“…The main limitation of the present study is that it is scenario based and only simulates reality so that the participants responded theoretically with actions that they would have taken in each case. However, previous studies using scenarios to simulate real situations have shown that they do represent a suitable method for predicting respondents' actual behavior [43,44]. In addition, the nding that more severe disease was perceived by the respondents as more severe, validate our approach.…”

Background: Developments in genetics‏, have now enabled early detection of fetus genetic abnormalities in utero. In parallel, a woman's right to her body has led to legal changes, which permit abortions under certain conditions. The decision whether to undergo an abortion following the discovery of a fetal abnormality is affected by culture, legal regulations, and attitudes. The aim of the study was to assess the cultural influence on women’s intention to undergo an abortion in case her fetus is diagnosed with a genetic disease. Research Design: A scenario based study conducted in Israel, Germany and Cyprus. A questionnaire presented six scenarios in which a woman is pregnant and her fetus is diagnosed with a mild, moderate or severe genetic disease. For each scenario, the women were asked to rate their perceived severity about having a child with the disease, sense of control over performing an abortion and their intention to undergo an abortion. For analyzing the differences between the countries, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used with Tukey’s-b post hoc tests. Multiple linear regressions were used to detect variables associated with the intention to terminate the pregnancy. Results: A total of 358 women participated in the study 141 Israeli, 121 German and 96 from Cyprus. The results revealed that for all diseases, Israeli women were more inclined to perform an abortion than German and Cypriot women. In all cases Israeli women reported a higher sense of control over performing an abortion and Cypriot women expressed the highest perceived severity. Sense of control, severity perception, being Israeli, and increased age predicted the intention to abort.Conclusions: The intention to abort following the diagnosis of a fetus with a genetic disease is influenced by culture. There is a greater intention to abort when women feel more control, and have a higher perceived severity, regardless of the severity of the disease.

“…The main limitation of the present study is that it is scenario-based that only simulates reality, so the participants responded theoretically, citing the action that they would have taken in each case. However, previous studies using scenarios to simulate real situations have shown that they do represent a suitable method for predicting respondents’ actual behavior (Barnoy et al, 2020; Persky et al, 2007). In addition, the finding that a more severe disease was indeed perceived by the respondents as more severe, validates this approach.…”

Developments in genetics enable detection of fetal genetic abnormalities. The decision whether to abort is affected by culture, perceived severity of abnormality, and legal regulations. The study aimed to assess the cultural differences in women’s intention to abort if their fetus is diagnosed with a genetic disease. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Israel, Germany, and Cyprus. A questionnaire presented six scenarios where the fetus of a pregnant woman is diagnosed with a mild, moderate, or severe genetic disease. For each scenario, the participating women were asked to rate their perceived severity of having a child with the disease, sense of control over performing an abortion, and intention to undergo an abortion. 141 Israeli, 121 German, and 96 Cypriot women participated in the study. The results revealed that Israeli women were more inclined to perform an abortion (Israel: Mild-Disease M ± SD = 3.20 ± 1.37; Moderate-Disease 2.90 ± 1.39; Severe-Disease 4.08 ± 1.51) compared to Cyprus (Mild-Disease SD = 2.74 ± 1.52; Moderate-Disease 2.53 ± 1.27; Severe-Disease 3.41 ± 1.70) and Germany (Mild Disease, M ± SD = 2.38 ± 1.42; Moderate Disease 2.23 ± 1.44; Severe-Disease 2.98 ± 1.51). In all cases, Israeli women reported a higher sense of control over performing an abortion and Cypriot women expressed the highest perceived severity. Sense of control, perceived severity, being Israeli, and increased age explained 31% of the variance in the intention to abort ( F = 54.39). Intention to abort following the diagnosis of a fetus with a genetic disease varies by country. There is a greater intention to abort when women feel more control, and have a higher perceived severity, regardless of the severity of the disease.

The field of nursing informatics is expanding in Israel, which is known as a start-up nation. This study is a systematic literature review aimed to obtain a historical perspective of the Israel's nursing informatics development. To study how nursing informatics has evolved in Israel over the past 20 years, we analyzed two major issues: (1) the development of the nursing informatics field over these years; and (2) nursing informatics studies that were carried out by nurses. The main criteria for choosing these studies were:(1) nursing informatics research conducted in Israel; (2) investigated by nurses; and (3) published in academic international journals, including PhD dissertations. Thirty studies were located, and two main issues were identified: nurse managers who were engaged in health information technology were not recognized as nursing informatics practitioners, and a minority of nurses performed nursing informatics researches. Although many health information technology projects were and are performed in Israel, the nursing informatics field is not fully recognized by Israeli nurses. Therefore, it is essential for Israeli nurses to understand the importance of advancing the nursing informatics body of knowledge, which will give nurses the authorization to become influential as health information technology professionals in areas such as health education, practice, and research-for the benefit of patients.
