A retrospective correlational study was conducted at a state-supported bachelor's degree nursing program to determine variables that predict success on the National Council Licensure Examination-Registered Nurse (NCLEX-RN). Data were collected from 1985 through 1988 on a sample of 298 students. The independent variables studied were: grade point average (GPA) overall, GPA in the major, GPA in science, Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) verbal and quantitative scores, National League for Nursing (NLN) Comprehensive Baccalaureate Achievement Test scores, and Mosby Assess Test scores. The outcome variable was the NCLEX-RN. Pearson correlations indicated the Mosby Assess Test, overall GPA and GPA in the major, NLN Achievement Test, and SAT verbal to be of moderate predictive value. Multiple regression analysis indicated that the most useful combination of predictors was the Mosby Assess Test, SAT verbal, and overall GPA. The results support the value of a program at this school designed to increase students' verbal abilities.
在一个由州政府资助的护理学学士学位项目中进行了一项回顾性相关性研究，以确定能够预测全国护士执照考试 - 注册护士（NCLEX - RN）成绩的变量。在1985年至1988年期间，从298名学生的样本中收集了数据。所研究的自变量包括：总体平均绩点（GPA）、专业平均绩点、理科平均绩点、学术能力评估测试（SAT）的语言和数学成绩、全国护理联盟（NLN）综合学士学位成就测试成绩以及莫斯比评估测试成绩。结果变量是NCLEX - RN成绩。皮尔逊相关性分析表明，莫斯比评估测试、总体平均绩点和专业平均绩点、NLN成就测试以及SAT语言成绩具有中等预测价值。多元回归分析表明，最有效的预测变量组合是莫斯比评估测试、SAT语言成绩和总体平均绩点。研究结果支持了该校一项旨在提高学生语言能力的项目的价值。
