PALLIATIVE CARE LEARNING MODEL BASED ON TRANSFORMATIONAL LEARNING THEORY IN PALLIATIVE CARE OF NURSING STUDENTS IN INDONESIA
Introduction: Palliative care competence is one of the competencies that must be
possessed by generalist nurses. For this reason, strategies for developing palliative care
learning models need to be carried out to ensure nursing students have palliative care
competencies. Therefore, this study was structured to develop a transformation theory-
based palliative care learning model that prioritizes the active participation of students to
deal with palliative care in future practice. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional
study involving 189 nursing students as participants. The proposed model involves six
variables, namely student characteristics, educator characteristics, learning media,
palliative care competencies, transformative learning theory (TLT)-based palliative
learning, and competency achievement. Data were collected using a questionnaire that
was tested using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique. Results: SEM
analysis showed that the R2 value of TLT-based palliative care learning was 0.707 or
70.7%. These results indicate that the diversity of TLT-based palliative care learning
variables can be explained by the variables of students, educators, palliative
competencies, and learning media by 70.7%. Each construct has a value of Q2 > 0, which
means the model is satisfactory. The path coefficient value of 0.627 indicates that the
characteristics of educators have the most significant contribution to the TLT-based
palliative care learning model. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the teaching-learning
process based on TLT is a promising strategy to support nursing students to achieve
palliative care competenc
