AIM
The aim of the study was to determine student perceptions of faculty advising and the most effective method of faculty advising.
BACKGROUND
The nursing faculty advisor is important in facilitating the timely completion of the program. Faculty members have initiated synchronous electronic methods of advising to facilitate advising.
METHOD
A descriptive study was conducted with a convenience sample of members of a student nurses’ association. The Faculty Advisor Evaluation Questionnaire was used for data collection via online survey.
RESULTS
With 106 respondents, results demonstrated high levels of student-perceived effectiveness of the advising session, advocacy/accountability, faculty advisor knowledge, and availability. The majority of nursing students reported that face-to-face advising (58.5 percent, n = 62) was the most helpful method.
CONCLUSION
This study is one of the first to examine nursing students’ perceptions of faculty advising. As nursing faculty implement online methods of advising, it is important to evaluate the evidence.
deaths. Passengers who were reported to be unconscious were 33 times more likely to require diversion and 234 times more likely to die during flight. Passengers who required the use of an AED were 35 times more likely to be diverted. Diagnostic category was associated with diversions but not deaths. Neurological (39.1%), cardiac (23.9%), and obstetric and/or gynecological (13.0%) problems accounted for most of the diversions. Obstetric and/or gynecological cases had a diversion rate of 10.7%, which was higher than the rate for neurological (2.5%) or cardiac (4.4%) cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
