a.

Relationship between the Profile of the Respondents and the Challenges

Encountered by Nursing Students Before their RLE. The following are the

collected data provides information of the relationship between the profile of the

respondents and the challenges encountered by nursing students before their

clinical duty.

It shows that the computed value along with the age, sex, family monthly

income of both parents and area of clinical duty had a computed values of 1.50,

0.29, 15.75 and 1.33 which are lesser than the tabular values of 5.99, 5.99, 24.99

and 5.99 therefore the null hypothesis is accepted this means that there is no

significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and the challenges

encountered by nursing students before their clinical duty except for the religion

which has a computed value of 19.12 which is greater than the tabular value of

14.68, therefore the null hypothesis is rejected which may inferred that there are

significant relationship between the profile of the respondents according to

religion and the challenges encountered by nursing students before their clinical

duty.

This finding is supported by the study Tork, E. E. M., et al., (2020), which

stated that religion was a significant factor in the challenges faced by nursing

students in the clinical learning environment, but age, sex, monthly income, and

area of clinical duty did not have a significant relationship with the challenges

encountered.

b. Relationship between the Profile of the Respondents and the Challenges

Encountered by Nursing Students During their RLE. From the data gathered

provides information of the relationship between the profile of the respondents

and the challenges encountered by nursing students during their clinical duty.

It shows that the computed value along with the age, sex, family monthly

income of both parents and area of clinical duty had a computed values of 2.29,

1.33, 12.29 and 2.29 which are lesser than the tabular values of 5.99, 5.99, 18.31

and 5.90 therefore the null hypothesis is accepted this means that there is no

significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and the challenges

encountered by nursing students during their clinical duty. While the religion has

a computed value of 32.29 which is greater than the tabular value of 14.68,

therefore the null hypothesis is rejected which may inferred that there are

significant relationship between the profile of the respondents according to

religion and the challenges encountered by nursing students during their clinical

duty.

This finding is supported by the study of Mabuda B.T., et al. (2019),

which stated that there was no significant relationship between demographic

 factors such as age, sex, and monthly income with the challenges encountered by

the nursing students before their R.L.E, except for religious beliefs that had a

significant impact on the nursing students' experiences during their clinical

practice.

c. Relationship between the Profile of the Respondents and the Challenges

Encountered by Nursing Students After RLE. The following data provides

information of the relationship between the profile of the respondents and the

challenges encountered by nursing students after their clinical duty. It shows that

the computed value along with the age, sex, religion, family monthly income of

both parents and area of clinical duty had a computed values of 1.29, 1.29, 7.19,

17.42 and 1.00 which are lesser than the tabular values of 3.84, 3.84, 14.68, 25.00

and 3.84 therefore the null hypothesis is accepted this means that there is no

significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and the challenges

encountered by nursing students after their clinical duty according to their age,

sex, religion, family monthly income of both parents and area of clinical duty. All

of five profiles were found not significant.

 This finding is supported by qualitative study of Salehian, M., & Borhani F.

(2019) which stated that the collected demographic information about the

participants, including their age, gender, religion, monthly income, and area of clinical

duty have no significant relationship between these demographic profile and the

challenges encountered by nursing students after their RLE. Which may inferred that

Demographic profile of the nursing students have no significant relationship to the

challenges encountered by the nursing students after their Related Learning Experience.
