What are the Common Causes of Attrition in Nursing Studies?
Several factors can lead to attrition in nursing research, including:
Long study duration: Participants may find it challenging to commit over extended periods. Patient health status: Worsening health conditions can lead to dropouts. Inconvenient follow-up schedules: Participants may find follow-up sessions inconvenient or burdensome. Lack of interest: Participants might lose interest in the study over time. Relocation: Moving to a different area can make continued participation difficult.
