Intents and perceptions of graduating BSN students toward the nurse practitioner role.

This descriptive study was an investigation of the intentions of 65 senior baccalaureate nursing students to become nurse practitioners (NPs). Students were given a Nurse Practitioner Inventory, which collected information on nine categories related to factors influencing specialization. The data show that a majority of nursing students do not have specific plans to become NPs, although most intend to further their education. The results suggest that this is in part related to a lack of exposure to and familiarity with the NP role.

Effects of divorce on the grandparent-grandchild relationship.

Although the detrimental effects of divorce on the immediate family have been studied extensively, few researchers have focused on how extended family members such as grandparents respond. This ex post facto study was a preliminary investigation of how 47 grandparents felt about their relationship with grandchildren whose parents had divorced. Chi-square analysis of study data revealed that these grandparents perceived a significant decline in the quality of their relationship with grandchildren. The quality of these grandparent-grandchild relationships was influenced by custodial arrangements but not geographic distance. Implications for pediatric nursing are discussed.

Evaluating abstracts: preparing a research conference.

Refusal to recognize the impossibility of designing a fair scholarly screening system for selecting papers from abstracts results in the use of inappropriate criteria and checklists. Since no checklist can be used universally to identify the rigorous and significant research contributions from abstracts, we suggest that a more flexible and sensible method of screening presentations is to select the maximum number based on the time and space available for presentations, the program objectives, and content needs.
