title: Learning outcomes of integrative preceptorships.
abstract: The purpose of this study was to identify and compare nursing faculty, preceptor, and student perceptions of ideal and actual learning outcomes of integrative preceptorships for senior generic baccalaureate nursing students. The sample included senior generic baccalaureate nursing students involved in preceptorships, their registered nurse preceptors, and the faculty responsible for the experiences. Findings revealed areas of significant differences between the preceptors' and the other two groups' perceptions of ideal and actual learning outcomes. When faculty, preceptor, and student perceptions of ideal learning outcomes were compared with their perceptions of what was actually achieved through the experience, significant differences emerged for all three groups.
