THE PSYCHOLOGICAL IMPACT OF AMBIGUOUS MENTORSHIP TRANSPARENCY AND TRUST AMONG NURSING INSTITUTES IN KARACHI

Abstract

Nursing education is dependent on mentorship to influence the students, including their professional growth, emotional stability, and career growth. Nevertheless, in the case of mentorship being obscure with no direction, conviction, and clarity, it could adversely affect the psychological health of student nurses. This review examines mental implications of ambiguous mentorship trends at the nursing institutes in Karachi. With reference to both international and regional body of literature, this paper examines the connection among mentorship ambiguity, psychological stress, institutional transparency and trust-led relationships. The results indicate that unclear mentorship is related to anxiety, low confidence, and burnout of nursing students and lower academic involvement. The discussion of policy-based suggestions and future studies is provided
