The aim of this study was to assess whether there is prejudice toward obese persons among student nurses and registered nurses.
A total of 379 participants were included (190 student nurses, 189 registered nurses). The Fat Phobia Scale and Belief About Obese Persons Scale were used to determine the prejudice.
Registered nurses were found to have more negative prejudices toward obese persons than those of student nurses. These prejudices were determined to be influenced by the nurses' body mass index and having an obese person in the family.
Both groups had negative prejudices toward obese persons, there was a higher level of prejudice among the registered nurses. These prejudices can have a negative impact on healthcare practices.
本研究旨在评估实习护士和注册护士中是否存在对肥胖者的偏见。
共纳入379名参与者(190名实习护士,189名注册护士)。使用肥胖恐惧症量表和对肥胖者的信念量表来确定偏见程度。
发现注册护士对肥胖者的负面偏见比实习护士更多。这些偏见被确定受到护士的体重指数以及家中有肥胖者的影响。
两组对肥胖者都有负面偏见,注册护士中的偏见程度更高。这些偏见会对医疗保健实践产生负面影响。
