The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between gender and marginalization in nursing academia.
Men continue to be significantly underrepresented in nursing academia because they experience numerous barriers to their integration and success in the profession.
A descriptive cross-sectional design was implemented in this pilot study to investigate differences in perceived marginalization between male versus female faculty teaching in Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education-accredited colleges. Marginality was measured using the Englund Marginality Index (EMI).
Male nursing faculty participants reported higher scores on the EMI ( M = 43.6, SD = 9.9) than female faculty ( M = 37.2, SD = 9.6), t (1428) = 6.0, p < .001.
As the nursing faculty shortage continues to increase, it is imperative that leaders in nursing education steer their efforts toward attracting a more robust and diverse faculty population.
本研究旨在探讨护理学术界中性别与边缘化之间的关系。
男性在护理学术界的代表性仍然严重不足,因为他们在融入该职业并取得成功方面面临众多障碍。
在这项试点研究中采用了描述性横断面设计,以调查在护理教育联合委员会认证的学院中,男性与女性教师在感知到的边缘化方面的差异。使用英格伦边缘化指数(EMI)来衡量边缘化程度。
男性护理教师参与者在EMI上的得分(M = 43.6,标准差 = 9.9)高于女性教师(M = 37.2,标准差 = 9.6),t(1428)= 6.0,p <.001。
随着护理教师短缺问题持续加剧,护理教育领域的领导者必须努力吸引更强大、更多样化的教师群体。
