Nursing students from various backgrounds enroll in a university's nursing curriculum. The process by which they become nurses includes aspects of:
1. Culture.
2. Ethnicity.
3. Worldview.
4. Acculturation.
Answer: 4
Explanation: 4. Acculturation is cultural assimilation, where there is acquisition of some beliefs, values, and behaviors of another culture, in this case, nursing. While the students ultimately become part of the nursing culture, they have to be assimilated or undergo acculturation to become part of that culture. Ethnicity is an aggregate of cultural practices, social influences, and racial characteristics which is not a part of entering the nursing culture. Worldview refers to how a cultural group views the universe and their relationship to it.
