The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in school closures and the reopening of schools is considered to be a possible approach to start reversing learning deficits. However, the literature is scarce on the determinants of intention to attend face-to-face classes among nursing students.
This cross-sectional study examined students' intention to attend limited face-to-face classes on school reopening, and its association among the core constructs of the Theory of Planned Behavior. Undergraduate nursing students of one university in the Philippines (n = 322) answered an online questionnaire. Predictor variables were determined by multiple linear regression analysis.
Results demonstrated that nursing students had a high intention (4.47 of 5) to attend limited face-to-face classes. First- and second-year students had significantly higher intention to attend limited face-to-face classes than third- and fourth-year nursing students. Multiple regression analysis suggested that attitude (β = .127, p = .001), subjective norm (β = .400, p = .000), and perceived behavioral control (β = .326, p = .000) positively predicted students' intention to attend face-to-face classes.
As many schools prepare for the gradual reopening of campuses, the different beliefs of students may be considered by nursing schools to better understand students' intention for face-to-face instruction.
COVID-19 大流行导致学校关闭，而复课被认为是弥补学习损失的一种可能方法。然而，关于护理学生返校面对面学习意愿的决定因素的文献却很少。
本横断面研究考察了学生在学校重新开放时参加有限的面对面课程的意愿，以及其与计划行为理论核心结构之间的关联。菲律宾一所大学的本科护理学生（n=322）回答了一份在线问卷。通过多元线性回归分析确定预测变量。
结果表明，护理学生有很高的意愿（5 分为 4.47）参加有限的面对面课程。一、二年级学生比三、四年级护理学生更有意愿参加有限的面对面课程。多元回归分析表明，态度（β=0.127，p=0.001）、主观规范（β=0.400，p=0.000）和行为控制感（β=0.326，p=0.000）均正向预测学生参加面对面课程的意愿。
随着许多学校为逐步重新开放校园做准备，护理学校可能需要考虑学生的不同信念，以更好地理解学生对面对面教学的意愿。
