| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study aim was to explore health belief content, origin, socio-cultural and other influencing factors held by clinical nurses and academics, and its impact on their nursing practice and education using Q methodology interview and questionnaire. Data was collected from 60 nurses in China, Japan, Thailand and Australia. In Korea only 31 participants were recruited. Findings suggest that nurses may have developed their health beliefs at an early age through education or observation by schools, family or community. When exposed to contradictory information including that derived from evidence-based sources, they may still practice accordingly to these unconscious and unexamined beliefs which are passed onto their patients and students. The findings can inform clinical teaching and clinical practice and assist nurses to critically distinguish between beneficial and potentially harmful health beliefs and practices using reflective practice and critical thinking.
