Abstract

academic advisor. The intent of this collaboration is to assist the student in the development of
meaningful educational goals that are consistent with personal interests, values and abilities. Aims: This
study aimed to assess academic advising and its relation to nursing students' self-efficacy. Design: An
analytic cross-sectional research design was used in conducting the study in order to find out the
relationship between academic advising and nursing students' self-efficacy, Both dependent and
independent variables were measured at the same point in time with no prospective or retrospective
follow-up. Subject and Method: The subjects of this study consist of nursing students enrolled in the
four academic years in Faculty of Nursing, MTI University. Their total number was 750 students in the
academic year 2019/2020. Tools were used to collect the necessary data, a structured interviewing
questionnaire, Academic Advising Inventory (AAI) to assess the mode of academic advising from
student's point of view and Perceived self-efficacy scale to assess nursing student's perception regarding
self-efficacy. Results: The study revealed (43.5%) of the nursing students were satisfied with academic
advising. While, (71.5%) of nursing students having high level of self-efficacy. Conclusion: The finding
of this study concluded that the prescriptive academic advising mode is the most prevailing mode in the
study setting. However, students‟ satisfaction and self-efficacy are higher with the developmental mode.
Recommendations: staff development programs are strongly recommend to train academic advisors in
the modes of advising, with emphasis on the merits of the developmental mode. Academic advisors
should be provided with sufficient time for advising sessions to be able to provide their students with all
their academic needs.
