The Impact Of Quick Response (Qr) Technology On Anxiety With First Semester Nursing Students Related To The Performance Of Psychomotor Skills With Patients In Clinical, Lee-Ann Terri Kenny
The Impact Of Quick Response (Qr) Technology On Anxiety With First Semester Nursing Students Related To The Performance Of Psychomotor Skills With Patients In Clinical, Lee-Ann Terri Kenny
Nursing Theses and Capstone Projects
Anxiety seen with first semester nursing students in a clinical setting when performing psychomotor skills can be a root cause of fear, lack of confidence, ill symptoms, and can lead to unsafe practice ultimately causing injury to patients. The learning and practicing of psychomotor skills occur prior to students first clinical experience, and in most cases over a short period of time. Implementation of Quick Response (QR) technology linked to psychomotor skills during didactic, allowed students quick access to review skills prior to performing skills within the clinical setting. In conclusion, a decrease in anxiety was noted by first semester …
The Calm Project: Teaching Mindfulness Meditation In Primary Care Using Computer-Based Application, Vanessa Norton
The Calm Project: Teaching Mindfulness Meditation In Primary Care Using Computer-Based Application, Vanessa Norton
Nursing Theses and Capstone Projects
Mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) have been studied extensively and the evidence is now credible that even brief techniques, delivered electronically using web-based applications (apps), easily accessed by smart phone, computer, or tablet, are consistently effective at anxiety reduction as well demonstrating efficacy in other commonly occurring comorbidities such as depression, stress, and panic symptoms. The purpose of this DNP project was to examine feasibility and the effect of the app, Calm.com, on anxious adult patients in primary care, using the Recovery Alliance Theory as its theoretical foundation. This pilot study was longitudinal, using a pre-test/post-test measurement of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder …
The Impact Of Simulation-Based Learning Experience On Student Satisfaction, Perceived Self-Confidence, And Anxiety, Michelle Britt Warren
The Impact Of Simulation-Based Learning Experience On Student Satisfaction, Perceived Self-Confidence, And Anxiety, Michelle Britt Warren
Nursing Theses and Capstone Projects
Nurse educators are faced with the challenges of facilitating student learning in shorter time frames along with decreasing student opportunities to further their learning experiences in real-world clinical situations (LaFond & Van Hulle Vincent, 2012; Smith & Barry, 2013). There is an identifiable need for safe environments where students can practice and apply the knowledge they have learned in the didactic component of the course to the clinical situations (LaFond & Van Hulle Vincent, 2012; McClure & Gigliotti, 2012). The capstone project, "The impact of simulation based learning experience on student satisfaction, perceived self-confidence and anxiety" examined the implementation of …
The Effect Of Emotional Freedom Technique On Stress And Anxiety In Nursing Students, Susan L. Patterson
The Effect Of Emotional Freedom Technique On Stress And Anxiety In Nursing Students, Susan L. Patterson
Nursing Theses and Capstone Projects
Stress and anxiety have been identified as significant issues experienced by student nurses during their education. In fact, some studies have suggested that the stress experienced by nursing students is greater than that experienced by medical students, other non-nursing healthcare students, degreed nurses, and the female population in general. A recently introduced energy type therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), combines the tapping of meridian points with a focus on the feared object or negative emotion to provide desensitization to the fear. In addition, there is repetition of a statement of self-acceptance suggested to contribute to cognitive restructuring. The purpose of …

The Use Of Music To Reduce Test Anxiety In Nursing Students, Janice Kaye Fuson
Nursing Theses and Capstone Projects
The purpose of this study was to determine if listening to music at 60-80 beats per minute prior to testing would decrease anxiety. The following null hypotheses were presented, 1. There is no significant difference between the experimental and control group test STATE-TRAIT Anxiety scores. 2. There is no significant difference between experimental and control group pretest STATE and TEST anxiety score and pulse rates. 3. There is no significant difference between experimental and control group post-test STATE and TEST Anxiety Score and pulse rate (Summers et. al 1990). A previous pilot study was used as a basis for additional …
