Mixed-method study reports high levels of clinical incivility and stress in nursing students, suggesting urgent action is needed.
Key Points
Clinical incivility significantly contributes to stress levels in nursing students, with 79.9% reporting experiences of incivility.
Statistical analysis revealed a correlation between clinical incivility (r = .317, p < .001) and stress, affecting satisfaction with clinical practice.
Using a mixed-method design, we gathered quantitative survey data alongside qualitative focus group insights from nursing students.
Collaboration between nursing schools and clinical agencies is vital for establishing policies to address and minimize clinical incivility.
