Summary

The aim of this randomised controlled study was to examine the effect of peer counselling on first-year nursing students' perceptions of nursing image in orientation processes.The H0 hypothesis of the study is that there is no statistical difference between the scores of the image scale towards nursing between the experimental and control groups after the peer-assisted orientation process.

Detailed description

In the study, pre-test data will be collected from the first year students enrolled in the school by using the 'Sociodemographic Data Form' and the 'Image Scale for Nursing Profession'. According to the pre-test results, 108 first-year nursing students who scored 143 points or less from the Image Scale for Nursing Profession will be determined by an independent statistical expert. These students will then be assigned to the experimental (n=54) and control (n=54) groups by simple randomisation method. The students in the intervention group will be randomly grouped with 27 senior nursing students who voluntarily agree to participate in the project to provide peer counseling, and one senior student will counsel 2 first-year students. A 7-week counseling process of 1 hour per week will be applied to 54 students in the intervention group. The research will be finalised by applying the post-test to the control and intervention groups immediately after the intervention.
