[Relation between self-evaluation of skills and learning strategy in the acquisition of the hygienic nursing skills].
The purpose of this study is to investigate which learning strategies nursing students use to acquire the nursing skills of cleanliness. The investigation of 71 first-year nursing students consists of self-evaluation of shampooing and bed-bath/foot-bath/changing the night-clothes (19 questions each) and learning strategies (15 questions). To compare the difference between 2 groups in the acquisition of learning strategies, we used the Mann-Whitney U test to calculate the average evaluation of each skill, the self-evaluation, and the total scores of each of cognitive domain, psychomotor domain and affective domain, categorizing the students into higher evaluation and lower evaluation. The recovery rate of questionnaires was 81.7%. The psychomotor domain in the self-evaluation was high, but the cognitive domain and affective domain were low. As for the learning strategies used, the higher evaluation group in total self-evaluation used lectures and prior learning and nursing practice (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Moreover, the higher evaluation group of the cognitive domain used explanations by the teacher in lectures and practice, and the higher evaluation group of the psychomotor domain used explanations of basic activity in lectures and training and guidance in the practice room (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Also, the higher evaluation group of the affective domain didn't use learning strategies to acquire skills of the affective domain. In the future, it is necessary to consider learning strategies in acquiring the affective skills.
