This descriptive study surveyed the sexual attitudes and nursing practice of 39 nurses who care for adolescents in a large metropolitan teaching hospital. A questionnaire containing 32 Likert scale items and 29 yes/no questions was used to survey the nurses' attitudes toward the sexuality of their patients and the use of sex education and counseling in their patient care. Frequency of answers generated by the participants was used to ascertain their sexual attitudes and characteristics of their nursing practice. Findings indicate that, although the sample recognized the importance of sexuality for the adolescent patient and were theoretically capable of addressing issues of adolescent sexuality, nurses were uncomfortable incorporating issues of sexuality, counseling, and education into their nursing practice.
这项描述性研究调查了在一家大型都市教学医院照顾青少年的39名护士的性态度和护理实践。使用一份包含32个李克特量表项目和29个是/否问题的问卷，来调查护士对其患者性取向的态度以及在患者护理中使用性教育和咨询的情况。参与者给出的答案频率被用于确定他们的性态度和护理实践特点。研究结果表明，尽管样本认识到性取向对青少年患者的重要性，并且在理论上有能力处理青少年性取向问题，但护士们在将性取向、咨询和教育问题纳入其护理实践时感到不自在。
