“…Our own study allowed for concluding that students most satisfied with the realization of clinical classes were those students of nursing who perceived a low level of stress. In the study by Moon and Jung (2020), similar conclusions were drawn that people experiencing lower levels of stress were more satisfied with clinical practice [ 47 ].…”

Background: Nursing students’ education process is related to the occurrence of difficult and stressful situations, especially during clinical placement. The purpose of the education is to develop critical thinking, clinical decision making and teamwork skills in students. This process should allow the students to integrate into the clinical environment and develop their professional identity. The goal of this research was to assess the relationship between perceived stress and psychosocial factors. Methods: The research was conducted in 2019 among 307 nursing students in Poland. Research questionnaires used in the study were: Perceived Stress Scale, Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, Self-Esteem Scale, Life Satisfaction Scale, Life Orientation Test-R and Clinical Learning Environment Inventory. Results: There was a significant correlation between stress perceived by the surveyed nursing students and psychosocial components as well as teacher support and student’s satisfaction with clinical education. Satisfaction with the clinical education during the implementation of clinical activities was the highest in people experiencing a low level of stress. The highest level of teacher support was reported by people experiencing a higher level of stress. Conclusion: A higher level of perceived stress corresponded to a lower level of self-efficacy, lower life satisfaction, lower life orientation and lower self-esteem of students.

“…Moreover, Zhang (2020) found that across three studies, one of which was time‐lagged by 4 weeks, there was a strong link between trait gratitude and life satisfaction. Trait gratitude is related to satisfaction in other life domains as well, including job satisfaction (Kim et al, 2019; Moon & Jung, 2020) and satisfaction in school (Sun et al, 2014). Trait gratitude is also correlated with compassion satisfaction (Kim et al, 2019), defined as the pleasurable and satisfying feelings that come from helping others, often relevant in healthcare/service contexts.…”

“…In addition to feeling more satisfied across various domains of life, individuals high in trait gratitude are better able to extract meaning from situations and life as a whole. Trait gratitude is positively related to meaning in life and perceived autonomy (Aghababaei et al, 2018) and negatively related to burnout (Kim et al, 2019; and perceived stress (e.g., Corona et al, 2020;Moon & Jung, 2020;Wood et al, 2007).…”

Appreciating social science research on gratitude: An integrative review for organizational scholarship on gratitude in the workplace

Though gratitude research in organizational behavior (OB) is nascent, this emotion has a rich history in the social sciences. Research has shown gratitude to promote prosocial behaviors, encourage personal well-being, and foster interpersonal relationships. However, gratitude research has been siloed among these three outcomes of gratitude (moral, wellness, and relational). Similarly, past reviews of gratitude have focused on only one group of outcomes, one of its forms (trait, state, or expressed), or empirical findings without emphasis on the theoretical underpinnings. In contrast, this review recognizes that each type of gratitude, its functions, and outcomes are part of a single process model of gratitude. As such, in the current review, we provide a comprehensive assessment of gratitude in the social sciences by distilling and organizing the literature per our process model of episodic gratitude. Then, we translate the insights for management scholars, highlighting possible differences and synergies between extant research and workplace gratitude thereby helping advance "gratitude science" in the workplace. In all, this review (a) examines definitions and operationalizations of gratitude and provides recommendations for organizational research; (b) proposes a process model of episodic workplace gratitude as a conceptual map to guide future OB research on gratitude; (c) reviews empirical gratitude research through the lens of our process model; and (d) discusses the current state of the literature, important differences for workplace gratitude, and future directions for organizational scholars.

“…30 A recent quantitative study of nursing students reveals a significant relationship between a disposition of gratitude and improved clinical practice satisfaction. 31 Students expressed the theme of finding gratitude through the new opportunities they had despite disappointment. One student wrote, "Although this was not the experience of mentorship that I was hoping for, the pandemic and all that it has brought out in regards to health care has taught me a lot.…”

“…Student reflections align with current literature that links satisfaction with clinical experiences with gratitude. 31 For several students, it was clear that their disappointment persisted but was tempered by gratitude: "I understand that we are getting the best experience possible, and I am grateful to have at least that, but it is not equivalent." Students identified specific learning experiences that they were grateful for: "I have had the opportunity to perform leadership roles with my peers in this adapted form of mentorship and I am entirely grateful for the experience it has given me."…”

Background: Research suggests that clinical practicums in hospital-based settings are important, even if condensed, to provide students with the opportunity for real-world learning experiences. Rational dialogue makes learning meaningful and empowers students to learn by reflecting on experiences. Problem: The COVID-19 pandemic minimized availability of traditional one-to-one mentorship practicums. Approach: This article describes the use of critical reflection on experiences in an undergraduate senior mentorship course to assess student learning through the thematic analysis of writing assignments. Guided by Mezirow's transformative learning theory, students completed a traditional group clinical practice, written reflective journals and virtual seminars focused on role development, and reflection on concurrent learning in clinical and simulation experiences. Outcomes: Transformative learning was evident in their writing. Student journals demonstrated themes of responding to change, discovering resilience, developing confidence, finding gratitude, embracing advocacy, and transforming and becoming. Conclusions: Through critical reflection, students recognized the opportunities mentorship afforded them, despite challenges.
