The purpose of this study was to identify factors affecting clinical practice-related fatigue among undergraduate nursing students. The data were collected from a questionnaire distributed among 129 juniors and seniors (3rd and 4th year students) in nursing college at the G city, who were at the end of clinical practice. Multiple regression analysis found that the significant major predictors of clinical practice-related fatigue among nursing students were sleep quality (${\beta}=.30$), anxiety (${\beta}=.26$), exercise frequency (${\beta}=-.21$) and clinical practice stress (${\beta}=.19$). These variable factors could explain 33.6% of clinical practice-related fatigue among nursing students. This study suggests that sleep quality, anxiety, exercise frequency, and clinical practice stress are significant factors of clinical practice-related fatigue among nursing students. Therefore, strategies improving sleep quality and exercise and managing anxiety and stress should be developed to reduce the fatigue for nursing students during clinical exposure.

This study is a descriptive research study for analyzing the relevance among stress, anxiety, and ego-resilience in nursing college students before clinical practice. The survey was conducted targeting the second-year students in a K college who were anticipating their first clinical practice. The survey result showed that female students showed higher stress levels than male students (t=-5.51, p<.001) before clinical practice. Female students also showed higher anxiety levels than male students (t=-3.30, p=.001) before clinical practice. The students showed higher anxiety levels before clinical practice as they felt more strongly that they were in bad health (F=3.27, p=.041), as their personality was less outgoing (t=-3.32, p=.001), and as they had a lower satisfaction level in their major (F=7.25, p=.001). The students showed higher ego-resilience levels before clinical practice as they felt more strongly that they were in good health (F=3.74, p=.026) and as their personality was more outgoing (F=3.19, p=.002). The stress and anxiety levels before clinical practice also had a positive correlation (r=.211, p=.010) and the ego-resilience and anxiety before clinical practice had a negative correlation (r=-.313, p<.001). Based on the finding, it is necessary to develop the competence improvement program that can reduce the anxiety of nursing college students before clinical practice in order to improve their ego-resilience.

The fourth graders of the department of nursing at two universities located in U City and G City were selected as subjects. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression data were analyzed with the SPSS 21.0 program. As a result of the study, positive psychological capital had a positive correlation with career identity, and clinical practice stress had a negative correlation with career identity. The factors influencing career identity were clinical practice stress, major satisfaction, positive psychological capital, and gender, and the explanatory power was 31%.

The data was analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression using SPSS 22.0. Nursing professionalism was significantly correlated with clinical practice stress(r=-.151, p=.039). In terms of the factors that influenced the nursing professionalism, the coefficient of determination of satisfaction in major was 5.2%(β=-.24, p=.001), and that of stress from the clinical practice was 3.0%(β=-.17, p=.015), which explains a total of 8.2%. Major satisfaction was the most influential factor predicting greater nursing professionalism.

Data were collected through self reported structured questionnaire from 198 nursing students using convenient sampling methods from September 19, 2016 to October 10, 2016. Stepwise regression showed that emotional labor had the greatest effect on clinical practice stress(${\beta}=0.356$, p<.001), followed by nursing professionalism and communication competence. These variables together explained 25.4% of the clinical practice stress in nursing students(F=23.34, p<.001). In conclusion, strategies for reducing emotional labor and for improving nursing students' nursing professionalism and communication competence should be developed to reduce clinical practice stress of nursing students.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing maladaptive perfectionism, self-leadership, and social support on nursing students' clinical practice stress. Participants were 150 nursing students who were enrolled at four universities in Chungcheongbukdo. Data were collected using questionnaire by from 03 to 30 November, 2022. The measurement tools consisted of the Almost Perfect Scale-Revised, Self Leadership Questionnaire-Revidsed, Scale of Social Support, and Clinical Practice Stress Scale-Revised. Results revealed that higher levels of maladaptive perfectionism were associated with increased clinical practice stress. Decreased self-leadership, satisfaction with nursing major, number of clinical practice in other regions, and social support was also associated with increased clinical practice stress. Findings indicate that specific characteristics such as maladaptive perfectionism and decrease of social support can lead to increase clinical practice stress. In this paper, we propose that active considerations for these psychological characteristics are important when reducing clinical practice stress for nursing students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of emotional regulation between clinical practice stress and nursing professionalism in nursing students. Participants were 192 nursing students and data were collected from September to November, 2015. This study has shown that nursing professionalism is negatively associated with clinical practice stress (r=-.40, p<.001) and positively associated with emotional regulation (r=.55, p<.001). In addition, a negative correlation has been found significant between emotional regulation and clinical practice stress (r=-.20, p<.001). In a final model of hierarchial multiple regression, professor support (${\beta}=.19$, p<.01), satisfaction with nursing as a major (${\beta}=.14$, p<.05), clinical practice stress (${\beta}=-.19$, p<.01) and emotional regulation (${\beta}=.32$, p <.001) were associated with nursing professionalism. In this study, we also have shown that emotional regulation does not play a moderating role on the relationship between clinical practice stress and nursing professionalism. The results of this study suggests that, in order to improve nursing professionalism, it is important to promote support system, develop clinical-practice-stress-relief programs, and enhance emotional regulation training for nursing students.
