Abstract
Many new graduate nurses lack clinical competence in the practice setting. The purposes of this study were (a) to examine the differences in the gains in clinical competence between those students who participated in summer preceptorship programs and those students who worked as nursing assistants in noninstructional clinical settings, and (b) to describe how students in each group perceived various factors of their summer work experience relative to their preferences.
