Numerous benefits have been reported for student-led conferences, such as increased leadership. This competence has been recognized as important for nurses so as to ensure the provision of safe and high-quality care in complex environments. However, research has yet to examine empirically the impact of student-led conferences on students' leadership behaviours.
To examine the impact that participation in a student-led conference had on the self-perceived leadership competence of nursing undergraduates.
Quasi-experimental single group pre-post intervention study.
Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at the Universitat Internacional de Catalunya.
31 students enrolled in two elective modules offered during the final year (fourth year) of a nursing degree programme.
Pre-post assessment of self-perceived leadership behaviours among nursing students involved in planning and organizing a scientific conference. In addition to carrying out the tasks of organizing the Conference, all students participated as co-authors of an oral communication, thus being able to develop both cognitive and non-cognitive domains. Leadership was measured using ES_SALI scale, the Spanish version of the Self-Assessment Leadership Instrument.
Involvement in the student-led conference led to a statistically significant increase in self-perceived leadership competence among nursing undergraduates (p < .001). Both the total ES_SALI score and scores on each of its four dimensions (Strategic thinking, Emotional intelligence, Impact and influence, and Teamwork skills) increased significantly, and the percentage change was above 8% in all cases (p < .01). The greatest increase (10.99%) corresponded to the 'Impact and influence' dimension of leadership.
The results suggest that student-led conferences are an effective way of helping nursing undergraduates to develop their leadership competence.
学生主导的会议已被报道有诸多益处,比如增强领导力。这种能力已被认为对护士很重要,以便在复杂环境中确保提供安全且高质量的护理。然而,研究尚未实证检验学生主导的会议对学生领导行为的影响。
考察参与学生主导的会议对护理本科生自我感知的领导能力的影响。
准实验单组干预前后研究。
加泰罗尼亚国际大学医学与健康科学学院。
31名学生,他们参加了护理学位课程最后一年(第四年)开设的两个选修模块。
对参与科学会议规划和组织的护理专业学生的自我感知领导行为进行干预前后评估。除了承担组织会议的任务外,所有学生还作为口头交流的共同作者参与其中,从而能够在认知和非认知领域都得到发展。使用ES_SALI量表(自我评估领导工具的西班牙语版本)来衡量领导力。
参与学生主导的会议使护理本科生自我感知的领导能力在统计学上有显著提高(p <.001)。ES_SALI总分及其四个维度(战略思维、情商、影响力和团队合作技能)的得分均显著提高,所有情况下的百分比变化均超过8%(p <.01)。增幅最大的(10.99%)对应领导力的“影响力”维度。
结果表明,学生主导的会议是帮助护理本科生培养领导能力的有效方式。
