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.

The clinical practices provide the students with a good opportunity to study the practical experiences in their field through the clinical training education in hospital. Now, in this study, comparing the perceptions of the clinic teachers with those of students at the clinical site. The study was conducted to the students attending universities located in Seoul and who finished the clinical practices in 2013. The questionnaires were distributed to the student and collected from them. The study were conducted to 275 questionnaires with frequency analysis, crosstabs, chi-square test and McNemar test. The major motivation was of the select radiography course was high employment rate(44.0%) and the satisfaction of radiography course was general(53.1%). 51.3% of the study answered 8 weeks current duration of clinical practices is proper. The 3-year course students answered that the period of clinical practices would be proper if it is performed in the winter vacation in their second year in college(47.3%). The 4-year course students answered that the first semester in their third years is proper for clinical practices( 27.7%). The students answered that they felt the lack in their knowledge on the professional field(32.4%) during the clinical practices and some of the practical training is different from the education performed at school(68.4%). Most of answered that they were satisfied with the clinical practices and among them they recognized the importance of the clinical practices ($3.94{\pm}0.89$). After the clinical practices, their desire for getting job as a radiography has changed from 84.1% to 82.9%. The reason why they want the job related to the radiation is because the job is stable (changed from 49.0% to 46.0% after the clinical practice) while the reason why they don't want be a radigrapher because that job is not proper for them (changed from 37.0% to 40.7% after the clinical practice) The effort should be made to enhance the position of radiation professionals through the improved education system to the students, rather giving them education for just employment.

This descriptive study was conducted to investigate the relationship between clinical practice stress, satisfaction with clinical practice, and clinical performance ability of nursing college students and the nursing profession. Data were collected from 240 students in the nursing college. Clinical performance ability (F=1.888, p=0.048) and the nursing profession (F=1.976, p=0.046) showed statistically significant differences depending on the satisfaction of majors. The nursing professional institution contained more population groups that were dissatisfied than satisfied with the majors. Additionally, clinical practice stress was reported to affect satisfaction by 41% of the respondents. Overall, stressful clinical practice, clinical practice satisfaction and clinical performance were found to significantly affect the degree of satisfaction by nursing students. Accordingly, the level of stress experienced during clinical training also affects the performance of clinical practice, and can therefore lead to mistakes. Thus, there is a need to develop future interventions that could reduce the stress experienced by clinical practice nursing students.

Moreover, there were significant correlations between self-esteem and undesirable role model(r=.156, p=.029), communication competence and clinical practice stress(r=-.329, p<.001). The factors affecting clinical practice stress were communication competence, gender, satisfaction of clinical practice, and experience of simulation on clinical training. They amounted to 27.8% in clinical practice stress. The results indicate a need to develop effective teaching methods and learning strategies to decrease clinical practice stress of the nursing students.
