“…However, although the literature has addressed the clinical question of the relationship of high self-efficacy as a predictive characteristic of staff RNs and student nurses in specific clinical situations (Chang & Crowe, 2011;Cheraghi et al, 2009;Lee & Ko, 2010;Manojlovich, 2005aManojlovich, , 2005bTyler et al, 2012), with additional pressure for non-baccalaureateprepared RNs to pursue higher educational preparation, it is not clear how self-efficacy affects their success. A strong sense of self-efficacy allows for perseverance with goals despite obstacles along the way.…”

The last decade has brought about a synergy of influences for registered nurses to advance their academic preparation. Literature indicates that there is correlation between self-efficacy and goal establishment and success. The purpose of this project was to evaluate the relationship between self-efficacy and advancing academic aspirations of registered nurses. Findings indicated that there was a trend toward a difference in the self-efficacy of nurses who began their career with a diploma or associate degree and went on for academic advancement and those who did not.

“…The difficulties in defining competency and determining assessment criteria are still discussed in the literature. For example, some have developed assessment tools by reviewing the literature and interviewing experts, 15 carrying out focus group, 16 amending existing instrument 17 to generate indicators fitting with the goals of each institute. 12,13 Furthermore, the assessment data for competency assessment usually collected from only single source were considered too subjective, such as self-evaluation by students or rating by teachers.…”

Assessing the core competencies of nursing students provides information about students' learning outcomes for educational evaluation and improvement. The aim of this study was to develop the Nursing Students Core Competencies scale to measure 8 core competencies of nursing students in Taiwan. The study employed factor analysis and Mokken scaling analysis for psychometric testing of this instrument between a group of nursing graduates and their evaluators. The results indicated that the Nursing Students Core Competencies scale has demonstrated evidence of internal consistency, structural validity, unidimensionality, and a hierarchy of items for students' self-assessment and instructor's rating. The use of Mokken scaling analysis extends the knowledge of developing competence assessment tools; it can be used to reveal the domains or items of competency nursing students perceive that are easy or difficult, providing information for curricular design.

“…SE has also been found to predict clinical performance in nursing students. 18 In the field of midwifery, Jordan and Farley 19 found that SE can be enhanced in recent midwife graduates by appropriate instruction. Nevertheless, because SE is domain-specific, any assessment should focus on the specific task being assessed.…”
