INTRODUCTION. Young students’ transition to higher education is a particularly challenging
and a stressful event, likely to trigger emotions that can potentially a+ect
their adaptation to a new and more demanding learning environment. This issue
has been a focus of growing interest for researchers involved in mentorship programmes
developed by higher education institutions, which are intended to contribute
to a healthy integration of students and, consequently, promote academic
inclusion and success. This project intends to understand the role of mentorship in
promoting emotional competence and well-being of nursing students.
METHODS. A research project of qualitative nature, with an analytical focus, using
a sociopoetic approach. Participants will be nursing professors and students (second-
year of the undergraduate degree) recruited from several public and private,
Portuguese and Brazilian, nursing schools. The methodological procedure includes
the creation of negotiation and data production workshops, data content analysis,
counter-analysis workshop and socialisation of data production.
CONCLUSIONS. We hope with this study to strengthen the relationship established
with the mentor may constitute a healthier and more adaptative emotional experience,
and potentiate generalization to other social contexts, improving daily life
interpersonal skills and promoting emotional competence, essential to personal
and professional development. This study will enable the development of the mentorship
process in the higher education institutions involved in this type of project,
grounded on the mentorees’ abilities to learn easily, to increase their socialisation
and their networks, to develop feelings of organizational citizenship, to potentiate
satisfaction with work and career, to improve their self-e8cacy and reduce their
stress levels.
