BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: The importance of critical thinking in improving treatment practices in, for instance, the nursing profession, cannot be overemphasized. Despite this importance, empirical studies have shown that helping strategies to train learners on critical thinking disposition are needed. Given this knowledge gap, this study investigated the impacts of cognitive-behavioral reflective training for improving the critical thinking disposition of nursing students.
Of all the students screened, a total of 167 participants were assigned to the treatment group and waitlisted control group. A researchers-developed training program aimed at improving critical thinking disposition was delivered in English language by therapists.
Repeated-measures ANOVA showed that there was no significant difference between the critical thinking disposition of nursing students in the treatment and control groups as measured by CTDI-M at the posttest. At the posttreatment and follow-up measures, there were consistently improved impacts of CBRT on the critical thinking disposition of nursing students in Nigeria as measured by CTDI-M.
Following the results, we concluded that cognitive-behavioral reflective training was beneficial and had sustained improvement in enhancing the critical thinking disposition of nursing students.
背景/目的:批判性思维在改善诸如护理专业等治疗实践中的重要性,无论如何强调都不为过。尽管其重要性显著,但实证研究表明,需要有帮助策略来培养学习者的批判性思维倾向。鉴于这一知识空白,本研究调查了认知行为反思训练对提高护理专业学生批判性思维倾向的影响。
在所有筛选出的学生中,共有167名参与者被分配到治疗组和候补对照组。治疗师用英语提供了一个由研究人员开发的旨在改善批判性思维倾向的培训项目。
重复测量方差分析表明,在后测中,通过CTDI-M测量,治疗组和对照组护理专业学生的批判性思维倾向没有显著差异。在治疗后和随访测量中,通过CTDI-M测量,CBRT对尼日利亚护理专业学生的批判性思维倾向始终有改善作用。
根据结果,我们得出结论,认知行为反思训练是有益的,并且在增强护理专业学生的批判性思维倾向方面有持续的改善。
