title: [Leadership and communication: development of a measurement tool for graduating nursing students].
abstract: Leadership and communication are themes of importance for the development of Nurse's work so that the upbringing of this professional needs to begin in the undergraduate course and continue through professional life. The present study aimed to identify the knowledge of students of the 4th year of the Nursing School of a public University about leadership na communication. In order to achieve this goal, the authors elaborated an instrument and submitted it to apparent and content validation, pilot test and statistic treatment. Data was collected through the application of the instrument to 67 students in October of 1998. The analysis of the results indicated that the students showed knowledge about leadership and communication, although they did not affirm that what they had learned it in the Undergraduate Course about it was enough.
