摘要

Background

Violence management training is necessary for nursing students who are in the most contact with the patient and his/her companion. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of implementing the workplace violence management training program (WVMTP) on knowledge, attitude, and adaptation to patient violence among undergraduate nursing students.

Methods

This semi-experimental study was conducted on 42 nursing students. Sampling was performed using the convenience sampling method and the samples were randomly assigned to the intervention (IG) and control groups (CG). The data collection tools included the Knowledge and Attitude toward Patient Violence Questionnaire, and the Self-Confidence in Adaptation to Patient Violence Questionnaire. The IG received training in the form of question/answer, lecture, and role-play, using slides and showing movies for 6 hours.

Results

No statistically significant difference was found in the mean knowledge score of students in the IG and CG two weeks after the intervention. The Wilcoxon test results indicated no statistically significant difference in comparing the mean self-confidence score in adaptation to patient violence in the IG and CG two weeks after the intervention, but a statistically significant difference was observed in the IG before and after the training (p = 0.40).

Conclusion

Although the WVMTP for nursing students was able to increase student knowledge, attitude, and self-confidence in the short term, considering the instability of this learning within the next two weeks and the importance of violence management skills, this skill is recommended to be included in the curriculum and educational credits with continuous training.
