Özet

Background: Nursing is a profession based on theo-retical knowledge and practice, and the clinical decision -making process is important. Many factors affect the fear of negative evaluation, and fear of a negative evaluation is a potential variable that can affect clinical decision-making. Method: This descriptive cross-sectional study included undergraduate nursing students (n = 283). Results: Nursing students'fear of a negative evaluation and clinical decision -making scale scores were 31.92 & PLUSMN; 08.51 and 149.18 & PLUSMN; 13.67, respectively. No significant relationship was identified be-tween the scores (p > .05). Conclusion: The fear of a nega-tive evaluation was not associated with nursing students' perceptions of clinical decision-making. To reduce nurs-ing students' fear of a negative evaluation and improve their clinical decision-making ability, appropriate train-ing programs should be developed and implemented by nursing educators and administrators.
