Feminist concerns of the nursing profession are examined and it is argued that feminism provides the ideology and impetus for social change. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects on the attitudes and beliefs of nursing students who take a feminist-oriented women's health course. The course went beyond a scientific model of women's health and examined women's health issues as they are related to the concerns of women as consumers and providers. A questionnaire assessing the effects of the course was administered at the beginning and again at the end of the course. Results indicated that the course produced significant changes in the attitudes and beliefs of the experimental subjects in areas of professional activism; high regard for self, nurses, and women; and social activism against sexism in the media and violence against women.
本文探讨了护理行业中女权主义相关问题,并认为女权主义为社会变革提供了意识形态和动力。本研究旨在调查参加以女权主义为导向的女性健康课程对护理专业学生态度和信念的影响。该课程超越了女性健康的科学模式,将女性健康问题与女性作为消费者和提供者所关心的问题联系起来进行研究。在课程开始和结束时分别发放了一份评估该课程效果的问卷。结果表明,该课程在职业行动主义、对自我、护士和女性的高度尊重,以及反对媒体中的性别歧视和针对女性暴力的社会行动主义等方面,使实验对象的态度和信念产生了显著变化。
