The relationship between gender, educational background, and learning environment with nursing student’s anxiety

Abstract

Objectives: to identify variables associated with nursing students’ anxiety-related clinical practice. Methods: this study used a correlational quantitative descriptive design with the STROBE equator instrument. The population is 233 nursing students with a sample of 135. Data were collected from March to April 2022 using validated instruments. Results: the Chi-square test and the sig likelihood ratio on the gender, educational background, and learning environment is more than 0.05 so there is no significant relationship between the variables and student anxiety. Conclusions: students need to be prepared again before entering the practice field. Qualitative research is needed too.
