Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between self-leadership and clinical decision making ability of nursing college students and to identify the mediating effect of critical thinking disposition.
Methods: Research subjects were 116 nursing students in the 2nd grades who have experienced fundamental nursing practice in the 1 university in city B. Data collection occurred between June 1, 2021 and July 1 of the same year. For data analysis, IBM SPSS Statistics WIN 22.0 Program was used to perform descriptive statistics, t-test, Pearson¡¯s correlation coefficients and Multiple regression. For mediating effect analysis, Baron and Kenny, bootstrapping method was used.
Results: There were significant positive relationships between self-leadership and clinical decision making ability (r=.41, p£¼.001), between critical thinking disposition and decision making ability (r=.69, p£¼.001). Self-leadership was significantly positively correlated with critical thinking disposition (r=?.55, p£¼.001). It was found that critical thinking disposition was completely mediated in the relationship between self-leadership and clinical decision making ability (95 % CI, 0.07¡0.27).
Conclusion: The results of this study highlight the need to develop and implement individualized nursing education programs that enhance critical thinking disposition in nurses to promote clinical decision making ability.
