The Effect of Time Management Training on Nursing Students' Academic Achievement and Their Resilience

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of time management training on female nursing students' academic achievement and their resilience.

This was a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study with 30 female nursing students, selected randomly. All 30 participants completed the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), and assigned randomly in experimental (n=15) and control (n=15) groups. The experimental group participated in 10 sixty-minute sessions of time management training, while the control group received no training. At the end of the training period, all participants recompleted CD-RISC. The data were analyzed using SPSS (V24.0) and MANCOVA.

The results showed that, based on the effect size, time management training predicts 57% and 80% of academic achievement and resilience variances, respectively.

Time management training contributes in students' academic achievement and increases their resilience.
