Impact of a Social Justice Course in Graduate Nursing Education
Abstract
Background: Social justice and health equity are foundational concepts to the graduate-prepared nurse's role. However, the integration of these concepts into graduate nursing education has been unclear. Purpose: This study examined the impact of a newly created social justice course in a graduate nursing program. Methods: The impact of the Health Equity and Social Justice course on students' values and attitudes toward social justice was investigated through analysis of quantitative and qualitative data generated in the course. Results: Data were collected from 41 graduate nursing students. Findings demonstrated that students who completed the course had an increased endorsement of social justice values, goals, and behaviors. Students universally found the course to be transformational. Conclusions: A social justice course in graduate education can be transformational in shaping students' values and attitudes toward health equity and social justice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
