The extremely small number of men choosing the nursing profession as a career, coupled with the continuing shortage of nurses, prompted an investigation of male high school students' opinions about nursing. Kohler and Edwards' Career Questionnaire was administered to 126 male high school students representing grades 9-12 from three area public schools. Findings show that although the majority of subjects have a positive perception of nurses and nursing, the vast majority are not planning on entering the profession. Analysis of subjects' beliefs about nurses' financial status offers a possible explanation.
选择护理专业作为职业的男性数量极少,再加上护士持续短缺,促使人们对高中男生对护理的看法展开调查。科勒和爱德华兹的职业问卷被发放给来自三所地区公立学校9至12年级的126名高中男生。调查结果显示,尽管大多数受试者对护士和护理工作有积极的看法,但绝大多数人并不打算从事这一职业。对受试者关于护士经济状况的看法进行分析,或许能找到一个解释。
