看護学生の社会人基礎力の経年的変化と影響を及ぼす経験要因

The purpose of this study was to elucidate how the basic social competency is developed by students in the school of nursing and to identify experiential factors that improved it. Questionnaires were carried out once a year for a four-year period and responses were consistently obtained from a total of 11 subjects. The Friedman test was used to analyze the scores that reflected the basic social competency. Text mining was used to identify experiential factors during the university life that improved the competency. Students in fourth-year exhibited the basic social competency that was significantly higher than those in second-year. Learning activities/practical exercises were associated with the abilities of problem-solving, logical analysis, and listening to others. It appeared that during the university life, students developed the basic social competency that enables them to gather practical experience, identify their own problems and deal with patients effectively.
