Evaluation of Future Nurses' Beliefs and Fears About Pain: A Descriptive and Correlational Study

Participants had high 'psychological beliefs' and 'severe pain' scores. It may be recommended to use interactive education methods such as case-based teaching for students to learn effective methods of coping with pain and realise their own beliefs and attitudes. Establishing simulation laboratories where students can experience all pain-related processes is also important in gaining knowledge and skills on pain management.
