“…Nursing sources primarily described singular, group, and multiple mini-interview assessments in the holistic process (Roach et al, 2019; Scott & Zerwic, 2015; Wagner et al, 2020; Wros & Noone, 2018; Zerwic et al, 2018). Few nursing authors criticized the lack of reliability/validity or bias associated with interviews (Macduff et al, 2016; Wagner et al, 2020), though several described holistic review implementation barriers, including a lack of holistic review knowledge (Glazer et al, 2016), limited leadership support (Barton et al, 2017), lack of legal guidance (Barton et al, 2017; DeWitty, 2018; Glazer et al, 2016; Scott & Zerwic, 2015), and limited implementation resources (Barton et al, 2017; Glazer et al, 2016). In a study of deans of nursing, Glazer et al (2016) discovered concerns regarding backlash for denying admittance to metrically qualified students, whereas Zerwic et al (2018) found that interviewed applicants voiced concerns regarding the negative effects of not being part of a minority group.…”
