Objectives To determine the effect of advocacy education on the attitude of nursing students towards persons with disabilities. Methods This study is a one-group pretest-posttest design: a quasi-experimental study. The study population consisted of 38 students who were enrolled in the advocacy course in the final year of nursing school in a public university. A ten-week Disability Advocacy Education Program was implemented. Data was collected using the Data Sheet and Multidimensional Attitudes Scale Toward Persons with Disabilities. Results Male students were found to have higher mean scores after the education; there was no statistically significant difference for other variables such as family structure, place of residence, and whether they have received education on disabilities. Conclusions Nursing students have a positive attitude towards people with disabilities, and that male students’ attitudes improved after education. Implications for International Audience Advocacy education provided to students help them develop a positive attitude towards people with disabilities. |
