“…In general, new graduate nurses enter clinical practice experience through a transition period of approximately 2 years (Ludin, 2018 ). However, because of shortness of nurse workforce in healthcare settings, new hired graduate nurses are required to take responsibilities to observe and provide direct care for patients (Nguyen & Liu, 2021 ) with limited supervision or guidance that allows them fitting into the new environment (Lea & Cruickshank, 2015 ). Due to limited clinical technological skills and professional competence (Duchscher, 2009 ), newly graduate nurses may be less developed in the critical thinking skills (Nursing Executive Center, 2008 ), which is crucial to quality of care and patient's safety (Chen et al, 2021 ).…”

Aim The aim of this study is to describe critical thinking dispositions among newly graduated nurses with different educational background in China and to explore related factors. Design A cross‐sectional questionnaire survey. Methods The data were collected using the Chinese Version of Critical Thinking Dispositions Inventory (CTDI‐CV). Overall, 588 newly graduated nurses finally completed the survey. Spearman and Pearson's correlation coefficients were used to examine the correlation between the CDTI‐CV and nurses' general characteristics. Results In terms of open‐mindedness, analysis and inquisitiveness subscales, significant differences were found among nurses based on three educational level. When dichotomizing total CTDI scores into high and low, nearly 80% of the respondents fell into low score group. Pressure from workplace was high for 68.4% of them. Significant correlation was found among the new graduated nurses' critical thinking ability and their age, education level, reading habit and attitude towards nursing profession.

“…This is consistent with the findings of a study of 597 nurses in Jordan [17], which reported that poor self-evaluation of health was significantly associated with sleep disturbance. Health status has been shown to affect nurses' critical thinking ability, thereby affecting work productivity, job performance, and quality of care [40,41]. This might increase potential work pressure for nurses, further affecting their sleep.…”

Background Many studies have measured sleep disturbances among nurses globally, but none have addressed this issue in Vietnam. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the prevalence of sleep disturbance and identify associated factors among staff nurses in Vietnam. To identify sleep disturbances and associated factors among staff nurses in Vietnam. Methods A cross-sectional design was used in this study. Participant nurses (n = 420) completed a general information questionnaire, the Vietnamese version of the General Sleep Disturbance Scale (GSDS), the Perceived Stress Scale, and the Short Form 12. Data were collected between July and September 2019 from three public hospitals located in southwestern Vietnam. Data were analyzed using Chi-square, independent Student’s t-test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results The average GSDS score was 41.10 (SD = 19.48), indicating sleep disturbances among 46.9% of nurses. Age, health condition, stress, and quality of life had an impact on sleep disturbance. Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that nurses with high stress and poor physical health status were more likely to experience sleep disturbances. Conclusion Vietnamese nursing staff suffers from a high rate of sleep disturbances. Significant predictors included high stress and poor physical health status. Administrators of healthcare services should carefully consider how to conduct interventions to help the nurses handle their sleep disturbances such as stress management and physical health promotion.

“…Inquiry learning is very appropriate to be implemented in teaching chemistry because it can promote analytical thinking, practice critical thinking in evaluating qualitative determination activities, and encourage new thinking in determining cations in the target sample. The inquiry step requires systematic scientific thinking in the HOTS category, starting from asking questions, identifying problems, researching, reporting investigation results, and sharing finding information [27,28]. All of these steps make students directly involved in learning, and ultimately increase knowledge and skills that can be implemented in analysis in solving qualitative determination problems in real life.…”

This study aims to develop and implement an innovative guided inquiry-based learning resource as a strategy for achieving student competence in the teaching of Analytical Chemistry. The research was conducted during the Covid 19 pandemic, involving 30 undergraduate students. Research stages include the development of innovative learning resources with guided inquiry to facilitate students to conduct investigations, include asking, researching, reporting investigation result, and share finding information to hone students higher-order thinking skills (HOTS). A standard inquiry-based learning resource package has been compiled for teaching Cation analysis for undergraduate students. Learning resources and supporting facilities are effective in facilitating students to learn actively in planning and carrying out inquiry assignments and presenting their findings. Thinking skills in the HOTS category have been developed for three aspects, namely the skills to analyze, evaluate, and create for analytical chemistry activities, all of which are classified as very good (M=85.07±1.70). The availability of guided inquiry-based learning resources has succeeded in teaching students to master Cation Analysis, as indicated by the achievement of learning outcomes (M=83.16±4.82) which are classified as good. Guided inquiry-based learning is very appropriate to be used for active learning as a strategy for achieving competence in the field of analytical chemistry
