A Study of Factors Affecting Digital Intelligence Quotient of Nursing Students
Keywords:
Digital Intelligence Quotient, Nursing Students, Internal Factors, External FactorsAbstract
This research aimed to study the factors related to and influencing the digital intelligence quotient of nursing students using descriptive correlation research. Data were collected from a sample of 110 nursing students from the nursing faculty of private universities and government nursing faculty. The instrument used to collect data was a questionnaire, divided into 4 parts: Personal information questionnaire, Digital Intelligence Quotient questionnaire, internal factors questionnaire, and External factors questionnaire. Data analysis used descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The findings are as follows:
The internal factors related to the digital intelligence quotient of nursing students were interest (ρ = 0.333, p< 0.01), motivation (ρ = 0.296, p< 0.01), and learning personality (ρ= 0.278, p< 0.01), which could predict digital intelligence by 43 per cent (R² = 0.436). The external factors related to the digital intelligence quotient were learning opportunities (ρ = 0.421, p< 0.01) and learning environment support (ρ= 0.348, p< 0.01), which could predict Digital Intelligence Quotient by 49 percent (R² = 0.497).
The results of this research indicate that both the internal and external factors mentioned above play an important role in the development of the digital intelligence quotient in nursing students. Therefore, it is proposed to develop a program that focuses on promoting these factors to systematically enhance the digital quotient potential of nursing students.
