Internet-based acceptance and commitment therapy (iACT) improves professional psychological help-seeking attitudes: A randomized controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: Professional psychological help-seeking attitudes are crucial for addressing mental health challenges, yet the mechanisms underlying their improvement through internet-based interventions remain poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: This randomized controlled trial aimed to (1) evaluate the efficacy of Internet-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (iACT) in enhancing professional help-seeking attitudes, and (2) elucidate the longitudinal mediating roles of psychological rigidity and self-stigma. METHODS: A total of 91 male participants (Mean Age = 21.09) were randomly assigned to either a 12-day iACT intervention group (n = 46) using a self-developed mobile application or a waitlist control group (n = 45). Psychological flexibility, rigidity, self-stigma, and help-seeking attitudes were measured at four time points: baseline, mid-intervention (Day 6), post-intervention (Day 12), and 1-month follow-up. Data were analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA and latent growth modeling. RESULTS: Intention-to-treat analysis revealed the iACT group showed greater improvements in help-seeking attitudes than controls (F (3,87) = 5.95, p < 0.001), with medium-to-large between-group effects at post-test for reducing psychological rigidity (d = -0.77, 95% CI [-1.19, -0.34]) and self-stigma (d = -0.88, 95% CI [-1.31, -0.45]). Latent growth modeling revealed a sequential mediation effect: the iACT intervention reduced psychological rigidity (β = -0.53, SE = 0.12), which in turn reduced self-stigma (β = 0.61, SE = 0.09) and improved help-seeking attitudes (β = 0.47, SE = 0.08). CONCLUSION: This study provides the first evidence that a self-guided iACT mobile intervention can effectively enhance professional help-seeking attitudes by reducing psychological rigidity, which in turn alleviates self-stigma. The developed app offers a scalable solution to overcoming stigma-related barriers to mental health care.

Nursing students' perspective of dignity: A systematic review.

AIM: This review synthesizes research on nursing students' perceptions of dignity shaped by education and clinical experiences. BACKGROUND: Respect for human dignity is central to nursing ethics. While dignity is well studied in patient care, less focus has been given to how nursing students perceive and experience dignity during their education. DESIGN: A systematic review of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods studies. METHODS: A comprehensive search was conducted across the Medline, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for English-language studies published from 2000 to 2025. Quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist and the Mixed Methods Appraisal. Tool. Data were synthesized thematically. Reporting followed PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS: A total of 24 articles were included. Students viewed patient dignity as linked to respect, privacy, and autonomy. Although students had solid theoretical knowledge, they encountered institutional and professional barriers in delivering dignified care. Supportive environments and participation in decision-making enhanced their sense of dignity. Finally, educational strategies such as role-playing, simulations, and empathy exercises enhanced emotional and psychosocial awareness. CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate that dignity is crucial in shaping nursing students' professional identity and ethical awareness throughout their education. Reinforcing ethical values and dignity in nursing education is essential for high-quality care.

Factors associated with successful integration of pharmacists into residential aged care teams: A qualitative study.

BACKGROUND: Australia's Aged Care Onsite Pharmacist program aims to support quality use of medicines in residential aged care homes. This is a novel role introduced into existing teams in a complex environment. Factors associated with successful integration since implementation are currently unknown. AIM: This study aims to explore the perspectives of pharmacists and other stakeholders within aged care homes regarding successful integration of the novel aged care pharmacist service into healthcare teams. METHODS: A qualitative approach, using interpretive descriptive methodology, was used to explore perspectives. Semi-structured focus groups and interviews with pharmacists, nursing and care staff, allied health professionals, general practitioners, residents, and family members were undertaken. Data were collected via Zoom™, audio- and video-recorded, and transcribed verbatim. Two researchers undertook inductive thematic analysis to identify key themes. RESULTS: 30 participants across focus groups, focus-group interviews, interviews, and member-checking processes contributed. An overarching theme of proactivity and showing a genuine interest in others underpinned three key themes. Theme 1: Pharmacists needed to be seen, through physical presence and availability, as well as developing a distinct identity. Theme 2: Pharmacists needed to build trust, through collaboration in real time and demonstrating value. Theme 3: Pharmacists needed to develop an understanding of the aged care home environment, including social and contextual norms, as well as procedures, routines and roles. DISCUSSION: This research complements existing understandings of interprofessional collaboration and teamwork amongst healthcare professionals. Themes were interlinked; we used a sensitising framework, social cognitive theory, to present and explain the findings and interactions that can support pharmacist integration into existing teams. Aged care services should structure onboarding to prioritise early visibility, clarify roles and organisational needs, and foster in-person collaboration. Pharmacists should demonstrate proactivity and an authentic interest in all staff, residents and families.

Exploring determinants of vaccine hesitancy among healthcare professionals: a systematic literature review.

INTRODUCTION: This systematic review aims to assess determinants of vaccine hesitancy (VH) among healthcare professionals, to identify knowledge gaps and inform targeted training programs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A systematic search of PubMed and Scopus was conducted in February 2024. PRISMA criteria were applied, and methodological quality was assessed using a cross-sectional study evaluation tool. Studies addressing HCWs' VH determinants, including knowledge, attitudes, communication, and organizational factors, were included. RESULTS: Out of 1394 records, 221 articles were included. Reported prevalence of VH among HCWs varied across studies, reflecting differences in professional roles, settings, and vaccines studied. Key determinants included gaps in knowledge, personal beliefs, organizational barriers, and communication skills. The review highlights the importance of evidence-based information, continuing education, and effective communication in addressing VH among HCWs. CONCLUSIONS: Educational and organizational interventions are essential to improve HCWs' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding vaccination. Strengthening vaccine education, fostering effective communication, and addressing organizational challenges can reduce hesitancy and support HCWs in promoting vaccination among patients. Future initiatives should consider the diversity of educational settings, professional roles, and training requirements across healthcare systems.
