Data set for perceived self-efficacy and readiness to teach CAC.xlsx

It has been found in the literature that it is challenging to provide quality comprehensive abortion care (CAC) as abortion is not routinely taught in nursing and midwifery schools. Therefore, to destigmatize abortion and improve access, undergraduate nursing and midwifery programs must include CAC in their curriculums. The literature exploring nurse educators' self-efficacy in teaching CAC is scarce, which is an added value of this research article. Therefore, we conducted a mixed-method study to assess nursing and midwifery self-efficacy in teaching CAC. The instrument tool comprises two sections: the first section features contextualized socio-demographic questions, while the second section encompasses 54 items gauging self-efficacy across course preparation (10 questions), instructor behaviour and delivery (14 questions), evaluation and examination (14 questions), and clinical practice (16 questions). The items underwent randomization and were assessed using a four-point scale: not confident, somewhat confident, moderately confident, and completely confident. Each question within each component received a score on a 0-3 scale.
