Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the menstrual pain, clinical practice stress, and clinical competence and identify influencing factors of clinical competence of 3rd nursing students who start clinical practice for the first tim. The survey was conducted on 155 nursing students from June 1 to October 30, 2020. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. The degree of influence menstrual pain was 5.01points, clinical practice stress was 2.82points, clinical competence was 3.42points. Menstrual pain was positive correlated with clinical practice stress(r=.319, p=.000), and menstrual pain was negative correlated with clinical competence(r=-.279, p=.000). Clinical practice stress was negative correlated with clinical competence(r=-.333, p=.005). Menstrual pain was main factor that affects clinical competence. The model explained 25.0% of the variables. Therefore, intervention education is needed to reduce menstrual pain in order to improve the clinical competence of nursing students.

본 연구는 임상실습을 처음 시작하는 간호대학 3학년생을 대상으로 월경통증, 임상실습 스트레스, 임상수행능력 정도와 상관관계를 확인하고 임상수행능력에 영향을 주는 요인을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 간호대학생 155명을 대상으로 2020년 10월 1일부터 10월 30일까지 설문조사 하였으며, 수집된 자료는 SPSS 22.0 프로그램을 이용하여 t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Person's correlation coefficients, 다중회귀분석을 하였다. 연구결과 월경통증은 5.01점, 임상실습 스트레스는 2.82점, 임상수행능력은 3.4점 이었다. 월경통증은 임상실습 스트레스와 양의 상관관계를(r=.319, p=.000), 임상수행능력과 음의 상관관계를(r=-.279, p=.000) 보였으며, 임상실습 스트레스와 임상수행능력은 음의 상관관계를(r=-.333, p=.005) 보였다. 임상수행능력에 가장 유의한 영향을 준 요인은 월경통증이고 설명력은 25.0%였다. 따라서 간호대학생의 임상수행능력을 증진시키기 위해 월경통증 완화를 위한 중재 교육이 필요하다.
