Little is known about nursing students' illness beliefs and attitudes towards the involvement of families in nursing care during the COVID-19 epidemic. Focusing on family nursing throughout an undergraduate nursing education is not only appropriate or critical but also essential for advancing family nursing practice.
To evaluate the differences in undergraduate and graduate nursing students' perceptions of illness beliefs and their family nursing practice skills at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic.
A cross-sectional study.
The Faculty of Nursing at the University of Iceland.
Of the nursing and midwifery students, 109 participated in 2020 from one university.
Data was collected regarding illness beliefs and attitudes towards family involvement in nursing care, through questionnaires via the Red Cap software.
The main finding indicated that the graduate students reported more confidence or reassurance regarding their knowledge of the cause of an illness, control, effect, suffering and what is the most and the least helpful in coping with an illness/health disorder when compared to the undergraduate students (t-value = -2.50, p-value = 0.014). Additionally, graduate nursing students also reported higher positive attitudes towards family importance in nursing care than undergraduate students (t-value = -2.16, p-value = 0.033).
Even though the graduate students reported higher illness beliefs than undergraduate students, the undergraduate students reported a reasonably high or over medium high score, on the illness beliefs scale. University nursing educators need to be aware that nursing students' knowledge, skills and attitudes towards family nursing practice at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic shape clinical competence in family nursing within health care settings.
在 COVID-19 疫情期间，对于护理学生的疾病观念以及他们对家庭参与护理的态度，我们知之甚少。在本科护理教育中关注家庭护理不仅是合适的或关键的，而且对于推进家庭护理实践也是必不可少的。
评估本科和研究生护理学生在 COVID-19 大流行期间对疾病观念的看法以及他们的家庭护理实践技能的差异。
横断面研究。
冰岛大学护理学院。
来自一所大学的 109 名护理和助产士学生参加了 2020 年的研究。
通过 Red Cap 软件的问卷收集有关疾病观念和对家庭参与护理的态度的数据。
主要发现表明，与本科学生相比，研究生报告了更多的信心或安心，他们对疾病原因、控制、影响、痛苦以及最有助于应对疾病/健康障碍的方法有更多的了解（t 值=-2.50，p 值=0.014）。此外，研究生护理学生还报告了比本科学生更高的积极态度，认为家庭在护理中的重要性（t 值=-2.16，p 值=0.033）。
尽管研究生报告的疾病观念比本科学生更高，但本科学生在疾病观念量表上的得分仍然相当高或高于中等偏高水平。大学护理教育者需要意识到，护理学生在 COVID-19 大流行期间对家庭护理实践的知识、技能和态度，塑造了他们在医疗保健环境中进行家庭护理的临床能力。
