Because there have been very few recent studies focusing on the nursing studies of Chinese male learners in Hong Kong, this paper reports some findings on the educational experiences of such students from a local university, giving them a chance to voice out their concerns and express their feelings. In this qualitative ethnographical study, 18 second- to fourth-year male nursing students were recruited by purposive snowball sampling and invited to participate in individual semi-structured interviews for the collecting of data. The taped recordings were transcribed and translated. Following this, five themes were identified for content analysis. The findings of this study suggest that people would be more likely to accept male nurses; and male nursing students would be more able see their role as nurses with the acceptance of some feminine subjects in the nursing curriculum. This study provided male nursing students the chance to express their thoughts and experiences on nursing education, which will suggest further modifications to the curriculum design and implementation.
由于最近很少有研究关注香港中文男学生的护理学习，本文报告了当地一所大学此类学生的一些教育经历，让他们有机会表达自己的关注和感受。在这项定性民族志研究中，通过有目的的滚雪球抽样，招募了 18 名二至四年级的男护理学生，并邀请他们参加个人半结构化访谈以收集数据。录音被转录和翻译。随后，确定了五个主题进行内容分析。本研究的结果表明，人们更有可能接受男护士；而且男护理学生更有可能接受护理课程中的一些女性科目，从而将自己视为护士。这项研究为男护理学生提供了表达他们对护理教育的想法和经验的机会，这将为课程设计和实施提出进一步的修改建议。
