Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between self-esteem, stress and interpersonal relationship of nursing college students.
Method: The data were collected from 170 students during the period of May 15 to 23, 2014 using self-esteem inventory, relationship change scale and stress measurement scale for Korean nursing college students.
Result: Data analysis revealed that the self-esteem score of the subjects was 74.32±13.20, the level of stress was 98.22±27.83 and the interpersonal relationship score was 87.86±12.59, respectively. As school year increases, self-esteem scores were decreased and the stress levels were increased (p < .001, respectively). Students with higher major satisfaction, higher self-recognized health status or higher self-rating interpersonal relationship showed increased interpersonal relationship scores. There was significant negative correlation between stress and interpersonal relationship (r = - .285, p < .001) and between self-esteem and stress (r = - .457, p < .001) while positive correlation was shown between self-esteem and interpersonal relationship (r = .325, p < .0001).
Conclusion: To promote an effective interpersonal relationship of nursing college students, specific programs should be developed that would cater the needs of the students in self-esteem enhancement and relevant programs to decrease the level of stress they are experiencing.
