Thesis (Ph.D.)--Saint Louis University, 1992.

Nursing educators should have a clear idea of what influences students to select nursing as a career and especially what factors influence the choice of a particular educational program. If these factors are known, nursing recruiters can use more effective approaches to promote the positive aspects of their programs and make appropriate changes in ineffective promotional activities.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Nursing educators should have a clear idea of what influences students to select nursing as a career and especially what factors influence the choice of a particular educational program. If these factors are known, nursing recruiters can use more effective approaches to promote the positive aspects of their programs and make appropriate changes in ineffective promotional activities.
520 $a The purpose of this descriptive study was to discover what factors motivated current students to choose a professional nursing career. This was accomplished by surveying a national sample of beginning nursing students enrolled in baccalaureate nursing programs. The random sample included 1906 students from 131 baccalaureate programs in 45 states, the District of Columbia and three U.S. territories. Marketing Theory was the basis of the research. A self-administered paper and pencil questionnaire was the instrument used for data collection.
520 $a There were seven research questions, with information divided into four major areas: demographics of the sample, selection of nursing as a career, image of nursing, and selection of a baccalaureate nursing education. Frequencies and percentages were calculated for all variables and chi-square tests were applied to correlate responses to all items by (1) gender and (2) age groups.
520 $a Several of the more relevant results were as follows: (1) the percentage of male students in the study sample was nearly twice the published percentage of males in nursing; (2) nursing students are academically strong students based on high school class ranking and high school and college average grades; (3) caring, or wanting to help people, was still the major reason students selected a nursing career; (4) younger students and females made the decision for a nursing career before high school graduation; males and older students claim the decision was a mature choice; (5) high school counselors were non-factors in the nursing decision; and (6) television and motion picture portrayals of nurses were considered the most negative images of nursing, except for China Beach and M*A*S*H.
