To evaluate the pattern of internet use and factors that facilitate or dissuade its use among nursing students from a university in Urmia, Iran.
A cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted with 162 nursing students selected through simple random sampling.
The findings indicated that 49.1% of the students used the internet from 15 to 60 min per day. The principal use of the internet was to search for scientific content in the Web. Factors that facilitated internet use were "ease of use" and "Access to experts to solve problems and answer questions", while the dissuasive factors were "lack of concentration", "cost of internet services", and preference for information provided by professors or available directly in textbooks. Internet use by the students was related with the use of this tool in classroom activities and with English fluency.
Students have an internet use pattern aimed at self-study that should be strengthened with knowledge of English, assignments online, familiarization with the use of electronic databases, and other strategies to motivate them to use this technology with greater frequency.
评估伊朗乌尔米亚一所大学护理专业学生的互联网使用模式以及促进或阻碍其使用互联网的因素。
采用横断面描述性研究，通过简单随机抽样选取162名护理专业学生。
研究结果表明，49.1%的学生每天使用互联网15至60分钟。互联网的主要用途是在网上搜索科学内容。促进互联网使用的因素是“使用方便”和“能够接触专家解决问题和答疑”，而阻碍因素是“注意力不集中”、“互联网服务费用”以及对教授提供的信息或直接在教科书中获取的信息的偏好。学生的互联网使用与课堂活动中对该工具的使用以及英语流利程度有关。
学生具有以自学为目的的互联网使用模式，应通过英语知识、在线作业、熟悉电子数据库使用以及其他激励他们更频繁使用这项技术的策略来加强这种模式。
