摘要：

The present article describes the cultural adaptation and validation of the Greek version of the Acceptability of Locking the Door Questionnaire and aims to determine students' preference regarding mental health nursing as a possible career choice. The linguistic adaptation of the original instrument was performed according to the most recent guidelines and it was then administered to 274 third-year nursing students. Results support the validity and reliability of the instrument, which can be used to assess effectively the attitudes of the intended population. Sixty per cent of students considered mental health nursing as a possible career choice. Research on students' attitudes appeared to be a strategy of creating the space for lively discussions among them and capturing their interest in mental health education and practice. Theoretical preparation and clinical placements of mental health nursing students should incorporate strategies to improve their perceptions of working in mental health settings.
