Abstract

Background: Self-esteem is a subjective assessment of one’s own value and worth as a person. Self-esteem is recognized as an indicator of a person’s mental health, with lower levels associated with mental conditions such as stress and depression. In the context of nursing education, self-esteem has been linked to student’s academic performance, clinical competence, and overall well-being. Existing literature suggests that self-esteem among student nurses varies across countries and cultures. Assessing the self-esteem level among student nurses is essential for identifying students at risk of experiencing academic difficulties or mental health problems. Objective: The study aimed to assess the self-esteem level among student nurses at Al-Majmaah University, Saudi Arabia. Methods: A cross-sectional design was employed and conducted with 346 nursing students conveniently selected at Majmaah University in Saudi Arabia in May 2023. A self-reported questionnaire utilizing the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) was employed. Data were analyzed using SPSS Statistics software, including descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. Results: The findings revealed that 265 students (76.6%) had moderate self-esteem levels, 53 students (15.3%) had low self-esteem, and 28 students (8.1%) had high levels of self-esteem. Examination of self-esteem in relation to socio-demographic variables resulted in statistically significant correlations with the year of study, physical health, psychological health, and father’s education (p <0.05). Conclusion: The study’s results offer valuable insights for nurse educators, which can serve as a compass for designing educational and awareness programs to boost self-esteem among student nurses. These initiatives hold significance in equipping students with the necessary attributes for their upcoming roles as professional nurses. Nonetheless, further investigations are warranted to delve into self-esteem and associated factors.

Abstract

Background: The internet has become an inevitable tool for information-seeking and communication in today’s modern era. However, ironically it has driven humankind to become more dependent, leading to addiction. Internet addiction has increased exponentially at all levels of society, especially university students, impeding their physical, psychological, and social well-being. Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between academic procrastination and internet addiction and determine the influence of academic procrastination on internet addiction among Thai university students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 470 participants selected through multi-stage cluster random sampling from a university in eastern Thailand. The data collection was conducted between 29 November 2022 and 27 January 2023. The data were gathered using a demographic data form, an internet addiction test, and a procrastination assessment scale for the students’ questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, and simple linear regression were employed for data analysis. Results: The results revealed that academic procrastination (M = 49.68, SD = 12.61) and internet addiction (M = 65.26, SD = 5.60) were at a moderate level. A positive correlation was identified between academic procrastination and internet addiction (r = 0.33, p <0.01), indicating a low relationship. Academic procrastination also had a significant predictive power on internet addiction, accounting for 11.3% of the variance (R2 adjusted = 0.113, F (1, 468) = 59.583, p <0.001). Conclusion: The findings indicated the significant role of academic procrastination on internet addiction. Therefore, it is crucial that nurses should formulate interventions by considering this factor and emphasize self-regulatory and time-management skills and practical ways to limit internet dependence. Furthermore, the findings suggest that nurses could assess the procrastination level among students, devise prevention strategies, and organize awareness campaigns to instill information about rational internet use that aids in mitigating the risks and preventing them from getting addicted.

Abstract

Background: After hip fracture surgery, patients often experience complications and a decline in mobility, leading to physical disability and increased dependency on caregivers. This may result in reduced independence, institutionalization, and higher mortality rates. However, there is limited research on mobility and its influencing factors in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery in Thailand. Objective: This study aimed to determine the factors influencing mobility in patients with fractured hips within one year after surgery.  Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 143 randomly selected participants who had undergone hip fracture surgery between August 2022 to February 2023. Mobility and its influencing factors were measured using standardized questionnaires, including the De Morton Mobility Index, Parker Mobility Scale, Charlson Comorbidity Index, General Practitioner Assessment of Cognition, Groningen Orthopedic Social Support Scale, Fatigue Severity Scale, Pain Rating Scale, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression were utilized for data analysis. Results:  The mean mobility score for the patients was 48.86 out of 100 (SD = 17.89). The study found that comorbidity (β = -0.156, p = 0.009), cognitive function (β = 0.310, p <0.001), social support (β = 0.145, p = 0.010), pain (β = -0.176, p = 0.004), fatigue (β = -0.249, p <0.001), and sleep (β = -0.169, p = 0.009) collectively influenced mobility in patients after hip fracture surgery, explaining 61.8% of the variance (R2 = 0.618; F = 36.598; p <0.001). Conclusion: The study’s results provide valuable insights for nurses to target these modifiable factors to enhance patients’ mobility. However, it is essential to note that patients with comorbidity and poor cognitive function may face difficulty maintaining mobility. Nurses should be attentive to these patients and provide appropriate management. Additionally, early rehabilitation should be initiated promptly to optimize outcomes.
