“…Using the SDL process, the nursing students can review and improve their learning process [37]. Evidence suggests that SDL has a positive role in nursing education and is significantly associated with academic achievement [19], professional competence and communication self-efficacy [38], assertiveness and accountability [39], and clinical competencies [40]. Given the importance of SDL in nursing education, nursing educators should make an effort to persuade students to use SDL skills effectively.…”

Background. Self-directed learning plays an important role in nursing education and is associated with academic achievement, communication self-efficacy, assertiveness, responsibility, and students’ clinical competencies. This study was conducted to analyze the existing research on the level of self-directed learning in nursing students. Methods. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, all studies that had examined the level of self-directed learning in nursing students until March 2, 2020, were searched in Science Direct, Ovid, Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases. In the meta-analysis section, I2 index and the random effects model were used. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software (version 2) was used for data analysis. Results. The mean score of self-directed learning in 12 articles with 3830 samples was 156.73 ± 1.47 out of 200 (95% CI: 153.3–160.1). These scores were 153.50 ± 2.71 (95% CI: 148.18–158.82) and 154.67 ± 1.32 (95% CI: 157.50–159.32) in the male and female students, respectively. There was a significant relationship between self-directed learning and sample size, year of study, and semester ( p < 0.05 ). Conclusion. The mean self-directed learning in nursing students was at a moderate level, which does not seem to be sufficient. Given the positive role of self-directed learning in nursing education, it is essential that nursing professors teach self-directed learning skills to students via training courses.

Although applied self-efficacy research currently offers some promising avenues of study for Translatology (Jiménez Ivars and Pinazo Calatayud 2001;Atkinson 2012;Bolaños-Medina 2014), no specific translation self-efficacy scale (TSE) with adequate psychometric properties has been devised until now. The purpose of this study is, on the one hand, to develop a scale for assessing translators' self-efficacy following the recommended standard guidelines (Bandura 2006) and a rigorous statistical testing process which will allow us to determine its factor structure and psychometric properties in undergraduate students (n = 74). On the other hand, by doing so, we will also illustrate the process of developing psychometric instruments specifically designed for cognitive, empirical-experimental research in Translatology, in order to promote more efforts in this direction within our discipline. A conceptual analysis of the relevant domain of functioning was performed and a preliminary pool of 52 items was initially suggested, and later refined into 20. After conducting exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, descriptive statistics and distributions of the items were obtained. Next, the internal consistency and the concurrent validity of TSE's five subscales were evaluated. The results indicate that TSE shows adequate levels of reliability and validity, and support its five-factor structure.

“…Self-training allows nursing students to review and improve the learning process (Lee et al, 2020;Nazarianpirdosti et al, 2021). Evidence also argues that it is significantly associated with academic success (Avdal, 2013), and with the development of professional skills (Yang & Park, 2004;Song et al, 2015), such as critical thinking, problem solving, communication , autonomy, time management, responsibility and assertiveness (Levett-Jones, 2005;Cadorin et al, 2017;Ertuğ & Faydali, 2018;Song et al, 2021;Hwang & Oh, 2021).…”
