Purpose: The study was to identify the relationship among perceived stress, coping strategies and satisfaction f clinical experience in nursing students and to examine difference of grade. Methods: A total 238 nursing students (second grade: 141 students, third grade: 97 students) from K. Womens' College were provided with self reported questionnaires from July 26, 2006 to July. 30, 2006. Perceived stress was measured using Perceived Stress Scale. Coping was measured using Coping Responses Inventory-Adult form. Satisfaction of clinical experience was measured using Satisfaction Inventory. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson's Correlation Coefficient with SPSS 12.0 program. Result: Participants showed that a high level of perceived stress score $2.71{\pm}.47$ of total 4 (2nd grad) and $2.67{\pm}.35$ of total 4 (3rd grade). Approach Coping Scales score of coping strategies was $68.19{\pm}6.06$ (2nd grade), $63.38{\pm}6.69$ (3rd grade) of total 96, then coping mechanism's mean among 2nd grade nursing students was higher than 3rd grade nursing students. Satisfaction score of clinical experience in 2nd grade nursing students was $3.01{\pm}.32$ and higher than 3rd grade ($2.99{\pm}.38$). There was a negative correlation r=-.264 (p=.000) between perceived stress during clinical practice and satisfaction. It was statistically significant. There was a positive correlation r=.154 (p<.05) between satisfaction score of clinical experience in nursing students and approach coping scales score. Conclusion: With these findings, we found that the more approach coping level, the more satisfaction of clinical practice. It is needed to developing effective teaching method and coping strategies for nursing students to improve their coping ability and prepare qualified nursing profession.

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors affecting nursing practice of clinical nurses in the COVID-19 situation and provide basic data that could improve nursing practice in the pandemic situation. For this descriptive research, a survey was conducted to collect data from 119 clinical nurses in G City for six weeks from June 15 to July 20, 2022. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression were used. The results showed that infection control practice (r=.428, p<.001) and resilience (r=.324, p<.001) were statistically significantly correlated with nursing practice. As a factor affecting nursing practice of clinical nurses, infection control practice (B=.529, p<.001) had an explanatory power of 18.3%. This result is thought to be due to the fact that COVID-19 infection control acted as a new burden on nursing work in the COVID-19 pandemic, and recovery elasticity and job stress did not have an influence. It is however necessary to help clinical nurses relieve job stress and perform high-quality nursing through regular counseling for clinical nurses suffering severe job stress.

This study was conducted to identify the influence of clinical practice stress and the stress coping type on the self-leadership of nursing students. The subjects were 122 nursing students in B city and the data were collected from May 6 to May 13, 2015. The data were analyzed by means of the t-test, ANOVA, Scheff's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and Stepwise multiple regression. Significant differences were found in the self-leadership by health status (p<.001), interpersonal relationships (p=.001), satisfaction with nursing major (p<.001) and satisfaction with clinical practice (p=.002). Self-leadership was negatively related to clinical practice stress (p=.028) and positively related to stress coping style (p<.001). The meaningful variables which influenced self-leadership were the health status, stress coping type and satisfaction with nursing major. The total explanatory power was 28.1% and the health status was the most influential factor. Therefore, in order to enhance the self-leadership of nursing students, it is necessary for them to maintain a good health condition and to have an effective stress coping type. In addition, methods are needed to increase the satisfaction of nursing major students.

The purposes of this study were to identify the stress level of nursing students prior to clinical training and to examine the effects of aromatherapy on stress, stress perception, and mood during clinical practice. This study was a randomized control trial using a pre-post test conducted from May-July 2016. A total of 41 junior nursing students were recruited. The experimental group (n=22) underwent aroma inhalation using a necklace containing lavender essential oil and a control group (n=19) used a normal saline necklace. There were significant improvements in stress (p=.023) and mood levels in the experimental group (p=.006). The difference in stress perception between the experimental and control groups was not statistically significant (p=.382). Aroma therapy might be useful for decreasing stress and improving their positive mood during clinical practice for nursing students.

The purpose of this study was investigate the relationship between the degree of satisfaction of the clinical practice and the stress factors for dental hygiene students. Dental hygiene students to 232 people from May 21, 2012 to June 22, 2012 and analyzed using by SPSS for Windows ver. 12.0 program. Regarding the stress factors, by the school system, all the factors, including the environmental factor, the role factor, the interpersonal relationships factor, the ideal and value factor, and the Brief Encounter Psychosocial Instrument (BEPSI) were higher in the 3-year system than in the 4-year system (p<0.01). Regarding the stress factors according to the degree of satisfaction regarding the practices, all the factors were high when unsatisfied. Among these, the environmental factor was the highest (p<0.001). According to the practice organization, the environmental factor was the highest among the university dental hospital. The interpersonal relationship factor and the ideal and value factor were the highest among the dental hospitals. The role factor and the BEPSI were the highest among the dental clinics (p<0.01). When the hospital atmosphere was bad, the environmental factor was the highest (p<0.001). As a result of analyzing the correlations between the stress factors of the hospital practices, there were the positive correlations among the environment, the roles, the interpersonal relationship, the ideals and values, and the BEPSI (p<0.01). The stress factor that showed the biggest influence on the BEPSI was interpersonal relationships. In the clinical practice, because of the unfamiliar environment and the insufficiency of the interpersonal relationships, the stress indices of the students can be higher than at ordinary times. I believe that, as such, a systematic management plan for the clinical practice for raising the ability of the students to cope with the stress by themselves must be prepared.
