Baccalaureate nursing students' identification with the women's movement.
To determine if nursing and nonnursing students changed their attitudes about themselves and the "typical nurse" in relation to feminist movement goals, results of 291 questionnaires were studied. A significant difference was found in the view of self and typical nurse for female nursing students, the nurses showing more feminist leanings as they progressed in school. Male nurses, nonnurses, and females in typical and atypical female majors rated themselves lower than female nurses on the feminist scale.
