The application and effectiveness of the nursing clinical reasoning and decision-making model in Adult Nursing curriculum WANG Huiying, LIU Mingxuan, WU Fangqin, ZHAO Yuhan, MIAO Yiqun, GUO Rong-rong, LUO Yuan, WU Ying 2026, 23 (5):  517-523.  doi: 10.3761/j.issn.1672-9234.2026.05.001 Abstract ( 231 )   HTML ( 1 )   PDF (1831KB) ( 2 )   Save Figures and Tables | References | Related Articles | Metrics To enhance students’ clinical reasoning and decision-making skills,our research team previously developed a clinical nursing reasoning and decision-making model—the GUIDANCE model. This model comprises eight distinct stages:gather cues,use cues to hypothesize,investigate further,diagnose the problems,analyze and determine the nature of the problems,nursing care planning,carry out interventions,and evaluate outcomes. In this study,the model was integrated into the teaching practice of the Adult Nursing curriculum. By systematically embedding the model into instructional components such as classroom lectures,problem-based learning,scenario simulations,virtual simulations,and clinical clerkships,we guided students to perform information gathering,problem analysis,and nursing decision-making in accordance with structured steps. Comprehensive analysis of students’ classroom performance,formative assessments,and teaching feedback over long-term practice indicates that the GUIDANCE model effectively enhances the systematicity and organization of students’ clinical reasoning and decision-making. It facilitates a transition from superficial,fragmented judgments to systematic,structured decision-making,thus providing practical experience and a reference for the cultivating of clinical reasoning and decision-making skills in nursing curricula.

Methods A convenient sampling method was adopted. In December 2023,1 081 graduating students of the 2024 cohort majoring in full-time higher vocational nursing from 10 public and private colleges in Shanghai were selected as study participants. A self-developed questionnaire was used for the survey,and standardized telephone follow-up was conducted in April 2025. Results Among the 1 081 quasi-graduates,766(70.86%) were willing to engage in nursing work,247(22.85%) had moderate willingness,and 68(6.29%) were unwilling to work in nursing;817(75.58%) preferred tertiary hospitals as their first job choice,and 907(83.90%) preferred to work in Shanghai. Among the 373 valid follow-up data,the employment rates of graduates with high,moderate and low willingness to work in nursing were 72.28%(193/267),72.29%(60/83) and 52.17%(12/23),respectively. The proportions of those engaged in non-nursing work in the three groups were 8.29%(16/193),10.00%(6/60) and 41.67%(5/12),respectively. Passive further education accounted for 69.84%(44/63) of all graduates pursuing further education. Among unemployed graduates,40.91%(18/44) were waiting for recruitment opportunities in civil service or public institutions. Conclusion Higher vocational nursing graduates are faced with problems such as differentiated professional identity,singular employment preference,and institutional-oriented inertia in career decision-making,which lead to employment mismatch and career development bottlenecks. It is suggested to strengthen professional identity education in nursing education,establish a flexible diversion mechanism,broaden students’ employment horizons,construct an experiential employment guidance mechanism,and implement targeted measures and home-school collaboration at the graduation stage,so as to improve students’ clarity of career positioning and rationality in employment decision-making.

