Objective To explore the personality characteristics of nursing undergraduates and relation to academic achievement in Liaoning Province by cluster analysis,and provide reference for promoting the development of students'personality and improving the level of academic achievement.Methods From January to April 2023,a total of 517 nursing undergraduates were selected by cluster sampling from a medical college in Liaoning Province as the research subjects.They were assessed by general information survey,Chinese big five personality inventory brief version(CBF-PI-B)and academic achievement scale of college students(AASCS).Cluster analysis,chi square test,analysis of variance,and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the relationship between personality type and academic achievement of nursing undergraduates.Results Among nursing undergraduates in Liaoning Province,there were three personality types including psychological resilience(114 cases,accounting for 22.05％),uncontrolled(192 cases,accounting for 37.14％)and over-controlled(211 cases,accounting for 40.81％),and the differences in CBF-P1-B scores of each subscale were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Students with psychological resilience had the highest score of academic achievement[(78.05±7.91)points],and followed by those with over-controlled[(68.80±6.53)points]and uncontrolled[(61.08±8.23)points].Conclusion The personality types of nursing undergraduates in Liaoning Province are psychological resilient,uncontrolled,and over-controlled.The personality types can predict the levels of academic achievement.Therefore,it should pay more attention to the cultivation and improvement of personality in order to improve the level of academic achievement.
