Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the importance of characteristics of an effective clinical instructor, there are many deficiencies in the performance of instructors. The present study was conducted with an aim to investigate the relationship between clinical education behaviours of nursing instructors and learning perceptions of students in Abadan University of Medical Sciences in 2015. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study as a cross-sectional study was conducted with participation of 113 nursing students of Abadan University of Medical Sciences. The sample size was calculated based on previous studies. The data collecting tool in this study were three part questionnaire including demographic questionnaire, Nursing Clinical Teaching Evaluating Inventory (NCTEI) and Questionnaire of Impact on learning. Data was analysed with SPSS 19 software using Descriptive Statistics, Correlation Coefficient and Chi-square at a 95% confidence level. RESULTS The mean age of participants was 21.62 ± 3.62 years. From the viewpoint of nursing students in the areas of clinical behaviours of instructors, the two domains of interpersonal communication (mean= 5.14) and personality characteristics (mean= 5.09) were the most important domains respectively. Mean score of behaviours of instructors in the group with a positive clinical experience was higher than the group without positive clinical experience. Most students (60.5%) were in group with the positive clinical experience. CONCLUSION We concluded that although the educational behaviours of instructors in some areas evaluated as desirable and in some areas at low levels from students’ perspectives, but students have assessed the clinical behaviour of instructors as positive based on their clinical experiences. This means that whatever the clinical behaviour of instructors in the internship is more favourable, equally students’ learning experiences in the clinical setting will be enhanced.
