Veronica Paula, Fransisca I.R Dewi

Abstract


Introduction: The quality of education is measured through satisfactory learning achievements. Student success in learning is assessed based on learning outcomes. Students need to increase their desire to learn, thus students need to increase involvement in the learning process. The desire to learn can be increased by developing psychological strengths that exist in students which can be incorporated in one variable called psychological capital. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of psychological capital in student engagement during their senior year as nursing students. Research methods: This study was conducted using quantitative correlation methodology. The instruments used in this study were the Academic Psychological Capital Questionnaire (A-PCQ) and the University Student Engagement Inventory (USEI). Participants in this study were 130 senior nursing students. The results of the study: The result shows that the dimensions of psychological capital has a significant role in the involvement of students. The different dimensions of psychological capital included in the analysis are: (1) self-efficacy (p-value = 0,000), (2) resilience (p-value = 0.019), (3) optimism (p-value = 0.016) and (4) expectations (p- value = 0.558). Recommendation: Researchers can explore the internal factors in senior nursing students that help them develop self-efficacy, hope, resilience, and optimism. These dimensions are necessary for nursing students' progress to advanced learning and improvement of their achievements. Researchers then need to examine the impact of psychological capital in influencing leadership effectiveness, teamwork, and readiness to change.
