Description

This dataset contains anonymized data from 169 nursing students enrolled at a public university in northern Chile. It includes sociodemographic variables and item-level responses and derived scores from the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS), Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21), Maslach Burnout Inventory–Student Survey (MBI-SS), and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale–Student (UWES-S). The psychometric refinement of the BHS analytical score and the exclusion of two influential observations are described in the associated manuscript. The dataset contains no direct participant identifiers and corresponds to the data underlying the reported analyses.
