Abstract
Aims: This study aims to investigate final-year nursing students' actual perception of their clinical learning environment in Singapore. Design: Descriptive cross-sectional survey. Methods: = 301) in a polytechnic in Singapore between May-July 2018. Results: Most nursing students reported moderate satisfaction with their clinical learning environment, reflecting their positive (although not strongly positive) perceptions. Among the six constructs of the CLEI, the higher scores of the constructs of "Personalization" and "Task orientation" implied their greater contribution to the positive view. Conversely, the lower scores of "Individualization" and "Innovation" implied their lesser contribution. Additionally, the positive correlation between "satisfaction" and the other five CLEI constructs was found to be statistically significant.
