Objective: This study explores how shared decision-making (SDM) is integrated in undergraduate nursing and medical education.
Methods: A dual-method design was applied. The integration of SDM in medicine and nursing education programs (i.e. SDM on paper) was explored through document analyses; the integration of SDM in curricula (i.e. SDM in class) through interviews with teachers and curriculum coordinators (N = 19).
Results: A majority of the education programs featured SDM, mostly non-explicit. In curricula SDM was generally implicitly featured in compulsory courses across all study years. SDM was often integrated into preexisting theories and models and taught through various methods and materials. Generally, teachers and supervisors were not trained in SDM themselves. They assessed students' competence in SDM in a summative manner.
Conclusion: Overall, SDM was featured in undergraduate nursing and medical education, however, very implicitly.

Keele University, Stafforshire, UK.
Purpose: To investigate associations between dry eye disease (DED) symptoms and psychological distress (depression, anxiety, stress) among undergraduate health sciences and nursing students in the Gaza Strip during the 2023-2025 conflict period.
Methods: A cross-sectional study used convenience sampling via WhatsApp and face-to-face interviews between 4 February and 29 April 2025. Participants completed a demographic form, the Arabic Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), and the Arabic Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-8 (DASS-8).
Background: The growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in health care raises concern, as nursing students are not adequately educated on its use in practice. This study evaluated the effect of an AI education module on undergraduate nursing students' AI literacy and anxiety.
Method: Students completed surveys measuring AI literacy and anxiety before and after the module, which included videos, articles, a presentation, and an assignment using ChatGPT.

Purpose: Nurses and nurse educators perceive a lack of knowledge, education, training, and educational materials related to dissociative disorders (DDs) and dissociative symptoms. Additionally, nurses and nurse educators report bias around the teaching of these concepts. Previous research on undergraduate psychopathology textbooks indicated insufficient and inaccurate coverage of dissociation and related concepts, but no such studies had been conducted within the profession of nursing.
