ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate and analyze the characteristics and stratified influencing factors of self-directed learning of nursing college students.Methods In November 2016,a total of 304 students from three nursing colleges in Sichuan province were investigated with self-rating scale of self-directedness learning (SRSSDL).304 copies of the questionnaires were issued and recovered.Using SPSS 13.0,the independent sample t test and variance analysis were used to compare the differences between groups.Pearson correlation test and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors.Results The average SRSSDL score of key undergraduate students of nursing college was (220.27 ± 30.16),the score of general undergraduate students was (212.37 ± 25.01),the score of Junior college students was (205.26 ± 29.84),The score difference has statistical significance (F=6.191,P=0.002).Students from key undergraduate had the highest self-directed learning ability,and students from general undergraduate and Junior college had the medium self-directed learning ability.The factors such as different levels,whether the one-child,self-study time every day,team learning experience affect students' self-directed learning ability.Conclusions We should create conditions for students to study independently,cultivate professional identity and independent spirit under the premise of clear educational objectives to improve their SDL ability.
