There was, however, a <i>negative</i> association for the latter.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Implications for Practice</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The results give a better understanding of what kind of interactions that affect patients' perceived level of participation.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Relevance Statement</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Patient participant is a prioritised area for development in forensic psychiatry. The study contributes to a better understanding of what types of interactions that affect the perceived level of participation, while at the same time, it shows important similarities and differences between patient and staff perspectives.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50076,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing","volume":"32 2","pages":"263-275"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jpm.13105","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142254054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
