The high level of psychological resilience, self-confidence and problem solving skills of midwife candidates play an important role in increasing the quality of health care and in fulfilling their responsibilities towards patients.
This study was conducted to investigate the psychological resilience, self-confidence and problem-solving skills of midwife candidates.
It is a convenience descriptive quantitative study.
Students who study at Health Sciences Faculty in Turkey's Central Anatolia Region.
Midwife candidates (N = 270).
In collection of data, the Personal Information Form, Psychological Resilience Scale for Adults (PRSA), Self-Confidence Scale (SCS), and Problem Solving Inventory (PSI) were used.
There was a negatively moderate-level significant relationship between the Problem Solving Inventory scores and the Psychological Resilience Scale for Adults scores (r = -0.619; p = 0.000), and between Self-Confidence Scale scores (r = -0.524; p = 0.000). There was a positively moderate-level significant relationship between the Psychological Resilience Scale for Adults scores and the Self-Confidence Scale scores (r = 0.583; p = 0.000). There was a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between the Problem Solving Inventory and the Psychological Resilience Scale for Adults scores according to getting support in a difficult situation.
As psychological resilience and self-confidence levels increase, problem-solving skills increase; additionally, as self-confidence increases, psychological resilience increases too. Psychological resilience, self-confidence, and problem-solving skills of midwife candidates in their first-year of studies are higher than those who are in their fourth year. Self-confidence and psychological resilience of midwife candidates aged between 17 and 21, self-confidence and problem solving skills of residents of city centers, psychological resilience of those who perceive their monthly income as sufficient are high. Psychological resilience and problem-solving skills for midwife candidates who receive social support are also high. The fact that levels of self-confidence, problem-solving skills and psychological resilience of fourth-year students are found to be low presents a situation that should be taken into consideration.
助产士候选人的高心理弹性、自信和解决问题的能力在提高医疗保健质量和履行对患者的责任方面发挥着重要作用。
本研究旨在调查助产士候选人的心理弹性、自信和解决问题的能力。
这是一项便利的描述性定量研究。
在土耳其中安纳托利亚地区卫生科学学院学习的学生。
助产士候选人（N=270）。
在数据收集过程中，使用了个人信息表、成人心理弹性量表（PRSA）、自信量表（SCS）和问题解决量表（PSI）。
问题解决量表得分与成人心理弹性量表得分呈负中度显著相关（r=-0.619；p=0.000），与自信量表得分呈负中度显著相关（r=-0.524；p=0.000）。成人心理弹性量表得分与自信量表得分呈正中度显著相关（r=0.583；p=0.000）。在困难情况下获得支持方面，问题解决量表和成人心理弹性量表得分存在统计学显著差异（p<0.05）。
随着心理弹性和自信水平的提高，解决问题的能力也会提高；此外，随着自信的提高，心理弹性也会提高。在研究的第一年，助产士候选人的心理弹性、自信和解决问题的能力高于第四年的学生。17 至 21 岁的助产士候选人的自信和心理弹性、市中心居民的自信和解决问题的技能、认为自己每月收入充足的人的心理弹性较高。获得社会支持的助产士候选人的心理弹性和解决问题的能力也较高。第四年学生的自信、解决问题的能力和心理弹性水平较低，这是一个需要考虑的情况。
