Self-identified stressors in the role of nursing faculty.
A card-sort methodology was found to be a rapid and systematic approach for the identification of stressors for a baccalaureate nursing faculty. It would seem that multiple stressors exist within the role of nursing faculty. These may be categorized into four main sections: stressors related to Academia, Administration, Clinical and Classroom. The methodology provided assistance with prioritizing such stressors for problem solving by the faculty. An issue in conducting this type of research is confidentiality as demonstrated in faculty reluctance to reveal demographic data that might serve to connect responses with the source.
