Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of self-directed learning ability and creativity on college adjustment in nursing students. Method: Data were collected by questionnaires from 148 nursing students in October, 2010. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression. Results: A positive correlation was found for college adjustment with self-directed learning ability and creativity. Self-directed learning ability and major satisfaction were significant predictors of college adjustment. The model explained 44.1% of the valuables. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that self-directed learning be considered when developing strategies to increase college adjustment in nursing students.
