Özet
Background: In 2007, reforms by the Turkish government forced a rapid integration of male nursing students into previously all-female schools. The minimal amount of time for faculty preparation, little guidance from nursing leaders and the extant literature, and a societal context of patriarchy created unique challenges for faculty. Objective: The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore and interpret the experiences of nursing faculty as they adapted to the sudden inclusion of men in schools of nursing. Design: A qualitative descriptive study Settings: Nine schools from six regions across Turkey Participants: 99 nursing faculty who were 22 to 55 years of age, primarily female (97.8%), married (65.6%).
