The concept of health among Japanese nursing students: comparisons between 1st-year and 4th-year students among nursing and non-nursing undergraduates
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
This study aimed to compare the concept of health between nursing and non-nursing students. We used a questionnaire method that included selection problems and healthy opinion poll for 1st- and 4th-year nursing and non-nursing students. There was a tendency for 4th-year nursing students to perceive health from three aspects, but not to perceive health optimistically compared with other groups, as they were anxious about their lifestyle and showed high levels of concern. Since 4th-year nursing students had many opportunities to experience both health and illness during training, they considered their own health deeply and simultaneously were concerned about a healthy lifestyle, and desired information about health. Deepening their own concept of health in connection with their actual life is required for people who wish to enter the nursing profession. Keywords: concept of health, nursing school student.
