We analyzed the impact of mind mapping on the critical thinking ability of clinical nursing students and its use as a teaching application. This study provides reference information for clinical teaching. Methods: We selected 64 nursing students using convenience sampling. Participants received basic knowledge training of mind mapping in three sessions during the intervention. Questionnaires on critical thinking ability were designed by the researchers, adopting the Chinese version of the Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory. Data collected using the questionnaires included learning strategy function and clinical skill improvement with mind mapping, as well as students' degree of adaptability to mind mapping. Participants' critical thinking ability before and after the intervention was analyzed using a paired t-test. Results: The critical thinking inclination of nursing students was significantly improved after intervention compared with that before the intervention (t ¼ À0.74). The four dimensions of open-mindedness, inquisitiveness, cognitive maturity, and systematicity among nursing students after the intervention were also significantly improved compared with before the intervention. Conclusion: Mind mapping is conducive to improving the critical thinking ability of clinical nursing students.

“…The results of many studies show that critical thinking, as a valid method in thinking and tendency toward critical thinking plays an important role in personal and social situations; as many studies emphasize a significant relationship between the tendency toward critical thinking, academic achievement, problem-solving skills, and caring behaviors (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21). Despite the great importance of critical thinking in decision-making and the improvement of nurses' clinical competence, the researchers stated that little attention is paid to the development and promotion of critical thinking in nursing (22).…”

Background:The lack of clinical competence in nurses leads to problems in providing nursing services. Studies indicate that nurses lacking the required skills can endanger the public health in medical centers. Critical thinking is a factor that can affect nurses' clinical competence. Objectives: The current study aimed at investigating the relationship between critical thinking and clinical competence in nurses. Methods: The current descriptive-analytical and cross sectional study was conducted on 120 nurses selected by random sampling method. Data collection tools included the California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CCTDI), as well as clinical competence and demographic information questionnaires. Data were analyzed with SPSS using Pearson correlation coefficient, linear regression, and t-test. Results: Pearson correlation test showed a positive correlation between the total scores of critical thinking and clinical competence. Based on the results of the linear regression analysis, the tendency toward critical thinking could predict 28.4% of the clinical competence. The nurses mean CCTDI scores were at the positive level and their mean clinical competence scores were at the average level. Conclusions: According to the obtained results, nursing authorities can organize practical workshops on the development of critical thinking of clinical nurses as one of the most important and operational strategies to improve nursing clinical competence and, ultimately, move towards optimal care.

“…However, good interpretive ability did not show statistically significant ability in critical thinking. Jeong (2015) found that critical thinking disposition was positively correlated with perspective taking (r=0.482, p<0.001), fantasy (r=0.227, p<0.001), and empathic concern (r=0.195, p=0.002) 17 . Woo & Tak, (2015) illustrated that critical thinking disposition positively correlates with caring perception (r=0.174, p=0.024) and professional self-concept (r=0.343, p=0.022) 18 .…”

Introduction: Initiation of patient management and prediction of patient prognosis depend on investigation reports. Interpretive ability of common blood investigations demands high level of critical thinking and it is a less focused in nursing education. Therefore, this study aimed at identifying the relationship between interpretive ability of common hematological tests and critical thinking ability among nursing students. Methods: The study design adopted was cross sectional descriptive survey. It was conducted among 140 nursing students studying in third and fourth year of Bachelor of Science (B. Sc.) nursing. The data was collected using demographic tool, interpretive exercises and Yoon's Critical Thinking Disposition. Results: The median of interpretive ability score on common blood investigations was 13 14). The mean critical thinking score of nursing students was 96 (SD 9.5). Analysis of the relationship between interpretive ability on common blood investigations and critical thinking ability revealed a weak positive correlation which was statistically not significant (r=0.141, p=0.096). There was a significant relationship between interpretive ability and intellectual eagerness (r=0.181, p=0.032) and intellectual fairness (r=0.174, p=0.039). There was a significant association between interpretive ability and academic performance of the students in the university examinations (F=4.5, p=0.012). Interpretive exercises stimulate critical thinking among students. Conclusion:The students with high intellectual curiosity and intellectual fairness have good interpretive ability, and good academic performance improves ability to interpret common haematological tests.
