Abstract<\/h2>\n

Objective:  The aims of this study were to investigate the association between feedback and anxiety, while also exploring the feedback and support experiences of graduate nurses.
\nDesign: This study used a mixed methods approach.
\nSetting: Participants completed an online survey.
\nSubjects: The study included 107 Australian graduate nurses.
\nMain outcome measures: Anxiety and feedback.
\nResults: Using bivariate regression a negative relationship was identified between feedback and anxiety. Further analysis using one-way analysis of variance revealed that participants who received regular and quality feedback and support reported the lowest anxiety. The second aim was assessed by reviewing participants\u2019 subjective comments regarding their experiences as graduate nurses. Results revealed high variability in feedback and support experiences. The data gathered suggests graduate nurses experience anxiety during their transition from university to professional nursing.
\nConclusion: The provision of regular feedback and support was associated with reduced anxiety in graduate nurses. Thesepreliminary findings highlight the importance of regular and appropriate feedback and support to facilitate learning,successful role transition and improved patient outcomes.<\/p>\n
