Objectives The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of nursing students' nunchi and self-determination on clinical practice stress.
Methods The subjects of this study were recruited from two universities located in U-city, and there were 123 nursing students. Data were collected from August 1, 2022 to November 30, 2022 using a Google questionnaire. The analysis method was performed by real number, percentage, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Hierarchical regression using the SPSS/WIN 25.0 program.
Results Clinical practice stress in Nursing students showed a negative correlation with nunchi(r=-.255 p<.01) and self-determination(r=-.398, p<.001). As a result of Hierarchical regression analysis, self-determination (β=-.220, p<.05), clinical practice satisfaction: dissatisfaction (β=.460, p<.001), clinical practice satisfaction: average (β= .190, p<. 05) were found to be factors affecting clinical practice stress, and the explanatory power of these variables was 33.5% (F=11.238, p<.001, Adjusted R2=33.5%).
Conclusions In order to reduce the stress of clinical practice, it is necessary to identify the difficulties that nursing students experience in the clinical field in detail, and seek a realistic clinical practice guidance strategy that supports students to find appropriate solutions while maximizing their self-determination. In addition, it is rnecessary to develop an educational program that can apply these teaching strategies.
