This book was released on 2017 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In higher education nursing programs, there are continued questions regarding admission assessment requirements and their ability to predict success for nursing students. This concept is especially true for accelerated second-degree baccalaureate nursing programs. More research is needed on these newer programs. One of the more common admission criteria for these programs is the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS). Researchers need to examine the predictability of the TEAS composite and categorical scores to determine if a significant correlation exists between how one scores on the TEAS and level of success in nursing school. In this research proposal, success is defined as completion of the nursing curriculum and also as passage of the National Council Licensure Exam for registered nurses (NCLEX-RN) on the first attempt.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Current trends in healthcare have impacted every level of nursing education. Challenges to nurse educators to increase the level of education for all nurses have resulted in an increase in the number of students applying to baccalaureate nursing programs. With this increase in the number of applicants, schools of nursing continue to search for admission criteria that allow admission of the students who are most likely to successfully complete the program. The purpose of this study was to determine if the TEAS V, given as part of the admission process to the school of nursing, is predictive of completion of the BSN nursing program. The sample consisted of 93 nursing students (19-59 years old) at a private university in the southeastern United States. A correlational, retrospective review of the records was used to collect data for the study. Program completion was investigated to determine if there was a relationship to age, gender, TEAS V composite score, TEAS V subject content scores or pre-nursing GPA. The results of data analysis revealed a statistically significant relationship between age and program completion. The older the student, the more likely the student is to complete the BSN program. The TEAS V composite score, TEAS V reading score and the TEAS V science score were also identified to have statistically significant relationships with program completion. The results of the study are limited to the student population at the study school. Recommendations include replication of the study with a different student population and a study of the relationship between the TEAS V composite score, reading score and science score with a lager sample size. As nurse educators continue to search for appropriate admission criteria for the BSN program, the TEAS V composite score may be a valid tool to identify students who are most likely to successfully complete the BSN program"-- Abstract from thesis.

Download or read book An Examination of the Presence of a Correlation Between the ATI Test of Academic Skills TEAS Sub Score of Reading Comprehension and Respiratory Therapist Student Academic Success written by Kim Welborn and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allied Health administrators are exploring interventions to increase student retention rates in order to decrease college costs, improve faculty effort and time developing courses, decrease administrative resources, and to continue their accreditation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not there was a correlation between the ATI Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) reading comprehension scores, given for admittance to Wallace Community College Respiratory Therapist Program (RPT) students, and the academic success of the RPT students. The theoretical framework for this study was a correlation approach within a crosssectional non-experimental design used by analyzing data from 28 second year RPT students’ ATI TEAS exams, RPT 234 mechanical ventilation course written exam performance scores, student demographics, and the National Board of Respiratory Care licensing board first time exam scores from a Wallace Community College in Dothan, Alabama. The study revealed there was only a negative correlation, but one that was close to becoming a positive correlation between reading comprehension and exam scores and student academic success within the respiratory therapist program at Wallace Community College. Administrators in the allied health programs can use the results of this study to determine what interventions, if any, might be implemented to help increase the reading comprehension scores of allied health students which may improve retention rates and first time pass rates on licensure examinations.

Book excerpt: In light of the national nursing shortage, there is a heightened need to admit students to schools of nursing who are likely to persist through graduation.

Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The null hypothesis for the 2015-2016 study sample was rejected. The null hypothesis for the 2016-2017 study sample was rejected. The null hypothesis for the 2017-2018 study sample was rejected.

Download or read book The Academic Impact of Prerequisite Coursework for Second Degree Students in an Accelerated Graduate Entry Prespecialty in Nursing Program written by Philip R. Martinez (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a lack of available literature on the correlations between completion of prerequisite courses and second degree student success in accelerated Graduate Entry Prespecialty in Nursing (GEPN) programs. There is also little uniformity among GEPN programs on specific prerequisite requirements. Therefore, the goal of this study was to identify the impact of prerequisite courses and other preadmission variables on student success in a GEPN program. A retrospective, descriptive, correlational design was guided by the adult and transformational learning theories. A strong positive correlation (r = 0.90) was found between students’ grade point average (GPA) in the pre-licensure year and in the overall program. The number of prerequisite courses taken identified a weak association with success. Further analyses revealed that taking anatomy & physiology, microbiology, or chemistry significantly increased student GPA in both the pre-licensure year and overall GEPN program, although the actual improvement in GPA was negligible. Furthermore, statistics or human growth and development did not significantly improve student GPA. There was also little to no correlation between a student’s undergraduate degree, undergraduate GPA, or Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) scores and success in the GEPN program. Finally, this study revealed that students who completed a graduate degree had a significantly lower GPA than students who did not. The lack of strong correlations between the number of prerequisite courses taken and other preadmission variables indicates a need for further examination to better quantify which requirements are necessary for second degree nursing students’ success.
