	abstract = {<p>Researchers examined school nurses\&$\#$39; perceptions of head lice, perceived self-efficacy in dealing with head lice, and personal experience in reducing head lice problems. Survey data from a two-wave mailing from 382 school nurses found most nurses supported a \&quot;no-nit\&quot; rule of forced absenteeism of any child with nits in their hair (60\%). They perceived OTC treatments for head lice as very effective in killing adult lice (66\%), and 9\% perceived them as not effective. Nurses had a high efficacy expectation regarding their ability to control head lice (63\%), and they had high outcome expectations regarding the results of their work with students and families of students (66\%). Most nurses received their information about head lice from professional journals (76\%) and professional conferences/conventions (62\%).</p>
