The purpose of this study was to measure school nurses' perceived self-efficacy in providing diabetes care and education to children and to identify factors that correlate with higher self-efficacy levels in the performance of these tasks. The results of this study revealed that the surveyed school nurses perceived a moderate level of self-efficacy in providing diabetes education. Significant findings in this study were positive relationships between self-efficacy and 3 variables: (a) participating in the care of children with diabetes, (b) having type 1 diabetes children in the school system, and (c) supervising children with blood glucose meter testing. There was a significant relationship between higher self-efficacy scores and having a diabetes curriculum. However, only nine school nurses reported having a diabetes curriculum. School nurses can benefit by understanding what factors increase self-efficacy related to diabetes education designed to enhance school-age children's knowledge of diabetes and its management.
本研究的目的是衡量学校护士在为儿童提供糖尿病护理和教育方面的自我效能感，并确定与这些任务表现中较高自我效能水平相关的因素。本研究结果显示，接受调查的学校护士在提供糖尿病教育方面的自我效能感处于中等水平。本研究的重要发现是自我效能感与三个变量之间存在正相关关系：（a）参与糖尿病儿童的护理，（b）学校系统中有1型糖尿病儿童，（c）监督儿童使用血糖仪进行检测。较高的自我效能感得分与拥有糖尿病课程之间存在显著关系。然而，只有九名学校护士报告有糖尿病课程。了解哪些因素会提高与糖尿病教育相关的自我效能感，有助于学校护士更好地开展工作，增强学龄儿童对糖尿病及其管理的认识。
