Abstract

Scopo. Esplorare il livello di soddisfazione e l'esperienza di apprendimento clinico degli studenti in Ostetricia del primo anno di corso dopo il primo tirocinio clinico; analizzare l'associazione tra motivazione individuale e soddisfazione complessiva degli studenti.

Metodo. Lo studio, trasversale multicentrico, è stato condotto in quattro sedi universitarie italiane del Corso di Laurea in Ostetricia. Un campione di convenienza di 61 studenti ha compilato la versione italiana del questionario "Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and plus Nurse Teacher (CLES+T) scale" al termine del primo tirocinio clinico.

Risultati. I punteggi medi assegnati alle dimensioni della scala variano da 3.53 (clima di apprendimento) a 3.08 (relazione di tutorato). Gli studenti (68.9%) sono complessivamente soddisfatti della propria esperienza di tirocinio. Rispetto alla motivazione individuale, 27 studenti (44.3%) erano motivati all'inizio del tirocinio e 31 studenti (50.8%) altamente motivati. Coloro che hanno dichiarato di essere maggiormente motivati all'inizio del tirocinio manifestano anche un livello di soddisfazione superiore (χ2=11.712, p=0.019).

Conclusioni. I risultati di questo studio contribuiscono ad ampliare le conoscenze sulla prima esperienza di tirocinio clinico degli studenti in Ostetricia. Inoltre, i risultati hanno evidenziato un'associazione tra motivazione iniziale degli studenti e soddisfazione che dovrebbe essere approfondita attraverso ulteriori studi multicentrici.

Midwifery students' satisfaction and perception of their first clinical placement: multicentre observational study

Aim. To explore the first year midwifery students' clinical learning experience and satisfaction; to analyse the association between students' satisfaction and individual motivation.

Method. The multicentre cross-sectional study was carried out in four Italian midwifery degree courses. A convenience sample of 61 students filled out the Italian version of the "Clinical Learning Environment and Supervision plus Nurse Teacher (CLES+T) scale" after the conclusion of their first clinical placement.

Results. The mean values of the main sub-dimensions of CLES+T varied from 3.53 (pedagogical atmosphere) to 3.08 (supervisory relationship). Students (68.9%) were mainly satisfied with their clinical placement. With regard to individual motivation, 27 students (44.3%) were motivated at the beginning of the clinical placement, and 31 students (50.8%) were highly motivated. Highly motivated students showed higher satisfaction levels (χ2 = 11,712, p = 0.019).

Conclusions. The findings expand knowledge on the first year midwifery students' clinical learning experience Moreover, the results showed an association between initial student motivation and satisfaction that should be investigated through further multicenter studies.

Keywords: midwifery, clinical learning environment, clinical placement, personal satisfaction.
