Abstract
Background:
Barriers exist in nursing education for students with disabilities. Students with disabilities often experience associated stigma and a perceived lack of support by nursing faculty and academic leaders.
Method:
A nonexperimental descriptive design was used to examine differences in perceived marginality between nursing students with and without disabilities (
n
= 7,399) in the United States.
Results:
Participants who identified as having a disability described more marginalization (
M
= 45.9,
SD
= 10.5) than participants who did not identify as having a disability (
M
= 38.3,
SD
= 9.2), t(927) = 19.4,
p
< .001.
Conclusion:
Findings suggest marginalization exists for students with disabilities. Academic leaders and faculty should address systems, structures, and polices that potentially pose barriers to self-reporting, matriculation, and progression of students with disabilities.
