Racial microaggressions are offensive and intimidating actions toward people of color and occur everywhere, including academia. Select studies report 40% to 98% of students of color report experiences with microaggressions on campuses. The purpose of this study was to describe the experience of microaggressions for diverse graduate nursing students in the online educational environment and to identify faculty strategies to create an inclusive learning milieu.
This descriptive qualitative study employed 12 diverse graduate nursing students who participated in individual interviews about racial microaggressions. Two researchers used thematic analysis to evaluate the qualitative data.
Five relevant themes were (a) online classroom is a barrier for microaggressions, (b) requirement of profile pictures is a risk factor for microaggressions, (c) experiences of past microaggressions carries over to the present, (d) diverse online students are resourceful, and (e) the reality of microaggressions online.
Participants' suggestions, literature evidence, and research findings informed decision/action modes to assist the nurse educator with culturally competent methods to improve online learning spaces and decrease microaggressions for diverse students.
种族微侵犯是针对有色人种的冒犯性和恐吓性行为，无处不在，包括学术界。一些研究报告称，40%至 98%的有色人种学生在校园中经历过微侵犯。本研究的目的是描述多元化研究生护理学生在在线教育环境中经历微侵犯的情况，并确定教师创造包容学习环境的策略。
这项描述性的定性研究采用了 12 名不同的研究生护理学生，他们参加了关于种族微侵犯的个人访谈。两名研究人员使用主题分析来评估定性数据。
五个相关主题包括(a)在线课堂是微侵犯的障碍，(b)要求个人照片是微侵犯的风险因素，(c)过去的微侵犯经历会延续到现在，(d)多元化的在线学生是有创造力的，以及(e)在线微侵犯的现实。
参与者的建议、文献证据和研究结果为决策/行动模式提供了信息，以帮助护士教育者采用文化能力方法来改善在线学习空间，减少多元化学生的微侵犯。
