ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the role of the cognitive conflict theory combined with knowledge internalization teaching strategy in improving the core competence of nursing interns in the department of internal medicine.Methods:A total of 100 nursing interns in our department were randomly selected and divided into control group (provided with traditional teaching) and study group (provided with the cognitive conflict theory combined with knowledge internalization teaching strategy) according to the teaching methods. After one month of teaching, two groups were compared for the comprehensive competence, learning engagement, and assessment results. The t-test, chi-square test, or rank sum test was performed using SPSS 26.0. Results:The teaching quality score and degree of satisfaction with teaching in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(18.38±0.71) vs. (17.95±0.84), P<0.05]; the comprehensive competence, core competence score, and learning engagement subitem scores in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05); the theory score and skill score in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The cognitive conflict theory combined with knowledge internalization teaching strategy can effectively improve the quality of nursing teaching, effectively enhance the learning engagement of nursing interns, help improve the comprehensive competence and core competence of nursing interns, enable them to better acquire clinical nursing knowledge, and improve their satisfaction with clinical teaching.
