Spearman’s rho tested the correlation between variables.Results: The results indicated that self-directed learning readiness (rs=.360, p=.000), self-esteem (rs=.301, p=.000), and grit (rs=.186, p=.023) were significantly related to the academic performance of sophomore nursing students.Conclusion: psychological resources such as self-directed learning readiness, self-esteem, and grit contribute to students’ academic performance. Strategies that encourage self-directed learning, increase self-esteem, and cultivate grit are needed to support student's academic success in nursing school.

Abstract

Background: The global COVID-19 outbreak has affected all sectors of society. Nursing students were not exempted. This study examined COVID-19 anxiety syndrome among Filipino nursing students and whether significant differences existed according to gender. Methods: This cross-sectional study used the COVID-19 Anxiety Syndrome Scale (C-19ASS) as the primary tool for data collection. Significant gender differences were tested using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: Results showed that the composite score in the C-19ASS was 3.92 (SD=.69) indicating a moderate to a high level of anxiety syndrome features associated with COVID-19 among nursing students. The mean scores in the preservation and avoidance factors were 3.94 (SD=.76) and 3.88 (SD=.91), respectively. Female nursing students had a significantly higher (p=.004) COVID-19 anxiety syndrome compared to male nursing students. Conclusion: The global outbreak of COVID-19 brought about extraordinary anxiety syndrome and stressful situations among nursing students. Nursing students, particularly female students, may benefit from additional support and guidance during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Introduction: Research is one of the competencies expected of a beginning professional nurse. While research attitude has been widely explored among nursing students internationally, there is limited published research among nursing students in the Philippines. Objective: This study was conducted to find out the factors associated with attitude towards research among nursing students. Method: The design of this study cross-sectional with 79 undergraduate third-year nursing students in one higher education institution in the Philippines as participants. The Attitude Toward Research scale was the primary data collection tool. Differences in research attitude were tested using t-test and one-way ANOVA. Results: The results indicated that nursing students generally had positive attitude towards research. Graduates of public junior and senior high schools, those who had experience doing research in junior high school, and those who had presented in a research conference outside their school had significantly better research attitude. In addition, differences in research attitude were also noted based self-rated level of research knowledge, competence, and readiness. Conclusion: Type of high school, prior experience, knowledge, competence, and readiness in conducting research were significant factors influencing nursing students’ research attitude. Nursing schools should continue to raise and cultivate the positive attitude of students towards scientific investigation.
