Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a multicultural education program for nursing students and to examine its effects on multicultural sensitivity and efficacy.
Methods: A research design for this study was a non-equivalent control group, non-synchronized pre-post test. The experimental group (n=34) participated in a 13-week multicultural education program while the control group (n=35) attended regular classes having no relation with multiculture for the same period as that of the experimental group. Multicultural sensitivity and efficacy were measured before and after the program. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires and analyzed using the PASW 18.0 program.
Results: Total scores for multicultural sensitivity and efficacy were significantly increased in the experimental group compared with the control group after the program. The subcategories of multicultural sensitivity; ‘respect for cultural differences’, ‘interaction enjoyment’ and multicultural efficacy; ‘general functions’, ‘considering multicultural families’ were increased respectively, whereas others were not changed.
Conclusion: Based on these results, it can be suggested that a 13-week multicultural education program is effective for improving nursing students’ level of multicultural sensitivity and efficacy.
