Background: Incivility toward nursing students has been identified as a contributor to negative experiences in clinical education and may cause a weakened learning environment, anxiety, depression and workplace violence. However, few data with regard to uncivilized behavior toward nursing students in the operating room are available. The operation room is a special place where the tempo is fast and the risk is high. Nursing students may have to face pressure from different people, such as anesthesiologists, surgeons, clinical instructors, and staff nurses.
Objectives: To explore uncivilized behavior toward nursing students in the operating room and to discuss the source of uncivilized behavior and the attitude of clinical instructors when it occurs.
Method: A total of 215 nursing students in the operating room of the Second XiangYa Hospital from January to December 2018 were investigated. The uncivilized behavior in clinical nursing education tool and self-designed questionnaire were used.
Results: The incivility mean score was (4.6 ± 6.7). In all, 122 (56.7%) participants had experienced various degrees of uncivilized behavior in the operating room. There were significant differences in incivility toward students according to degree of education and age. The most frequent uncivilized behavior toward students was raising of the voice when speaking to students (41.9%), followed by inappropriate tone (36.7%), being embarrassed in front of others (36.3%), and snide remarks (34.4%). Surgeons (59%) were considered as the most important source of uncivil behaviors, followed by staff nurses (46.7%). When students experienced uncivilized behavior, 61.5% clinical instructors defended and comforted them, 23% comforted them privately, 13.1% ignored them, and 2.5% even criticized them together with the uncivil behavior actor.
Conclusion: Nursing managers and instructors should pay more attention to the incivility toward students and take actions to foster a healthy, civilized and respectful work environment in the operating room for students.

Healthcare staff's racialized talk: The perpetuation of racism in healthcare.

Department of Sociology, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden; Skaraborg Institute for Research and Development, Skövde, Sweden.
Research points to the existence of racial bias and beliefs among healthcare staff but does not explicate accounts of racialization in healthcare and the day-to-day utterances that have racializing effects excluding minoritized users' right to care. This study understands racism as structural and embedded in societies and institutions, including healthcare, as well as in interactions and talk. Through excavating accounts of healthcare staff's talk that devalues minoritized users, this study posits talk as reflective and constitutive of the dominant structure of racism within which it is situated.

Humans seldom consider themselves as animals, and that humans are animals is a truth frequently turned into an insulting metaphor indicating "uncivilized" behavior in many cultures. Interestingly, the "civilizing" aspects of Western Culture in the Global North are historically derived from traditions of democracy based on living in cities from which the wild has been banished. This is embedded in the English language since civilizing and civilization come from the Latin for city, , the place where citizens hold voting rights.

Background: Workplace violence is prevalent in the nursing profession, and as a relatively junior link of the professional hierarchy, nursing students are not immune to it. Among these, verbal violence may have more serious consequences for the victims than physical violence, but the literature on verbal violence among nursing students in Chinese clinical settings is limited.
Aims: To explore the verbal violence experience among Chinese nursing students in clinical practice, and the strategies used by nursing students to cope with violence.
"Uncivilized children" or "victims of dementia": Interpretations of aggression in older assisted living tenants.

This study explores interpretations of interpersonal aggression involving older adults, through an analysis of semi-structured interview data from 13 assisted living (AL) tenants and 19 AL service and/or care workers. Differing relations (tenant-tenant and tenant-worker) shape the kinds of tenant actions experienced as problematic and/or aggressive. Tenants and workers invoke communal living, aging, and dementia as explanatory frames, in part to mitigate victimization experiences through normalization and neutralization.
