Methods: A total of 158 students were recruited from two nursing colleges in B metropolitan city. Data were collected by means of self-reported questionnaires from December 3-31, 2018 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple linear regression with SPSS 21.0. Results: Metacognition, communication skills, and confidence in the performance of core basic nursing skills were higher than normal and the relationship between the variables metacognition (r=.69, p=<.001), communication skills (r=.69, p=<.001), and confidence in the performance of core basic nursing skills (r=.59, p=<.001) were highly positively correlated with clinical performance. Factors influencing these three variables accounted for 64.4% of clinical competency. Conclusion: Further research on the development of the curriculum and intervention program, and the verification of the effect are needed.

Objective: Nursing professional self-concept is nurses' internalized values and beliefs and the manner they affect their thoughts and behavior. The questions of how nursing students see themselves and what qualities interest them are of great importance. The present study aims to determine the correlation between clinical performance and nursing students’ professional self-concept. Materials and Method: The present cross-sectional-analytical study was conducted on 86 nursing students at Jahrom universities of medical sciences. The study data were collected using a questionnaire which consisted of 6-Dimension Scale of Nurse Performance (6-DSNP) and Nurse Self-Concept Questionnaire (NSCQ). The data analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The nursing students’ clinical performance and professional self-concept scores were 2.94±1.45 and 5.46±1.11. Pearson correlation coefficient revealed a significant correlation between the students’ clinical performance and professional self-concept. Total 6-DSNP score were significantly related to two of the dimensions of NSCQ: Nursing care and communication (p<0.05). There was a relationship between academic year and professional self-concept total score (p=0.01, r= 0.26). Conclusion: The results of the study show that clinical performance and professional self-concept are related. These findings can be helpful to teachers, authorities at nursing colleges, and nursing managers. Applying techniques that will enhance students' professional self-concept are essential to improving their clinical performance.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.15(1) 2016 p.57-61
