Introduction: The postpartum period is part of an important process for mothers and fathers. A sense of security is central as it might influence a parent’s journey towards becoming a successful parent. The aim was to determine factors affecting parents’ postnatal sense of security (PPSS)...

Background: The translation of evidence‐based practice (EBP) into routine nursing practice remains a persistent challenge. Aim: To evaluate the impact of a structured EBP Mentor Nurse Training Program, developed using the Johns Hopkins EBP model as a process guide and conceptually grounded in the ARCC (Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through Close Collaboration) model, which emphasizes the development of EBP mentors to enhance implementation and competency. Method: This quasi‐experiment used a pretest‐posttest design with equivalent control and intervention groups ( n = 52; intervention group = 26, control group = 26). The intervention consisted of a blended training program (16 h face‐to‐face, 3 h online) covering EBP, mentoring, and communication skills. The control group received no intervention. Data were collected using the Nurse Information Form, the Evidence‐Based Practice Evaluation Competency Scale, and the Mentoring Scale. The TREND statement guided reporting. Results: Post‐test results indicated significant improvements in the intervention group's EBP knowledge sub‐dimension and total competency scores. Statistically significant gains were also observed in the coaching, role modeling, counseling, acceptance and approval, and friendship sub‐dimensions of the Mentoring Scale. Effect sizes ranged from d = 0.5 (coaching) to d = 0.8 (EBP knowledge), indicating moderate to large practical significance. Linking Evidence to Action: Structured EBP mentorship programs effectively enhance nurses' knowledge, EBP competencies, and mentoring abilities. These outcomes align with the ARCC model, supporting the cultivation of EBP mentors as a sustainable strategy for EBP integration. Incorporating blended learning and active mentorship in nursing education can foster a culture of collaboration, improve clinical decision‐making, and promote better patient outcomes.

Negative genital self-image is associated with sexual unresponsiveness and dysfunction. This study aims to determine the relationship between men’s genital self-image and premature ejaculation, with identifying influencing factors. The research is designed as a descriptive and correlational study. The sample consists of 188 men aged 18 to 60 years who volunteered to participate in the study. A negative correlation was observed between genital self-image and premature ejaculation (P < .05). The average age of the participating men was 39.5 ± 9.79 years (mean ± SD), with 91.5% being married. The average age of the participants’ first sexual encounter was 20.43 ± 4.01 years, and 38.3% reported experiencing premature ejaculation. The mean score for the Male Genital Self-image Scale was 21.10 ± 5.59, and that for the Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool was 6.96 ± 3.73. As a result of the study, it was revealed that participants who experienced premature ejaculation were not at peace with their bodies and were dissatisfied with their sexual experiences and their genital size and function, with significantly lower levels of genital self-image (P < .05). Identifying factors that affect men’s genital self-image is crucial for maintaining sexual functions. In Turkey, sexuality is a taboo subject, often considered shameful and rarely discussed, making it challenging to find participants willing to engage in research. Men’s genital self-image influences the characteristics of premature ejaculation.
