The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating effect of academic self-efficacy in the relationship between self-management competency and employment preparation behavior of senior nursing students. The data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 program, frequency analysis, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression. As a result of the study, self-management competency was positively correlated with academic self-efficacy, employment preparation behavior, and academic self-efficacy with employment preparation behavior. Academic self-efficacy showed a partial mediating effect between self-management competency and employment preparation behavior. The higher the level of self-management competency and academic self-efficacy, the higher the level of employment preparation behavior, and the explanatory power (R²) was 34%. Therefore, it suggests that it is important to develop self-management competency and to prepare an integrated strategy that can induce a sense of academic self-efficacy in order to promote the employment preparation behavior of nursing students.

Purpose: This study was aimed to find out the effect of core competency and teaching style on preceptor self-efficacy among preceptors. Methods: One hundred twelve nurses working at four university hospitals with previous preceptor experience participated in the survey. The data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression. Results: The preceptors used 'judgment-initiative' teaching style most frequently, and reported the highest scores in the role model dimension of core competency. There were significant positive relations between age (r=.266, p=.005), clinical experience (r=.274, p=.004), preceptorship experience (r=.204, p=.032), core competency (r=.593, p<.001) and preceptor self- efficacy. But preceptor self-efficacy was not significantly different depending on the teaching style (F=0.72, p=.54). The most predictive factors of the preceptor self-efficacy were core competency and teaching style (judgment)(F=31.849, p<.001). The explained variance for preceptor self-efficacy was 35.9% in the model. Conclusion: The preceptor self-efficacy is essential for the preceptors' successful teaching experience and the clinical competency improvement of the entry level nurses. Management for an effective preceptor training program needs to focus on the improvement of core competency of preceptors, which will lead to strengthen their self-efficacy.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the status and factors associated with self-management behavior (SMB) of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in a border area of southwest China. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with T2DM patients in Dali, China. The participants filled in the questionnaires including demographic and disease-related characteristics, psychosocial status, resources of DM knowledge, knowledge of DM care, competency in DM care skills, the Chinese Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale (C-DMSES), and the Chinese Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (C-SDSCA). All the data were analyzed with SPSS version 26. Multiple linear regression analysis examined associations between predictors and SMB. Results: A total of 470 valid questionnaires have been collected. The score for overall SMB was 50.71± 11.99; 19.6% of patients were at a good level, 48.3% were moderate, and 32.1% were poor. The significant factors that influenced SMB included self-efficacy (β= 0.37; p< .001), competency in DM care skills (β= 0.22; p< .001) and lacked in the treatment confidence (β= -0.09; p= .023). Conclusion: The level of self-management among T2DM patients in this area was medium-low state. For future studies, our findings suggest that self-efficacy, competency in DM care skills, and treatment confidence should be considered essential factors in improving the self-management behavior of T2DM patients in the border area of southwest China.
