Effect of perceived stress on independent learning ability of nursing undergraduates:the chain mediating role of psychological capital and self-control
Objective To explore the relationship between the perceived stress and the independent learning ability of nursing undergraduates,to establish a chain mediation model to investigate the role of psychological capital and self-control in the relationship between the two,aiming to provide a new direction for nursing educators to improve the independent learning ability of nursing undergraduates.Methods Using the convenient sampling method,a total of 913 nursing undergraduates from 10 universities in Shaanxi Province were selected as research objects from February to March 2023.Perceived Stress Scale(PSS),Positive Psychological Capital Questionnaire(PPQ),Self-control Scale(SCS)and Self-directed Learning Ability Scale(SLAS)were used to investigate the nursing undergraduates.Results A total of 913 questionnaires were sent out in this study,and 900 were effectively collected,with an effective recovery rate of 98.58％(900/913).The total SLAS score of 900 nursing undergraduates was(87.12±9.20).The perception of stress among undergraduate nursing students could directly predict their self-directed learning ability negatively(P＜0.01),or indirectly affected their self-learning ability through psychological capital and self-control(P＜0.05).Psychological capital(indirect effect value=-0.160)and self-control(indirect effect value=-0.106)played a mediating role between stress perception and self-directed learning ability,and the mediating effect accounted for 38.55％and 25.54％,respectively.Moreover,psychological capital and self-control also played a chain mediating role(indirect effect value=-0.053),and the proportion of chain mediated effect was 12.77％.Conclusions Perceived stress,psychological capital and self-control are important influencing factors on the self-directed learning ability of nursing undergraduate students.Perceived stress not only directly affects the self-directed learning ability of nursing undergraduate students,but also indirectly affects their self-directed learning ability through the chain mediation effect of psychological capital and self-control.
