Abstract:
Caring is considered a vital aspect of nursing. This study explored Jordanian nursing students' perceptions of their clinical instructors' caring behaviors. A cross-sectional approach was taken. Data were collected from 212 nursing students using the Nursing Students' Perceptions of Instructor Caring instrument developed by Wade and Kasper. Nursing students were found to have generally positive responses toward their clinical instructors, perceiving them as caring rather than uncaring. Clinical instructors' caring behaviors had a positive impact on nursing students' caring behaviors.
