“…There are many factors influencing hand hygiene behaviours. Among these factors can be cited gender differences, role model behaviours, handwashing habits picked up throughout childhood, the availability of proper handwashing facilities and revulsion (Paudel, Ghosh, & Adhikari, 2016; Schüttpelz‐Brauns, Obertacke, Kaden, & Hagl, 2015). There are few studies in the literature that point to gender differences as relates to hand hygiene.…”

As members of the healthcare team, nursing students assume a large part of the treatment and care of patients during their clinical practice, and therefore, they play a vital role in preventing pathogenic contamination and the spread of contagious diseases (Labrague, McEnroe-Petitte, Van de Mortel, & Nasirudeen, 2018). For this reason, nursing students should be provided with the skills to adopt effective handwashing habits, which would be an important step in the direction

Increasing healthcare workers' compliance with hand hygiene guidelines remains a challenge to the clinical community. In order to reduce healthcare-associated infections, it is important to educate student nurses to comply with the guidelines during clinical placements. Identifying student nurses' hand hygiene performance is the first step towards developing teaching methods to improve and sustain their overall and moment-specific compliance. As a measure to ensure student compliance during clinical placements, mentors should be aware of their influence on students' performance, act as hand hygiene ambassadors, encourage students to comply with established guidelines and provide regular feedback.

“… 9 Personality attributes have also been associated with medical students’ academic competencies other than test scores. 10 , 11 For example, loneliness or social isolation has been negatively correlated with medical students’ clinical competence, in particular their interpersonal relations and attitudes, during clerkships. 12 Students’ communication skills have correlated with personality characteristics of being extraverted and critical.…”

ObjectivesTo examine the relationship between students’ collaborative performance in a problem-based learning (PBL) environment and their personality traits.MethodsThis retrospective, cross-sectional study was conducted using student data of a PBL program between 2013 and 2014 at Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea. Eighty students were included in the study. Student data from the Temperament and Character Inventory were used as a measure of their personality traits. Peer evaluation scores during PBL were used as a measure of students’ collaborative performance.ResultsSimple regression analyses indicated that participation was negatively related to harm avoidance and positively related to persistence, whereas preparedness for the group work was negatively related to reward dependence. On multiple regression analyses, low reward dependence remained a significant predictor of preparedness. Grade-point average (GPA) was negatively associated with novelty seeking and cooperativeness and was positively associated with persistence.ConclusionMedical students who are less dependent on social reward are more likely to complete assigned independent work to prepare for the PBL tutorials. The findings of this study can help educators better understand and support medical students who are at risk of struggling in collaborative learning environments.
