Kalischuk, Ruth Grant; Thorpe, Karran
Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing, v33 n4 p155-63 Jul-Aug 2002
The concept of creativity was explored in focus groups with 12 nursing students and 2 faculty. Their perceptions centered on the theme of striving for balance, which enabled them to be most creative. Strategies for fostering creativity were related to this theme and three subthemes: enhancing self-esteem, working within structure, and making time for reflection. (Contains 35 references.) (SK)
