(2025-11) Eronen, Lotta; Strandell‐Laine, Camilla; Wangensteen, Sigrid; Rauhala, Auvo; Andersen, Irene Aasen; Henriksen, Jette; Svavarsdóttir, Margrét Hrönn; Fagerström, Lisbeth; Faculty of Nursing
Aim The study aimed to describe and analyse Nordic nursing students' self-assessed clinical competence and their perceived need for further training at the end of their bachelor's studies. Design A cross-sectional survey. Data Sources From five Nordic countries, and 13 different universities, 291 survey answers were included. The Professional Nurse Self-Assessment Scale of clinical core competencies (PROFFNurse SAS II) was used for data collection. Results Graduating nursing students rated their clinical competence highest in acting ethically, taking responsibility for their decisions, and seeking help, and lowest in assessing patients' health via phone, email, or other health technology solutions, and in professional development. The highest need for further training was reported in medication interactions and side effects and differential diagnosis in health assessment. More than half of the respondents want to work in specialised healthcare after graduation, while less than a quarter want to work in primary care. One in five respondents expressed an intention to leave their career and low scores on self-assessed clinical competence were associated with increased intentions to leave. Conclusion The findings highlight the need for educational institutions to evaluate curricula to enhance graduating nurses' clinical competence in the areas needed, especially within eHealth. Implications for the Profession An effective competence development program is necessary to strengthen the competence and career path of newly graduated nurses. Impact Educational institutions play a crucial role in developing competency-based programs that meet quality standards and address current and future health needs, as well as global challenges. By assessing the clinical competence of graduating nursing students regularly nursing education can be developed based on the findings, which promotes high-quality patient care. Reporting Method STROBE guidelines were applied. Patient or Public Contribution Graduating nursing students from the Nordic countries participated in the study and contributed to this research by answering the survey.
ChatGPT í háskólastarfi, viðhorf og notkun kennara
(2025-12) Elídóttir, Jórunn; Zophoníasdóttir, Sólveig; Kennaradeild
Markmið rannsóknarinnar var að kanna viðhorf og reynslu háskólakennara af notkun gervigreindarverkfærisins ChatGPT í kennslu og rannsóknum, með hliðsjón af TAM-líkaninu (e. Technology Acceptance Model). Megindleg og eigindleg gögn voru greind út frá svörum 23 kennara við spurningakönnun. Niðurstöðurnar benda til þess að flestir kennarar telji það gagnlegt að nota ChatGPT í kennslu og rannsóknum. Margir þeirra höfðu þó áhyggjur af ChatGPT-notkun nemenda, fræðilegum heilindum og áreiðanleika verkfærisins. Viðhorf kennaranna til ChatGPT mótast meðal annars af gagnsemi verkfærisins og einfaldleika í notkun þess, svo og stuðningi og fræðslu sem þeim býðst. Niðurstöðurnar benda til þess að mikilvægt sé að háskólasamfélagið þrói stefnu um notkun gervigreindarverkfæra og efli gervigreindarlæsi (e. artificial intelligence literacy/AI-literacy) til að stuðla að ábyrgri og skapandi notkun þeirra. Jafnframt er mikilvægt að veita kennurum og nemendum stuðning til að nota tæknina á ábyrgan og árangursríkan hátt.
Childbirth Experience, Mistreatment, and Migrant Status : A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study
(2025-12) Mangindin, Edythe Laquindanum; Gottfreðsdóttir, Helga; Stoll, Kathrin; Cadée, Franka; Lárusdóttir, Elín Inga; Swift, Emma Marie; Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery
Introduction: Childbirth experience can affect women's long-term health and well-being. However, there is limited knowledge on whether migrant status affects woman's experience during childbirth. We aimed to answer the following research questions: (1) Is there a difference in childbirth experience between migrant and native-born women in Iceland; and (2) Are migrant women more likely to experience mistreatment in childbirth compared to native-born women in Iceland?. Methods: An online survey was developed including the Childbirth Experience Questionnaire 2 to assess overall childbirth experience, and descriptive analysis and linear regression were conducted to determine differences between migrant and native-born women in Iceland. The mistreatment by care providers in childbirth indicators were used to evaluate mistreatment in childbirth, and frequencies and logistic regression were conducted. Both regression models were adjusted for sociodemographic and obstetric factors. Results: A total of 1365 women participated. Migrant women reported statistically significantly lower scores for birth experience compared to native-born women (F [12, 1352] = 23.97, p < 0.001). There was no statistical difference between groups regarding mistreatment in childbirth. One in four of all women reported at least one form of mistreatment. Conclusion: This study suggests that there are areas in maternity care that can be improved upon, particularly in providing care for migrant women and addressing mistreatment in childbirth for all. Our results suggest further research in this area as well as evaluation of maternity systems, training in cultural competency and effective communication.
