Abstract
The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is widely accepted as an
effective means of assessing clinical competence and nursing skills. There is, however, little
existing knowledge on how first-year nursing students perceived stress during their first OSCE. To determine the perception of stress; to identify the perceived factors causing
stress; and to determine the perceived incidence of stress. A descriptive, survey was conducted on a sample of 82 first-year nursing students
using the Perceived Stress Scale (PPS).
