They were able to predict the readiness of the nursing students in student-centered learning with statistical significance at the level of .05 and multiple correlation coefficient (R) .71.

Factors influencing student-centered Learning readiness in nursing students can be written as the predictive equation in the raw score as follows;

Y = -0.937+ 0 .266 (X3)+ 0.447(X4) + 0.535(X5) + 0.147 (X2)

They can be written as predictive equation in the standard score as follows

Mdn = + 0.235(ZX3)+ 0.375(ZX4)+ 0.397 (ZX5)+0.163 (ZX2)
