Elizabeth Holloway, PhD and Mitch Kusy, PhD
Recent national research studies in healthcare demonstrate that lack of civility and respect can significantly impact patient care, safety, and mortality, as well as team productivity and performance. This white paper offers ways for current and future nurses to take back their power as leaders and create a culture of respectful civil engagement.
Designing effective NCLEX preparation to manage test-taking anxiety
Dr. Patricia O’Hara, RN, PhD
Administered by the NCSBN (National Council of State Boards of Nursing), the NCLEX exam determines whether a candidate is sufficiently prepared to safely practice entry-level nursing. That’s why one of the most important responsibilities of nursing school faculty everywhere is getting their students ready—intellectually and emotionally—to tackle the exam with confidence and ready for success. But many educators struggle with just how to do that.
Comparing IRT difficulty and NCLEX-RN 10,000 question difficulty ratings for the top 100 items and 2000 student responses
Dr. Julia Phelan
In order to determine the relationship between question difficulty level in the NCLEX-RN 10,000 and IRT analysis difficulty we calculated correlations between the IRT-determined difficulties and the question difficulties previously determined by the NCLEX-RN 10,000. This analysis used the top 100 NCLEX-10,000 items and 2,000 students’ worth of data.
