This study examines the role of self-regulated learning (SRL) in facilitating students' shifts to more sophisticated mental models circulatory system as indicated by both performance and process data. We began with Winne colleagues' information processing model SRL (Winne, 2001; & Hadwin, 1998) used it examine how students regulated their own when using a hypermedia environment learn about system. Undergraduate ( N = 24) were trained use Pretest, posttest, verbal protocol data collected...
Four ampicillin-resistant, beta-lactamase-producing strains of Haempohilus influenzae type b were examined for the presence plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Three resistant contained a 30 x 10-6-dalton (30Mdal) and one resitant strain 3-Mdal plasmid. The ampicillin-sensitive Haemophilus did not contain DNA. Transformation sensitive H. to ampicillin resistance with isolated DNA preparations revealed that structural gene beta-lactamase resided on both species. DNA-DNA hybridization studies...
Abstract Purpose : This article reports on recommendations arising from an invitational workshop series held at the National Institutes of Health for purposes identifying critical genomics problems important to health public that can be addressed through nursing science. The overall purpose Genomic Nursing State Science Initiative is establish a research blueprint based gaps in evidence and expert evaluation current state science comment. Organizing Constructs A Advisory Panel was convened...
Background: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is associated with tumor development in the brain, retina, kidney, skin, heart, and lung. Seizures, intellectual disability, characteristic skin lesions commonly manifest early childhood, but some findings, notably renal angiomyolipomas pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), emerge later, placing adults undiagnosed TSC at increased risk for morbidity mortality. Objective: To describe clinical presentation severity of adult women. Design:...
Purpose To describe the current medical genetic knowledge and perceptions of graduate advanced practice nursing (advanced nurse [APN]/nurse practitioner anesthetist) students using survey data for future integration topics, principles, healthcare issues into curriculum. Data sources Survey APNs’ perceived genetics a review literature from past research studies articles professional journals organizations. Web sites were those National Coalition Health Professions Education in Genetics...
Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe nurse practitioners’ (NPs’) knowledge, use, and perceived comfort level in providing breast cancer risk assessment women clinical settings. Data sources: This descriptive part a needs determine if education training programs on are warranted for NPs. A convenience sample 147 NPs completed surveys assess their knowledge use empiric tools, evaluate assessing women’s developing cancer. Conclusions: Assessing the development is...
Clinical competency validation is essential for nurse practitioner (NP) education and public accountability. While there has been robust discussion around what constitutes clinical assessment, clear consistent definitions measurements remain elusive.This article describes the PRIME-NP model that scalable, reproducible accurately documents NP student across courses.To develop model, work in 5 discrete domains was necessary: (a) development, (b) assessment tool to be used Objective Structured...
This study assessed faculty members' perceived knowledge of medical genetics concepts and conditions, the importance integrating this content into NP curricula how was being done. During a national conference, 40 voluntarily completed surveys. Participants' varied; 35% noted low or very knowledge, only 5% reported high knowledge. Most participants (95%) believed is important, but 10% having separate courses in their programs. Approximately half personal involvement education, 50% barriers to...
Abstract Many genetic/genomic educational opportunities are available to assist nursing faculty in their knowledge and understanding of genetic/genomics. This study was conducted assess advance practice members’ current medical genetics/genomics, integration genetics/genomics content into curricula, any prior formal training/education comfort level teaching genetics/genomic content. A secondary aim conduct a comparative analysis the 2010 data previous 2005, determine changes that have taken...
The public expects nurse practitioners (NPs) to be informed about scientific advances and adjust practice as disease screening management evolves with new research findings. No discipline has evolved more quickly than genomics. This article describes six areas in genomics which NPs should competent, concluding three case studies.
Keeping up with the volume of new genetic information emerging from human genome project is a challenge for almost all healthcare providers, but nurses who received little or no formal training often find it particularly intimidating. Nursing faculty may be reluctant to add content existing courses, much less tackle work teaching an entire course in genetics. This article provides nursing some strategies and straightforward curriculum modifications assist them integrating into graduate-level...
Purpose: This study was part of an educational program conducted to describe nurse practitioners' (NPs') knowledge and perceived comfort level regarding the identification hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC), specifically Lynch syndrome, also referred as nonpolyposis CRC. Data sources: A 3-h workshop developed that included a pretest evaluate NPs' CRC syndromes, focusing on posttest evaluation. Knowledge syndromes assessed via nine-item multiple choice self-report survey. Forty-two NPs...
