Abstract
Background: Caring clinical instructors’ interaction with their nursing students in the
clinical practical setting causes them to perceive this clinical setting as stimulating, and a
challenge. Student nurses who feel cared for and valued are empowered to have self-confidence in
their clinical practical setting. Aim of this study: Was to assess caring behaviors of clinical
instructors and clinical practical setting as perceived by nursing students and its relation to their
self-confidence. Design: Cross sectional design was utilized to conduct this study. Setting: The
study was conducted at the Faculty of Nursing Benha University. Sampling: Simple random
sample of nursing students (322) in the second, third and fourth academic year. Tools of data
collection: Included three main tools; I: Caring behaviors questionnaire. II: Clinical practical
setting questionnaire and III: Students self-confidence scale. Results: 87.9% of nursing students
had high perception levels regarding total caring behaviors of clinical instructors. Also, 91.9% of
nursing students had high perception level regarding total clinical practical setting, and 89.8% of
them had high level of self-confidence. Conclusion: There were highly statistically significant
positive correlations between caring behaviors, clinical practical setting and self-confidence.
Recommendations: Establish an orientation program for preparation of newly appointed clinical
instructors about how to assess students' needs and evaluate students' self-confidence
continuously.
