Abstract

Decisions that the nurses taking during clinical care are affecting their effectiveness in clinical performance and can affect the patient's life and his medical experience. The present study aimed to provide a clinical decision-making model based on emotional intelligence with the assumption of self-efficacy and self-confidence beliefs in the Nursing staff of Rasht Hospital. The method of this descriptive-correlational study was relying on structural equation model. The statistical population of this study was nurses in the intensive care units of Rasht hospitals, which were selected by randomized cluster sampling method, and 364 people were selected by clinical decision-making questionnaire Laureria and Salalara (2002), Bradury and Erotic Elementary Questionnaire (2005), Self-efficacy Questionnaire in Clinical Performance and Partners (2009) and Sensor-Self-confidence and 1993) confidence questionnaire. Data analysis using structural equation modeling method showed that emotional intelligence affects the clinical decision making model of nurses (P <0.01, β = 0.57); Self-efficacy beliefs affect the clinical decision making model of nurses (P <0.01), β-300) and self-esteem on the clinical decision-making model of nurses (P <0.01, β = 241). Also, self-efficacy beliefs (p <0.01, β = 186) and self-confidence (P <0.01), β-108 = 2006 mediate the effect of emotional intelligence on clinical decision making model of nurses. It is suggested that in the formulation of curriculum, self-efficacy and self-confidence beliefs are considered as the facilitating facilitating agents and the clinical performance of nursing students.
