Iran Journal of Nursing IJN 2008-5931 2008-5931 10.52547/ijn 2015 27 92 The Role of Gender in Research Self-efficacy of Nursing Students E Aryani A Narimani K Kamangar A Omidvar   Abstract   Background & Aim: Research in the field of health is essential for the development of health care and plays a central role in medical sciences. Accordingly this study was undertaken to determine research self-efficacy of female and male nursing students in higher education.   Material & Methods: It was a descriptive, cross sectional study. The research population was nursing students of higher education in Ardabil University of Medical Sciences in academic year of 2013-2014. Simple random sampling was used to recruit the students. Data was collected by Phillips & Russell Research Self Efficacy (RSE) questionnaire and analyzed by Independent- sample t -test and Two- way ANOVA using SPSS-PC (v.20).   Results: The results showed that the male and female students were situated upper than the standard average in terms of self-efficacy of writing skills, practical research skills, quantitative and computer skills, research design skills and total research self- efficacy. There was no significant difference between male and female students in terms of self-efficacy of design skills, self-efficacy of practical research skills, self-efficacy of quantitative and computer skills, self-efficacy of writing skills, and total research self-efficacy ( p >0.05). No significant relationship was found between the interaction of gender and interest in research, and research self-efficacy (F =1/21, P=0/27). However, the singular role of interest in research and research self-efficacy was significant (F =7/63, P=0/006). Conclusions: Future research is recommended to be undertaken to study the relationship between research self-efficacy and factors such as educational environment, scientific motivation and research products.

The present study aimed to determine the incidence of vascular complications and its related factors after angiography.   Material & Methods: This cross-sectional study was done on 400 patients undergoing coronary angiography using consecutive sampling method in Rasht Heshmat Hospital. Data was collected through observation and recording the information (including demographic information, clinical and technical factors and a checklist to assess the vascular complications of the removal site of the sheet) and analyzed by descriptive T-test, Chi-Square and Logistic Regression using SPSS-PC (v. 20).   Results: The majority of the sample were male (59/2%) (59/21 ± 11/9). A total of 24% of patients developed vascular complications and ecchymosis had the highest incidence (71/4%). Multivariate Regression analysisindicated that high blood pressure history (p=0.005), systolic blood pressure before removal of the sheet (p=0/023), anticoagulative drugs (p=0/027), sheet size (p<0/001), the number of attempts to venipuncture (p<0/001) and duration of angiography (p<0/001) predictthe development of vascular complications. Conclusion: With knowledge of thepredictive factors of vascular complications, nurses would be able to prevent complications, prolonged hospitalization and hospital costs.

This study seeks to determine the factors associated with elderly happiness in Ilam city.   Material & Methods: It was a descriptive cross- sectional study with predictive- correlational design. The sample consisted of 370 elderlies of Ilam city who were recruited by systematic random sampling. Data was collected in 2014 by a three part questionnaire including (1) personal characteristics sheet (2) a researcher made questionnaire to measure aggression, adaptation strategies, social capital, religious orientation, relative deprivation and alienation variables (3) and Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (29 items version) and was analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient, ANOVA and multiple regression using SPSS- PC (v.18).   Results: The findings revealed that the respondents’ happiness was moderate (92 / 53). A significant direct correlation was found between social capital (r=0 / 457), income (r=0 / 344), and adaptation strategies (r=0 / 275) and happiness (p<0/005). There were also a significant indirect relationship between alienation (r=-0 / 484), aggression (r= -0/399), relative deprivation (r=-0 / 325), and happiness (p<0 / 005). No significant relationship was found between religious orientation and happiness. Stepwise regression analysis showed that the variables of income, social capital and aggression have explained almost 49 percent (r 2 =0 / 49) of happiness variations (P < 0/00). Conclusion: Regarding the findings and considering the growing population of elderlies in this city it is suggested that appropriate approaches be applied to strengthening the positive factors and adjusting the negative factors related to the feelings of happiness in this population.

Iran Journal of Nursing IJN 2008-5931 2008-5931 10.52547/ijn 2015 27 92 Factors Affecting the Process of Role Transition from Nursing Student to Clinical Nurse: a Grounded Theory Study F Rafii M Sajadi Hezaveh N Seyedfatemi M Rezaei   Abstract   Background & Aim: Role transition from nursing student to clinical nurse is a sensitive stage in the nurses’ professional life. Many factors affect role transition and could change its outcome. The present study was designed with the aim of exploring the factors affecting the process of transition from nursing student to clinical nurse using the experiences of both novice and experienced nurses.   Material & Methods: This study was conducted by grounded theory approach in educational hospitals affiliated to Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Data was generated by in-depth, semi-structured interviews. A total of 21 participants were recruited by purposeful and theoretical sampling. They included 17 new graduate nurses, two experienced nurses and two head nurses. According to grounded theory, data collection and analysis was performed simultaneously using constant comparative method.   Results: the study revealed that many factors affect the process of role transition from nursing student to clinical nurse. These factors were classified as micro and macro levels. Micro-level factors included pedagogic-educational support, characteristics related to head nurse and colleagues, newly graduate nurses’ characteristics, and work place atmosphere. The macro-level factors included the perspective of society to nursing, physicians’ rulership governing the medical centers, and nurses’ employment regulations.   Conclusion: The findings of this study could create a new insight into thinking about factors effecting newly graduated nursing student’ role transition on the commencement of their work and also create a basis for professional decisions. Recognition of these factors could help in planning and direction of the process towards positive outcomes. The findings could also be considered as a guide for managers, educational instructions, authorities and all the beneficiaries in nursing, in order to facilitate this process for newly graduated nurses.

Depression increases the risk of metabolic syndrome in the general population. The aim of this study was determining the association between depression and the metabolic syndrome in elderlies with cardiovascular disease.   Material & Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 200 elderlies with cardiovascular disease hospitalized in Saqqez's Imam Khomeini's hospital in 2013 with convenience sampling. To evaluate depression, Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) and to assess metabolic syndrome, ATP3 index were used. Data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, independent T test and Chi square using PASW. The significant level for all the tests was 0.05.   Results: The results showed that 61 percent of the patients have experienced the symptoms of depression and 46 percent of them had metabolic syndrome. The chance for metabolic syndrome in women was 2/4 times more than men (95% CI:1/3-4/2, OR=2/4, p=0/003). There was no significant relationship between metabolic syndrome and depression (p=0/198). Among the components of metabolic syndrome only systolic blood pressure was associated with depression (P=0/002), so that the chance for high systolic blood pressure in depressed elderlies was 2.5 time more than those without depression (95% CI: 1/4-4/5, OR=2/5, P=0/003).   Conclusion: Given the high frequency of depression and metabolic syndrome in elderlies with cardiovascular disease, more attention should be paid on the simultaneous occurrence of these two problems.
