And interpersonal relations was an average of 3.55¡¾0.35 points in the range of 1 point to 5 points. Nursing competence was an average of 2.65¡¾0.39 points in the range of 1 point to 4 points. Professional self-concept and interpersonal relations were positively correlated with nursing competence.

The regression model with clinical career, working unit, educational background, satisfaction on nursing, 3 sub domain of professional self-concept(professional practice, satisfaction, communication), and interpersonal relation was statistically significant (F=31.94, p£¼.001). And this model could explain 51.5% of nursing competency(Adj R2=.515).
