To assess and compare interprofessional education (IPE) naive pharmacy and nursing student stereotypes prior to completion of an IPE activity. Three hundred and twenty-three pharmacy students and 275 nursing students at Mercer University completed the Student Stereotypes Rating Questionnaire. Responses from pharmacy and nursing students were compared, and responses from different level learners within the same profession also were compared. Three hundred and fifty-six (59.5%) students completed the survey. Pharmacy students viewed pharmacists more favorably than nursing students viewed pharmacists for all attributes except the ability to work independently. Additionally, nursing students viewed nurses less favorably than pharmacy students viewed nurses for academic ability and practical skills. There was some variability in stereotypes between professional years. This study confirms the existence of professional stereotypes, although overall student perceptions of their own profession and the other were generally positive.
在完成跨专业教育(IPE)活动之前,评估并比较对IPE缺乏了解的药学和护理专业学生的刻板印象。默瑟大学的323名药学专业学生和275名护理专业学生完成了《学生刻板印象评分问卷》。比较了药学和护理专业学生的回答,也比较了同一专业内不同水平学习者的回答。356名(59.5%)学生完成了调查。除独立工作能力外,在所有属性方面,药学专业学生对药剂师的看法比护理专业学生对药剂师的看法更积极。此外,在学术能力和实践技能方面,护理专业学生对护士的看法不如药学专业学生对护士的看法积极。不同专业年级之间的刻板印象存在一些差异。本研究证实了专业刻板印象的存在,尽管总体而言,学生对自己专业和其他专业的看法通常是积极的。