Prophylactic Aspirin Dose and Preeclampsia
(2025) Kupka, Ellen; Hesselman, Susanne; Gunnarsdóttir, Jóhanna; Wikström, Anna Karin; Cluver, Catherine; Tong, Stephen; Hastie, Roxanne; Bergman, Lina; Faculty of Medicine
Importance: It is unclear whether a higher dose (150-160 mg) or a lower dose (75 mg) of aspirin should be used to prevent preeclampsia. Objectives: To compare the risk of preeclampsia and bleeding complications between women using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin and those using 75 mg of aspirin for preeclampsia prevention. Design, Setting, and Participants: This nationwide cohort study included 13828 women giving birth at 22 weeks' gestation or later in Sweden between January 2017 and December 2020 who used low dose aspirin (75-160 mg) during pregnancy. Data were analyzed from October to November 2023. Exposure: The use of 150 to 160 mg or 75 mg of aspirin in pregnancy. Main Outcome and Measures: The main outcome was a preeclampsia diagnosis recorded in the maternal birth record at the time of hospital discharge. The main safety outcome was postpartum hemorrhage, defined as bleeding more than 1000 mL after delivery. Relative risks (RRs) and 95% CIs were estimated using a doubly robust inverse probability-weighted regression adjustment model controlling for background characteristics. Results: In the total cohort of 13828 women, the mean (SD) age was 33.0 (5.5) years and 3003 women (21.7%) were nulliparous. Of the women, 4687 (33.9%) were prescribed 150 to 160 mg of aspirin, and 9141 (66.1%) were prescribed 75 mg of aspirin. A total of 10635 women (76.9%) had at least 2 dispensed prescriptions of low-dose aspirin. Among women using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin, 443 (9.5%) developed preeclampsia compared with 812 (8.9%) of those using 75 mg of aspirin (adjusted RR [aRR], 1.07; 95% CI, 0.93-1.24). Additionally, the risk of postpartum hemorrhage between the groups was similar, with 326 women (6.9%) using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin experiencing a postpartum hemorrhage compared with 581 (6.4%) in the 75-mg group (aRR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.90-1.30). Conclusions and Relevance: In this cohort study of 13828 women, no difference was found in preeclampsia incidence or bleeding complications between those using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin vs 75 mg of aspirin during pregnancy for preeclampsia prevention. These findings suggest that either dose may be a reasonable choice when using aspirin to prevent preeclampsia. However, large randomized trials investigating aspirin dose in pregnancy are still needed.
Excessive events : The syntax and semantics of OVER-modification in Icelandic
(2025-04-16) Gast, Volker; Putnam, Michael T.; Jóhannsdóttir, Kristín Margrét; Faculty of Education
This article presents a detailed semantic and accompanying syntactic analysis of predicates denoting events that we describe as ‘excessive’ in Icelandic. Icelandic uses two types of strategies for marking of excess, the preposition yfir complemented by a reflexive pronoun or anaphor (e.g., Sara bakaði yfir sig ‘Sara baked too much’), and the verbal prefix of- (e.g., Sara of-bakaði kökuna ‘Sara over-baked the cake’). We argue that the former strategy expresses excess relative to the external argument, while the latter strategy expresses excess relative to the internal argument. We illustrate how the semantics of such predicates can be analysed using standard semantic approaches to degree predicates with some extensions, and how a decompositional approach to morphosyntax such as Distributed Morphology can capture these distinctions in a conceptually appealing way, with a plausible account of the syntax-semantics interface.
