A 5-year study of graduates' performance on NCLEX-RN was conducted using data from July 1988 through February 1994. This time frame related to the "new" test plan introduced in 1988 with pass/fail results for NCLEX analysis. Using a quota sampling technique of 188 graduates, selected admission and curriculum variables and National League for Nursing (NLN) Comprehensive Achievement Test scores were studied in relationship to NCLEX-RN examination results. The strongest indicators of success were SAT verbal scores, nursing grade point average, and NLN Comprehensive Achievement Test scores. In addition, logistic regression analyses identified three nursing courses in combination with the NLN Comprehensive Achievement Test score as a strong model for prediction. Even though pass/fail data limit statistical analyses, the predictor variables were strong at P = 0.0001. These findings are consistent with prior studies.
利用1988年7月至1994年2月的数据，对毕业生在NCLEX-RN考试中的表现进行了一项为期5年的研究。这个时间框架与1988年推出的“新”考试计划相关，该计划用于分析NCLEX考试的通过/未通过结果。采用配额抽样技术选取了188名毕业生，研究了所选的入学和课程变量以及全国护理联盟（NLN）综合成就测试成绩与NCLEX-RN考试结果之间的关系。成功的最强指标是SAT语文成绩、护理平均绩点和NLN综合成就测试成绩。此外，逻辑回归分析确定，三门护理课程与NLN综合成就测试成绩相结合是一个强大的预测模型。尽管通过/未通过数据限制了统计分析，但预测变量在P = 0.0001时表现强劲。这些发现与先前的研究一致。
