Abstract

Reports from the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) and National Academy of Medicine (NAM) state that it is important to increase the number of underrepresented racial minorities in the health professions. Although the Black population is increasing in the United States, Black students continue to be underrepresented in nursing. Researchers indicate that when Black students are supported in positive environments and with accessible coaching, academic success may be fostered. It is important to understand the extent to which students are resilient. An evidence-based virtual coaching intervention may lead to increased resilience and academic success. Accordingly, the influence of specific coaching strategies on student resilience and success needs to be further examined. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a same gender and same race coaching intervention on Black female baccalaureate nursing students' perceptions of resilience.
