Effects of Self-Regulated Digital Learning on Competence in Motivational Interviewing on Patients' Medication Adherence Among Psychiatric Mental Health Nurses

Motivational interviewing is an essential practical skill to promote medication adherence; however, it is rarely emphasised in nursing education. Purposes: 1. To develop a self-regulated digital learning system for motivational interviewing; 2. To evaluate the effectiveness of digital learning of motivational interviewing on mental health nurses' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy (confidence); 3.
