serious problems among college students and have detrimental
effects on their physical, psychological, and mental wellbeing. If

Study limitations
though this study has yielded much‐needed findings and makes an important

ibution to the literature, it has the following limitations:
ta were collected using self‐report measures.
NAQ assesses student perceptions. Thus, actual behaviors were not assessed.
over, the perceptions of clinical instructors, faculty members, and clinical nurses
not assessed. Therefore, future research should use different data collection
ods.
Study limitations
s study was conducted using a sample of students recruited from only one
ge. Therefore, the present findings cannot be generalized to the larger nursing
nt population. Future studies should recruit participants from a larger number
rsing colleges and different settings.
e participants were recruited using a nonprobability sampling method

student population.
