Abstract

Purpose
This study was conducted to identify the effect of verbal violence, clinical practice stress, and coping with stress on the major satisfaction in nursing students during clinical practice.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was used. A survey was conducted from May 3 to May 10, 2022, on 200 nursing students who were in their junior and seneior years at two universities in Gyeongsangbuk-do. Descriptive statistics, frequency analysis, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé’s test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and hierarchical regression analysis were employed to analyze the data.
Results
Major satisfaction was found to be significantly negatively correlated with verbal violence (r=-.30, p<.001) and clinical practice stress (r=-.15, p=.032) and to be positively correlated with coping with stress (r=.24, p<.001). Their satisfaction with clinical practice (β=.29, p=.037), verbal violence (β=-.23, p<.001), coping with stress (β=.16, p=.015), religion (β=.14, p=.041), and clinical practice stress (β=-.13, p=.048) explained 19.3% of the variance in nursing students’ major satisfaction during clinical practice.
Conclusion
A verbal violence and coping with stress program for nursing students should be developed to increase nursing students’ major satisfaction during clinical practice.
