    Students who completed nursing programs on schedule were more mature, achievement-oriented, responsible, and accepting than those who dropped out. These non-intellective traits predict academic success in associate degree nursing education.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Psychology
    • Student Success

    Background:

    • Non-intellective characteristics are crucial for academic success.
    • Identifying predictors of success in nursing programs is essential for student retention.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine if non-intellective characteristics at program entry predict completion of associate degree nursing programs.
    • To compare personality and attitudinal differences between nursing program graduates and dropouts.

    Main Methods:

    • Administered a comprehensive battery of non-intellective tests to 112 students entering associate degree nursing programs.
    • Analyzed entrance data of 73 graduates and 32 dropouts after two years.
    • Excluded 7 students who remained but had not completed requirements.

    Main Results:

    • Students who completed the program on schedule were significantly older, married, more achievement-oriented, responsible, and self-controlled at entry compared to dropouts.
    • Successful students exhibited more accepting and nonjudgmental attitudes toward others.
    • Significant differences in non-intellective characteristics were found between graduates and dropouts.

    Conclusions:

    • Mature, responsible, achievement-oriented students with positive interpersonal attitudes are more likely to complete associate degree nursing programs.
    • Non-intellective factors are important predictors of success in nursing education.
    • These findings can inform student selection and support strategies in nursing programs.
