Abstract

Background & Objective: SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING readiness scale (SLRS) proposed by Fisher et al. (2001) is a self-evaluation tool containing 50 questions. The aim of the present study was to standardize SLRS for use among Nursing and Midwifery students.Methods: The statistical population of this descriptive psychometric study included all undergraduate STUDENTS OF NURSING AND MIDWIFERY of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences (N=550). Study samples were 224 students (27% males and 73% females). The research instrument was SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING readiness scale. Validity was confirmed by determining content validity and construct validity (exploratory factor analysis) and reliability was confirmed by calculating the coefficient of internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha).Results: Three factors of self-management, willingness to learn, and self-control were extracted from the SLRS that could explain 34.5% of the total variance. Cronbach’s alpha for the entire questionnaire and the mentioned factors were respectively 0.92, 0.88, 0.82, and 0.79. The t-test results showed no significant difference between male and female students in regard to the total score. In addition, multi-variant ANOVA demonstrated no significant difference between male and female students in regard to SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING factors. Mean and standard deviation of self-directing for all students were 176.99 and 25.41, respectively.Conclusion: Results showed that SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING readiness scale has the required validity and reliability to identify SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING capabilities in Nursing and Midwifery students.
