Title Ensuring doctoral research is relevant to the international nursing community Type Journal Article
Year (down) 2023 Publication Nursing Praxis in Aotearoa New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 39 Issue 2 Pages
Keywords Nursing research; Doctoral research; PhD research; International research community
Abstract Argues that nurses undertaking doctoral research have a responsibility to ensure their research engages with international nursing research and is relevant post-doctorally. Distinguishes between the purpose of PhDs and Professional Doctorates. Finds that nursing doctoral graduates are impeded from assuming leading roles in funded research. Attempts to find ways to address this challenge, suggesting that remote attendance at conferences and Internet communication with nurse researchers overseas encourages an international perspective on nursing topics. Backgrounds the establishment of an international nursing research community between Oxford Brookes University in the UK and Victoria University of Wellington in NZ.

Title 'Never mind the quality, feel the width': The nonsense of 'quality', 'excellence', and 'audit' in education, health and research Type Journal Article
Year (down) 2008 Publication Collegian: Journal of the Royal College of Nursing Australia Abbreviated Journal
Volume 15 Issue 1 Pages 35-41
Keywords Accountability; Quality assurance; Organisational change; Nursing research; Nursing; Education
Abstract The author contends that health care and education have been colonised by 'The Audit Society' and managerialism. It is argued that under the benign guise of 'improving quality' and 'ensuring value for money' a more Orwellian purpose operates. Academics had to be transformed into a workforce of 'docile bodies', willing to scrutinise and survey themselves and their 'performance' as outcome deliverers and disciples of the new 'Qualispeak'. This paper critiques the current obsession with audit and performativity, and the constant and often pointless 'change' that is held to be so self-evidently 'a good thing' and identifies policy discussion as a linguistic wasteland.

Title Encouraging young women to have regular smear tests Type Journal Article
Year (down) 2008 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 14 Issue 7 Pages 16-18
Keywords Nursing research; Sexual and reproductive health; Screening; Attitude to health; Cancer
Abstract The author presents the results of a study carried out as part of a research project with two nurse researchers from Maastricht University in the Netherlands. The aim of this study was to examine awareness among female students aged 18 to 25 about cervical cancer and to identify factors associated with their decision or intention to enter the cervical screening programme. Students aged 18-25 were recruited from four tertiary institutions in the Wellington region. A questionnaire was available online and distributed by student health centres and the researchers. Questions covered the following areas: intentions, attitude, knowledge, awareness, modelling, and support systems and efficacy. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics, multiple regression and independent t-tests. The findings are presented, and factors associated with intention and participation in cervical screening are discussed. The results indicate that the information concerning the national screening programme needs to be adjusted for the different age groups.
