Abstract

To prepare future nurses in their providing of holistic care to patients, creative drama activities involving hands-on learning and experiential exercises are important in developing requisite skills. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of education based on creative drama among nursing students, specifically in relation to facilitating discussions as to the expression of sexuality—an important aspect of patient care. A qualitative descriptive research design was employed in this study, therein utilizing semi-structured interviews as the data collection method. The dataset is comprised of field notes from interviews conducted with 16 students. Thematic analysis was employed to analyze the data and MAXQDA analysis software was used for data organization purposes. Five themes and twenty-one codes were identified. The themes which emerged from the data are; (1) the difficulties faced in questioning expressions of sexuality, (2) the factors which affect sexual care, (3) the feelings experienced by student nurses when taking patient histories, (4) the inclusion of creative drama in nursing education and (5) the perceptions held among student nurses towards the creative drama method. The 21 codes which emerged included cultural and social structures, the perception of sexuality as a private matter, gender discrimination, societal knowledge gaps, age-related concerns, patient hesitation, personal comfort when discussing sexuality, the encountering of negative reactions from patients, the ability to communicate comfortably, the comprehensive fulfilment of the caregiving role and the students' feelings of shame or boredom. Providing education as to the expression of sexuality, accompanied by creative drama activities, shall enable students to address and explore this challenging area and to provide holistic care.

利用创意戏剧促进护理专业学生对性表达的质疑:定性研究
为了培养未来的护士为病人提供整体护理,涉及实践学习和体验练习的创意戏剧活动对于培养必要的技能非常重要。本研究旨在确定在护理专业学生中开展基于创意戏剧的教育的有效性,特别是在促进有关性表达的讨论方面--性表达是病人护理的一个重要方面。本研究采用了定性描述研究设计,其中使用了半结构化访谈作为数据收集方法。数据集由对 16 名学生的访谈记录组成。研究采用主题分析法对数据进行分析,并使用 MAXQDA 分析软件对数据进行整理。共确定了五个主题和 21 个代码。从数据中得出的主题包括:(1)在质疑性表达时面临的困难;(2)影响性护理的因素;(3)护士学生在记录患者病史时的感受;(4)将创意戏剧纳入护理教育;(5)护士学生对创意戏剧方法的看法。这 21 个代码包括文化和社会结构、将性视为隐私、性别歧视、社会知识差距、与年龄相关的担忧、病人犹豫不决、讨论性问题时的个人舒适度、遇到病人的负面反应、舒适沟通的能力、全面履行护理角色以及学生的羞耻感或厌烦感。提供有关性表达的教育,并辅以创造性的戏剧活动,将使学生能够应对和探索这一具有挑战性的领域,并提供全面的护理。
