dc.description.abstractObjective: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of pre-clinical structured empowerment education of intern nursing students on self-confidence and anxiety in clinical decision-making, pediatric clinical comfort and perceived anxiety, and perceived pediatric nursing competency. Material and Methods: A quasi-experimental study design was used. A total of 64 nursing students (experimental group = 32; comparison group = 32) participated in the study. Before the clinical practice, a program that consisted of six scenarios, whose learning goals were structured, and in which pediatric skills were supported, was applied to the intern students in the experimental group for two days. The data were collected using a Student Descriptive Information Form, the Nursing Anxiety and Self-Confidence with Clinical Decision-Making Scale, the Pediatric Nursing Competency Scale, and the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool, which were applied as a pretest and posttest. The mean pre-test and post-test scores of both groups were compared. Results: There was a difference in favor of the intervention group in the worry sub-dimension of the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the mean scores of experimental and control groups on the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool and the Nursing Anxiety and Self- Confidence with Clinical Decision-Making Scale (p>0.05). There was a significant difference between the mean scores of the experimental and control groups on the Pediatric Nursing Competency Scale in favor of the intervention group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Preclinical structured empowerment training; It was observed that it increased the pediatric nursing proficiency levels of the students, decreased the clinical anxiety of the students, and did not affect the self-confidence anxiety levels in clinical decision making.
