The role of professional attitudes in shaping care behaviors: insights from Iranian nursing students.
Article in BMC medical education, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe advancement of science and technology has significantly impacted nursing, emphasizing the importance of professional attitudes and caring behaviors. While previous studies have examined this relationship, limited research has considered the specific educational and sociocultural context of Iranian nursing students. This study addresses this gap by investigating how these factors shape professional attitudes and caring behaviors in an Iranian nursing education setting.
methodsConducted at Tehran University of Medical Sciences in June 2024, the study involved 291 nursing students from their second to fourth years, selected through proportional random sampling. Data were gathered using the Professional Attitude for Student Nurses (IPASN) and Caring Behavior Inventory (CBI) instruments. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression analyses were performed using Stata version 14.
resultsA weak but statistically significant positive correlation was found between overall IPASN and CBI scores (r = 0.29, p < 0.01). Multiple regression analysis identified professional attitude (β = 0.257, p < 0.001) and satisfaction with nursing (β = 0.136, p = 0.017) as significant predictors of caring behaviors.
conclusionsEnhancing professional attitudes and satisfaction in nursing can improve caring behaviors, highlighting the need for targeted educational interventions and organizational changes. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
