Abstract:
There is a lack of literature regarding how prelicensure employment affects self-efficacy in nursing practice. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among prelicensure employment and self-efficacy in nursing practice of senior student nurses. Healthcare experience was identified as the best predictor of positive self-efficacy in managing an assignment of three and four patients. Findings of this study provide insight for providing orientation for newly licensed nurses regarding their readiness to practice.
