Abstract
- Introduction: Increased migration may lead to an increase in prejudiced attitudes in the host population, which may affect the nursing care provided to this group. Objectives: To identify the attitudes of nursing students toward Moroccan patients and to analyze whether changes in attitude toward this population have taken place after completing a course on cross-culturalism. Method: A quasi-experimental design with a single group and pretest/posttest measurements. The sample consisted of 116 nursing students. Results: There were significant differences after receiving the course on cross-culturalism, with a more positive influence on students who exhibited the most negative attitudes in the pretest phase. Discussion: Nursing students have negative attitudes toward the Moroccan population as do the rest of the host population, but these attitudes improve after their training in the course on cross-culturalism.
