This study examined how nurses' personal and professional characteristics influenced their response to an educational intervention to improve their cultural knowledge and cultural competence. A one-group repeated measures design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention, which 76 public health nurses (PHNs) attended. Regression analysis showed that nurses with fewer years of nursing experience and higher level of education had a weak association with increased cultural knowledge and cultural competence but learning style and age were not associated with the outcomes.
本研究考察了护士的个人及专业特征如何影响她们对一项旨在提高其文化知识和文化能力的教育干预措施的反应。采用单组重复测量设计来评估该干预措施的效果，76名公共卫生护士参与了此项干预。回归分析表明，护理经验年限较少且教育水平较高的护士与文化知识和文化能力的提高之间关联较弱，但学习风格和年龄与结果并无关联。
