Abstract :Objective: To determine the correlation between clinical performance competencies and attitudes towards caregiver roles among senior students practicing in internal medicine clinics. Method: A cross-sectional and correlational study conducted between March and June 2022 with 148 senior nursing students. The data were collected using the Internal Medicine Nursing Clinical Practice Care Plan Form based on Orem’s Self-Care Model, the Educator Evaluation Form, the Self-Efficacy in Clinical Performance Scale, and the Attitude Scale for Nurses in Caregiving Roles. For analysis, mean scores, t-test, Pearson’s correlation, and linear regression analysis were used. Results: When the correlation between the scales and their sub-dimensions was evaluated, it was determined that all sub-dimensions and total scores were positively correlated with each other from a weak to a moderate level. It was determined that the correlation coefficients varied statistically between 0.277 and 0.467 (p<0.01). The results of the regression analysis showed that the model consisting of the grade point average and the mean score of implementation explained 25% of the nurse\\\'s level of fulfillment of the caregiver role (adjusted R2=0.25, p<0.001). Conclusion: In this study, it was determined that gender, weighted grade point averages, and clinical competencies in practice affected senior nursing students\\\' ability to fulfill the caregiver role.
