BACKGROUND: Child abuse and neglect (CAN) remain pressing issues globally, particularly in countries like Jordan with socio-economic challenges. Enhancing nursing students' knowledge and attitudes toward CAN is critical in preparing future nurses to identify and address these cases effectively.
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess nursing students' knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions regarding CAN, focusing on identifying gaps and unique psychosocial insights.
METHOD: A cross-sectional study was conducted to recruit a sample of 559 nursing students from a private university in the capital of Jordan.
RESULTS: Students in the regular program (after secondary education) demonstrated significantly higher knowledge scores on CAN detection and reporting (M = 23.7, SD = 3.79) than bridging program students (M = 18.7, SD = 4.36; t = 1.88, p < 0.05). Attitude scores were comparable between groups, 48.7 % showing positive attitudes. Students identified children from low-income families, shy children, and academically slow children as most vulnerable to abuse. Two major themes emerged from qualitative responses: the psychosocial consequences of CAN and its long-term societal impacts.
CONCLUSION: The study uniquely highlights the nuanced perceptions of CAN among nursing students in a resource-limited context. Addressing identified knowledge gaps and emphasizing the importance of detecting and reporting abuse, particularly sexual abuse, can empower future nurses and society to better report and detect CAN.
