内容記述2 | In basic nursing education, the involvement of people with psychiatric disorders in lessons is a very effective way of developing nursing students' understanding of such patients. The present study was conducted to examine the success and themes of lessons involving people with psychiatric disorders conducted at this college from 2002. We analyzed student reports on the subject of “Restoring Human Dignity(Human Rights) and Activities Aimed at Autonomy in People With Psychiatric Disorder” following lessons involving people with psychiatric disorders to 1) determine how the students' thinking was deepened and broadened, in order to use this information 2) to elucidate the characteristics of lerning in relation to knowledge, technology, emotions, and values, the four areas in which learning was expected.
The results showed that 1) there was a deepening and broadening of students' thinking in relation to empowerment (49%), autonomy for people with psychiatric disorders (29%), and understanding of supporters(22%), and 2) of the four areas in which learning was expected, most lerning related to emotions(61%), followed by knwledge (24%), values(12%), and skill(4%). It can therefore be inferred that the students learned that activities aimed at autonomy for people with psychiatric disorders and a deeper understanding of supporters are important and that it is essential that this be based on feelings of mutual trust and respect. It is of major significance that, in an ordinary lesson, the students were able to have an experience that resulted in empowerment to a limited extent. Furthermore, the fact that emotions accounted for 60% of learning in the four areas in which learning was expected indicates that the stude ts developed greater depth of feeling and that the lectures were also very effective in fostering the way students view people with psychiatric disorders. Although skill was not frequently mentioned, it is expected that students will learn more about this in later clinical psychiatric nursing theory lectures and in clinical practice. |
