Abstract:
Objective:To explore the current status of undergraduate nursing students' professional self-efficacy, and analyze the influence of uncertainty stress on nursing students' professional self-efficacy.Methods:From April 10 to 17, 2020, the cluster convenience sampling was used to select 1 526 nursing undergraduates from four universities in Zhejiang Province as the research object. The cross-sectional survey was conducted with the General Information Questionnaire for Nursing Students, Professional Self-efficacy Questionnaire for Nurse Students (PSQNS) and the Uncertain Stress Questionnaire. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of professional self-efficacy of nursing students. A total of 1 526 questionnaires were issued, and 1 474 valid questionnaires were returned with the effective response rate of 96.6%.Results:Among 1 474 undergraduate nursing students, the total PSQNS score was (91.10±14.11) , and the item average score was (3.37±0.52) , and the score rate was 67.48%, which was in the middle level. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the preference for the nursing major, uncertainty stress, academic achievement in school, reasons for choosing the nursing major, and family economic status were the influencing factors of professional self-efficacy of undergraduate nursing students with statistical differences ( P<0.05) , which could explain 33.4% of the variation. Conclusions:The professional self-efficacy of undergraduate nursing students needs to be improved. Nursing educators can improve their professional self-efficacy by reducing the uncertainty stress of nursing students.
