A COMPARISON OF PROFESSIONAL NURSING VALUES SCORES OF ACCELERATED AND FOUR-YEAR BACCALAUREATE NURSING STUDENTS
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if differences exist in professional\nnursing values scores of students in accelerated and four-year baccalaureate nursing programs. Participants in this study were nursing students (N=173) from one Canadian university enrolled in the penultimate semester of an eighteen month accelerated baccalaureate program and a traditional four-year program. Ware’s emerging theory Building on a Foundation ofKnowledge by ‘Taking it All In ’was the theoretical framework for this study. In the present study, the effect of program length on students’ professional nursing values scores was examined. Program length addresses the passage oftime, one aspect of Ware’s theory. Participants completed the 26-item Revised Nursing Professional Values Scale (Weis & Schank, 2000), which addresses five aspects of professional nursing values formation. Relationships among total scores and demographic variables were also examined. Overall, there were no significant differences in total scores between groups. Although accelerated students had higher total scores on all five subscales, only the difference between groups on one subscale, activism, was statically significant. Results of this study lend support for the ongoing creation and development of accelerated baccalaureate nursing programs as an effective form of nursing education. Further research about Ware’s theory and professional nursing values formation is warranted.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
