PSYCHOLOGY

Background Information

Clark and Springer (2007) conducted a qualitative study to examine the perceptions of faculty and students in a nursing program on incivility. Their key questions were:

How do nursing students and nurse faculty members contribute to incivility in nursing education?

What are some of the causes of incivility in nursing education?

What remedies might be effective in preventing or reducing incivility?

They gathered responses from online surveys with open-ended questions from 36 nurse faculty and 168 nursing students. Each of the researchers reviewed all comments and organized them by themes. They noted four major themes of responses:

Faculty perceptions of in-class disruption and incivility by students

Faculty perceptions of out-of-class disruption and incivility by students

Student perceptions of uncivil behaviors by faculty

Faculty and student perceptions of possible causes of incivility in nursing education

A total of eight sub-themes were identified among the faculty comments on types of in-class disruptions. Those subthemes were:

Disrupting others by talking in class

Making negative remarks/disrespectful comments toward faculty