Teaching innovation and practice of Nursing Pedagogy course under the guidance of industry demand WANG Yanni 2026, 23 (5):  554-559.  doi: 10.3761/j.issn.1672-9234.2026.05.007 Abstract ( 72 )   HTML ( 0 )   PDF (941KB) ( 1 )   Save Figures and Tables | References | Related Articles | Metrics Nursing pedagogy is an interdisciplinary subject that deeply integrates nursing and education. The Nursing Pedagogy course is a distinctive course in the nursing curriculum system that systematically cultivates students’ teaching competencies. The high-quality development of the nursing industry demands teaching competencies from clinical nursing educators;however,the current teaching abilities,teaching professionalism,and innovative teaching awareness of nursing professionals are difficult to match the core requirements of industry positions. Guided by industry needs,the curriculum team adopts a reverse instructional design approach to reconstruct the Nursing Pedagogy course,following a closed-loop logic framework of “need identification-goal establishment-content reconstruction-space creation-strategy implementation-effect evaluation”. Closely aligned with the teaching competency requirements of clinical teaching positions in the nursing industry,the course formulates three-dimensional teaching objectives covering cognitive,skill,and affective domains. It selects teaching content that aligns with achieving these objectives,designs exclusive teaching spaces for different content modules,matches diverse classroom teaching strategies based on teaching spaces,and ultimately verifies the alignment between teaching effectiveness and industry needs through comprehensive evaluation. After two rounds of teaching practice,this course effectively enhanced students’ basic theoretical knowledge of nursing pedagogy and preliminary teaching practice abilities,nurtured their teaching sentiments,inspired their innovative teaching awareness,and achieved the curriculum education goal mandated by the industry.

Methods Using a convenience sampling method,388 undergraduate nursing students were surveyed with the Professional Adaptation Scale,which measures professional commitment,learning goals,learning behaviors,self-efficacy,and professional identity. Latent Profile Analysis(LPA) was employed to identify adaptive subgroups,and differences in academic achievement,indexed by Grade Point Average(GPA),among these profiles were analyzed. Results Four latent profiles were identified:a Low-Adaptation group(28.4%),a Moderate-Adaptation group(35.6%),a High-Adaptation group(18.8%),and a High Self-Efficacy-Low Goal-Behavior group(17.2%). Regression analysis revealed that,compared to the Low-Adaptation group,the High-Adaptation group had significantly higher academic achievement(β=0.711,P<0.001). Notably,the High Self-Efficacy-Low Goal-Behavior group exhibited significantly lower academic achievement than the Low-Adaptation group(β=-0.350,P=0.007). Conclusion Professional adaptation among nursing undergraduates presents both balanced and imbalanced patterns,and its relationship with academic achievement is non-linear. This study identifies a critical at-risk subgroup,the High Self-Efficacy-Low Goal-Behavior group,whose poor academic performance is linked to a disconnect between confidence and engagement. These findings highlight the need for educators to accurately identify student characteristics and implement tailored,precise interventions.

Analysis of the impact path of self-efficacy on artificial intelligence readiness among nursing interns LIN Danni, HUA Jing, XU Shuangyan 2026, 23 (5):  594-600.  doi: 10.3761/j.issn.1672-9234.2026.05.013 Abstract ( 71 )   HTML ( 0 )   PDF (1029KB) ( 1 )   Save Figures and Tables | References | Related Articles | Metrics Objective To explore the impact path of self-efficacy on artificial intelligence(AI) readiness among nursing interns,and to analyze the mediating role of self-directed learning ability and the moderating role of AI attitude in the direct path from self-efficacy to AI readiness. Methods In October 2025,a convenience sampling method was used to select nursing interns from a tertiary A-grade hospital in Hangzhou as the participants. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire,General Self-Efficacy Scale,Self-directed Learning Ability Scale,and an AI Readiness Scale for Medical Students. Results A total of 458 nursing interns were included in the study. Their general self-efficacy scores were(29.85±5.45),self-directed learning ability scores were (106.42±15.21),medical student AI readiness scores were(80.02±13.90),and AI attitude scores were(4.29±0.60). All four variables showed significant positive correlations between each other(P<0.05). Self-directed learning ability played a partial mediating role between self-efficacy and AI readiness,accounting for 54.63% of the total effect. AI attitude had a negative moderating effect on the path from self-efficacy to AI readiness(β=-0.104,P=0.025). Conclusion Self-efficacy not only directly influences the AI readiness of nursing interns but also indirectly affects it through self-directed learning ability. AI attitude plays a negative moderating role in the process by which self-efficacy directly influences nursing interns’ AI readiness. In nursing education practice,attention should be paid to enhancing self-efficacy improvement,cultivating their self-learning ability cultivation,and providing targeted guidance on their AI attitude,in order to systematically enhance their future professional adaptability in the smart medical environment.
