Abstract
|

|
Objectives: A descriptive survey was used in this study to identify the relationship between nursing students’ grit, critical thinking disposition, and clinical competence and to examine factors that influence clinical competence.
Methods: Data were collected from 241 nursing students and analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson correlation, and stepwise multiple regression analysis with the SPSS/WIN 24.0 PC program.
Results: Clinical competence was found to have significant pure correlations with critical thinking disposition (r=.49, p<.001), and grit (r=.31, p<.001). The most influential factors influencing nursing students’ clinical competence were critical thinking disposition (β=.35, p<.001), and grit (β=.28, p<.001), and these factors explained 33% of the variance in clinical competence.
Conclusions: The findings indicate the need to develop and apply strategies and educational programs to enhance individual nurse's critical thinking disposition and grit. Furthermore, exploration is needed on ways to enhance clinical competence.
