Purpose : This study is aimed at evaluating the effect of inter senior-junior mentoring and the mentor education program on KAFNA Cadets` ability towards adjustment, stress, relationship and empathy.
Methods : In this study, nonequivalent control group pre-post test design was used as a research method. A total of 125 cadets(senior 64/junior 61) were divided into 3 groups: an experimental group which was mentored through the education program, a comparison group that mentored themselves, and control group. Self reported survey data was collected at a baseline(pre-test) and following the program(post-test).
Results : Mentoring was effective in increasing mentor`s adjustment, but not the mentee`s. The mentor education program was effective in increasing the satisfaction of mentoring and mentor`s adjustment and empathy abilities. However, there were no significant differences in dependent variables among the groups.
Conclusion : The mentor education program positively influenced inter senior-junior mentoring satisfaction and mentors. In this respect, this program can contribute in enhancing a cadet`s ability to effectively mentor and nurse competency such as empathy.
