Utilizing Dweck's growth mindset model, the study explored the benefits of mindset training within nursing education. Objective: To determine the impact of an online mindset training intervention on first-semester prelicensure nursing students' mindset beliefs and learning and studying strategies. Methods: This study employed a randomized longitudinal design, conducted entirely online. Sixty-eight participants completed all phases of the study. Data were collected using the Williams Inventory of Learning Strategies tool before and after participants viewed an online training. Results: Findings indicate that online mindset training positively influenced student learning, reducing fear of failure and increasing willingness to remediate. Conclusion: These results highlight the promising impact of an online learning approach in fostering a growth mindset among nursing students; suggesting the potential for integrating mindset training into the nursing curriculum to enhance student success, with recommendations for further research in larger-scale studies.
RESUMO
Peer review is an important part of the scientific process, but traditional peer review at journals is coming under increased scrutiny for its inefficiency and lack of transparency. As preprints become more widely used and accepted, they raise the possibility of rethinking the peer-review process. Preprints are enabling new forms of peer review that have the potential to be more thorough, inclusive, and collegial than traditional journal peer review, and to thus fundamentally shift the culture of peer review toward constructive collaboration. In this Consensus View, we make a call to action to stakeholders in the community to accelerate the growing momentum of preprint sharing and provide recommendations to empower researchers to provide open and constructive peer review for preprints.
