Relationship between Learning Self-Efficacy, Learning Satisfaction, and Transfer Motivation among Nursing Students: Focused on Integrated Simulation Practicum
Purpose: This study seeks to confirm the relationship between learning self-efficacy, learning satisfaction, and transfer motivation among nursing students who complete the integrated simulation practice class. Method: The data for the study were collected through self-report questionnaires administered to 4th year students and were analyzed using the SPSS 18.0 program. Results: The findings show that learning self-efficacy is 6.03±.69 (7 points), learning satisfaction is 4.23±.57 (5 points), and transfer motivation is 5.70±.90 (7 points). The transfer motivation has a positive correlation with both learning self-efficacy and learning satisfaction and learning self-efficacy has a positive correlation with learning satisfaction. The factors influencing the transfer motivation of nursing students are learning self-efficacy (β=.87, p<.001) and learning satisfaction (β=.24, p=.028), which together account for 61.9% of the transfer motivation. Conclusion: The results demonstrate that to enhance the transfer motivation for nursing students, it is necessary to develop a program and curriculum for increasing learning self-efficacy and learning satisfaction.
