Faculty adoption of an undergraduate nursing curricular change| A correlational study

Rommelfaenger, Marijo A. 26 April 2016 (has links)
<p> Challenges in the implementation process of a new undergraduate nursing curriculum are multifactorial. Utilizing constructs of Hall&rsquo;s (2013) Concerns Based Adoption Model (CBAM), and Oreg&rsquo;s (2003, 2006) Resistance to Change Scale, the study examined faculty members&rsquo; personal concerns and resistance to change, regarding implementation of a new curriculum. The study is quantitative research, using correlational statistical analysis and use of descriptive statistics. Senge&rsquo;s Leadership Theory and Wegner&rsquo;s Community of Practice Theory formed the theoretical framework for the study. The study included participation from 11 BSN nursing program faculty from several universities in the United States that adopted a new conceptual-based nursing curriculum. Results of statistical testing showed no relationship between faculty profile scores for adoption along a change continuum and the study variables as objective measures. However, recommendations for follow-up research include qualitative research and further analysis of study demographic data not originally used in the study.</p>
