Effectiveness of interventions for the prevention or management of workplace violence in student nurses during clinical placement: A systematic review. J Adv Nurs 2024. [PMID: 39078141 DOI: 10.1111/jan.16357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/31/2024]
Abstract
AIM To systematically investigate the effectiveness of interventions for managing workplace violence experienced by registered nursing students during clinical placement. DESIGN A systematic review of experimental studies. METHODS The review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The key search concepts such as "Nursing students", "Education", "workplace violence", "clinical placement" and "clinical study" were inspected to identify relevant articles (Appendix A). Two independent reviewers completed screening, critical appraisal and data extraction. Due to heterogeneity among the included studies, results were synthesized narratively. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE (Ovid), CINAHL (EBSCOhost), Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate Analytics), Scopus (Elsevier), Embase (Ovid), Cochrane CENTRAL, ERIC (ProQuest), ProQuest Central and ProQuest Social Science Premium Collection were searched from inception to 27th February 2023. RESULTS A total of 13 studies were included in this review. The predominant intervention for managing workplace violence experienced by registered nursing students during clinical placements was education. Approaches varied among studies and included didactic teaching, e-learning, role-playing and simulation practice. The included studies showed uncertain improvements in registered nursing students' confidence, coping skills, knowledge, competence and self-efficacy in dealing with workplace violence during clinical placements. Only one study assessed the incidence rate of workplace violence and found that a multi-faceted intervention involving both staff and students decreased the incidence. CONCLUSION Given the heterogeneity of educational interventions, the effect of interventions for managing workplace violence during students' clinical placement is uncertain. To address this gap, high-quality, proactive and combined interventions at both institutional and organizational levels are needed.

J Nurs Adm 2022; 52:359-364.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To test the instrument, Nursing Student Perception of Civil and Uncivil Behaviors (NSPCUB) in newly licensed nurses' (NLNs') to create a credible measure of NLNs' perceptions of civil/uncivil behaviors by RNs. BACKGROUND Uncivil behaviors in the workplace result in poor morale, absenteeism, and turnover. When targeted toward NLNs, the outcome of these behaviors can affect not only a job but a future career. METHODS A convenience sample of NLNs from 3 cohorts completed the modified NSPCUB-NLN 12-item survey. Exploratory factor analysis and reliability statistics were conducted. Concurrent validity was evaluated. RESULTS Exploratory factor analysis identified passive and active incivility subscales with high reliability (overall Cronbach's α = 0.917). Participants expressing positive experiences scored higher than those with negative experiences (P < 0.0001), supporting instrument validity. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that the NSPCUB-NLN is a valid and reliable instrument for use with NLNs. This will assist nurse leaders in evaluating unit cultures for incivility, guiding interventions for a healthy work environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Civil environment in nursing education enhances achieving learning outcomes. Addressing incivility can be crucial to improve academic achievements. The purpose of this study was examining the psychometric properties of the Arabic version of the Incivility in Nursing Education-Revised scale regarding nursing faculty. METHODS This cross-sectional study conducted in five Arab countries using a convenience sampling strategy. Two hundred twenty-five Arab-speaking nursing faculty participated in this study. RESULTS Exploratory factor analysis confirmed the construct validity of the translated Arabic version of the Incivility in Nursing Education-Revised that are related to nursing faculty. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and a coefficient of 0.867 indicated strong scale reliability. CONCLUSION The Arabic version of the Incivility in Nursing Education-Revised scale that is related to nursing faculty is a valid and reliable tool that can be used to evaluate incivility among Arab-speaking nursing faculty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Workplace incivility is a common problem in nursing, and novice nurses are particularly vulnerable to incivility. METHOD Cognitive rehearsal training to defend against incivility was presented to resident nurses. RESULTS Three months after the educational intervention, 55% of nurses reported that they had witnessed incivility in the past month and 45% reported that they had responded to the incivility when it occurred. CONCLUSION Most of the nurses expressed that the training improved their ability to manage incivility. Responses to open-ended comments revealed that incivility adversely affects the workplace and that leaders also may benefit from education on incivility and cognitive rehearsal.

Abstract
Clinical experience is essential to helping nursing students to achieve and practice professional knowledge and skills. Published reports indicate nursing students often experience incivility during clinical practice. The purpose of this study was to investigate nursing student incivility experience during their clinical rotations and the relationship of these experiences with their critical thinking dispositions. A cross-sectional descriptive correlational study design was utilized. Data were collected from junior (n = 195) and senior (n = 180) students in a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program in Seoul, Korea between October 15, 2017 and November 20, 2017 using a self-administered survey. Three instruments were used in the survey: six sociodemographic questions, the 13-item Korean version of Uncivil Behavior in Clinical Nursing Education (K-UBCNE) and the 27-item Yoon Critical Thinking Disposition (YCTD) tool. Data analysis revealed junior students reported significantly more incivility from nurses than the senior students (p = .038) during clinical learning experiences. Among YCTD subscales, the Prudence (p = .007) and Self-Confidence critical thinking (p = .007) scores from the senior nursing students were significantly higher than the junior students' scores. No significant relationship was found between experience of incivility and critical thinking disposition scores. Based on the study results, nursing educators, staff nurses, and administrators/managers in nursing should identify incivility toward nursing students during clinical practicums and especially toward junior nursing students. Additional investigation of the relationship between critical thinking and experiences of incivility is warranted, including longitudinal investigations and qualitative studies among junior nursing students to understand their personal experience of incivility in the clinical setting. Findings could inform the development of targeted programs to reduce clinical incivility.
