Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to adapt and validate a questionnaire assessing factors influencing smoking cessation education among health professions students in Spain and England.
- Researchers analyzed data from 511 Spanish and 186 English students, validating the questionnaire through expert review, pilot testing, and psychometric evaluation.
- The findings showed a strong factor structure with four subscales reflecting knowledge, attitudes, organizational support, and resources, with high reliability ratings (Cronbach's alpha of .83 for Spanish and .88 for English versions).
Aims: To gain new insights into the experiences of nurses who smoke and to understand the impact of those experiences on their delivery of smoking cessation interventions.
Design: A meta-ethnographic synthesis.
