Abstract:
Objective To investigate baccalaureate nursing students'subjective well-being before clinical practice and discuss the influential factors in order to help students build a positive state of mind to participate in the clinical practice.Methods The convenience sample consisted of 144 baccalaureate nursing students who would take part in clinical practice and the General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) and General Well-being Schedule (GWB) were adopted.Results The baccalaureate nursing students' subjective well-being was generally at a little higher level than the intermediate.Among the dimensions,the scores of life satisfaction,positive affect and negative affect were (4.69 ± 0.61 ),(4.12 ± 1.13 ) and (2.44 ± 0.89 ),respectively.Among the students,those who were the only child in the family or who were excellent in their study had higher subjective well-beings,with ( 24.98 ± 5.64 ) and ( 24.44 ± 4.40 ),respectively.The main influential factors included self-efficacy,self-esteem and the number of children in the family.Conclusions Nursing educators and psychologists should attach importance to baccalaureate nursing students' subjective well-being before clinical practice.Self-efficacy and self-esteem can obviously predict the change of subjective well-being.
