Abstract

FOR MANY YEARS, responsible faculty members in schools of nursing have been painfully aware of deficiencies in the methods used to assist in the adjustment and development of students and to record change in attitudes. Various plans have been tried with indifferent success, but always with a hopeful open-mindedness for new and more helpful suggestions. An environment may be designed to give the students professional and social advantages, and an educational program may be planned which is interesting to them and adapted to their needs, but, in spite of the most careful and painstaking selection of students, their experience and home background are so varied that special attention has to be given to each individual in order to bring out her best qualities. This is important in helping her to decide whether she should continue in nursing and for what special field she seems best qualified. It is the purpose of the present article to describe how the anecdotal behavior record has been used in a technical institute and to point out implications which this device might have for schools of nursing.
