Too big to be seen: Weight-based discrimination among nursing students.
Nursing Forum 2018 July 4
An educational intervention was conducted to determine the efficacy of an obesity sensitivity program to determine nursing students' attitudes toward obese clients. As part of the clinical curriculum, nursing students (N = 103) received weekly obesity sensitivity education on weight-based discrimination. Students' completed a preproject and postproject attitudes toward obese persons scale (Barra, 2015) to evaluate discriminatory beliefs and actions. All clinical groups had a significant positive change in their own weight prejudices postobesity education intervention. Chi-square analysis was utilized as a measure of association between pre- and postobesity education with clinical application concerning obesity size, body odor, appearance, and lifestyle, along with provider fear of a back injury.
