor for both nurses and patients. Design: A cross-sectional descriptive correlational study was conducted jn 2019. Materials and methods: A convenient sample of 200 registered nurses were recruited from two large cities in the North of Jordan. Self-reported questionnaires were used to collect data. Results: Verbal abuse is highly prevalent among newly hired registered nurses in Jordan 100%, the mean score of exposure to verbal abuse was M ¼ 6.76, and the effect of verbal abuse scale was M ¼ 28.35. The result of person r indicated that there is a significant negative correlation between verbal abuse affect/reactions and registered nurses' intention to stay p ¼ ˂0.01, job commitment p ¼ ˂0.01 and self-esteem p ¼ ˂0.01. Also, the exposure to verbal abuse is negatively correlated with nurse's job commitment, (r ¼ -.203, p ¼ .004). Conclusion:Verbal abuse is negatively correlated with nurses' self-esteem, intent to stay and job commitment. Implications: Administrators and nurse managers should establish educational training programs and workplace safety protocols to protect nurses and to create a safe positive work environment with no tolerance to verbal abuse.

“…Students might choose such a profession because they have a low self‐concept consistent with that image, or because they feel strongly that it is their calling. A qualitative study using Mruk's model with nursing students showed that self‐esteem was influenced by the value accorded to, and enthusiasm about, their education and profession (Zamanzadeh et al, 2016).…”

Aim To describe nursing student self‐esteem prior to the influence of nursing education and to explore the relationship between self‐esteem and dropout. Design Cohort study. Methods At the beginning of their first year of study, in October 2017, 464 nursing students completed a questionnaire that assessed their self‐esteem level via Tafarodi & Swann Scale and self‐esteem profile following Mruk's model, along with sociodemographic information, state anxiety, self‐efficacy, intention to continue and social support. One year later, data on grades and re‐enrolment were collected. Multivariate analyses explored the factors influencing self‐esteem level (multiple regression), self‐esteem profile (multinomial logistic regression) and dropout (binary logistic regression). Results/Findings The mean level of self‐esteem was 50.8 (9.0), scale of 16 to 80. Forty‐nine per cent of self‐esteem profiles were classified as ‘high’, 20.1% as ‘defensive acceptance based’, 11.2% as ‘defensive achievement based’ and 19.6% as ‘low’. State anxiety (p < 0.0001), self‐efficacy about completion of the nursing programme (p < 0.0001) and self‐efficacy about internship (p < 0.0001) were associated with self‐esteem. The dropout rate was 21.5%. Self‐esteem level (p = 0.039) and academic performance (p < 0.0001) were associated with dropout. Conclusion While nursing student self‐esteem is often described as low, we know little about its baseline before entering the nursing programme and the factors that influence it. The dropout rate among first‐year nursing students is high, but self‐esteem is rarely explored as a possible explanation. We found that students had medium, and potentially fragile, self‐esteem when starting their nursing education, and that self‐esteem was associated with dropout. Impact Given that association and the impact of self‐esteem on well‐being and professional behaviour, educational institutions should foster self‐esteem both generally and in students with anxiety or low self‐efficacy. Future research should explore nursing student self‐esteem using a longitudinal mixed methods approach. Society should value nurses and nursing students.

“… 14 Self-esteem includes nursing student's sense of honour about themselves which can impact academic failure, dropping out, or vice versa (their academic achievements. 15 However, no study was found to be specifically on the need for clinical nursing educators’ awareness about their influence on students' self-esteem. Doing further studies in this field is recommended.…”

Introduction: Despite being aware of the importance of nurses’ role in providing clinical training to nursing students, studies show that sufficient research has not yet been conducted on the experience of clinical nurses who are engaged in training nursing students outside their normal working hours. The present study aim to describe the experience of these nurses who are training outside their routine working hours. Methods: This study was conducted using descriptive-phenomenology method. Twelve nurses was participated in this research. Data were collected using purposive sampling method and face to face interviews based on nurses’ real life experience of students’ learning in clinical settings through answering open-ended questions. Spiegel burg analysis method was used to analyze the data. Results: The result of data analysis was the derivation of four themes and eight sub-themes. Themes included "nurses as teaching sources", "changes in the balance of doing routine tasks", "professional enthusiasm", and "nurses as students' professional socialization source of inspiration". Sub-themes included "efficient education", "poor education", "support", "interference in the role," "self-efficacy development", "inner satisfaction", "positive imaging" and "being a model". Conclusion: It is necessary that academic centers plan for teaching nurses working on a contractual basis in the field of the evaluation method and various methods of teaching. The findings also suggested the development of individual self-efficacy in clinical nurses who train students.
