Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of empathy, communication competence and person-centered care of nursing students to identify the factors that influence person-centered care. Data were collected by using questionnaires from 207 students in the 3rd and 4th grades of the nursing college who experienced clinical practice in G city, from May 2 to 20, 2022. Data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Games-Howell test, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression. Statistically, person-centered care showed a significantly positive correlation with empathy(r=.57, p<.001) and communication competence(r=.63, p<.001). Influencing factors on person-centered care were communication competence(β=.44, p<.001), empathy(β=.30, p<.001) and clinical practice satisfaction(β=-.13, p=.028) accounting for 49.8% of the total change. Based on this results, in order to improve person-centered care of nursing students, it is necessary to develop education programs to increase communication competence and empathy ability and to provide active feedback through pre and post evaluation to increase clinical practice satisfaction.

본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 공감능력, 의사소통능력, 인간중심간호 정도를 파악하고 인간중심간호에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하고자 함이다. 2022년 05월 02일부터 05월 20일까지 G시 소재 대학에 재학 중인 임상실습을 경험한 간호대학생 3학년과 4학년 207명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료분석은 t-test, ANOVA, Games-Howell test, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation, multiple regression으로 분석하였다. 인간중심간호는 공감능력(r=.57, p<.001), 의사소통능력(r=.63, p<.001)과 유의한 순 상관관계를 보였다. 인간중심간호에 대한 영향요인은 의사소통능력(β=.44, p<.001), 공감능력(β=.30, p<.001), 임상실습만족도(β=-.13, p=.028) 순으로 총 변화량의 49.8%를 설명하였다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 간호대학생의 인간중심간호를 향상시키기 위해 의사소통능력 및 공감능력을 높이기 위한 교육 프로그램 개발을 모색하고 임상실습만족도를 높이기 위한 사전·사후 평가를 통한 적극적인 피드백이 필요하다.
