First seen Jul 16, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether an online training program can improve nursing students' awareness of digital data security and their attitudes toward managing data in digital health environments. About 110 nursing students are randomly assigned to either receive the training or not. Researchers then measure changes using two questionnaires that assess data security awareness and data management attitudes.
