The quality of clinical education requires that studentschr('39') ideas can guide for future program. The aim of this study was to determine the facilitation and inhibiting factors of clinical skills learning from the viewpoint of surgical technology and anesthesia students of Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences.

In this descriptive study, 104 students of 4th, 6th and 8th semesters of surgical and anesthesiology technology were selected through census sampling. Data gathering tools, demographic information, and a 61-item questionnaire about facilitating and inhibiting factors were effective on learning clinical skills. Data were analyzed using SPSS software and descriptive statistics and inferential statistics using independent t-test and P-Value<0.05 was considered significant.

The results showed that in the area of educator characteristics, good educator-patient relationship with staff and patient is the most important facilitating factor, and in the field of teacher-student communication, providing appropriate feedback from the instructor to the student and the teacher-student confidence are the most important factors, respectively. It was facilitating from the perspective of both groups of students. In terms of the relationship between staff and students, the temperament and anger of the staff were the most important deterrents from the viewpoint of both group.

The most important area of facilitating clinical education from the students chr('39')point of view was good teacherschr('39') characteristics. Therefore, it is recommended to employ experienced teachers and continuous training of inexperienced instructors.

Sleep disorder is one of the most prevalent health problems among elderly people. Regular physical exercise can promote calmness. The current study aimed at comparing the effects of morning and evening walks on nighttime sleep quality among elderly people.
The current 2-group randomized, crossover trial was conducted on 50 eligible elderly people. Participants were randomly assigned to morning-evening and evening-morning walk groups. In the first phase of the study, cases in the groups went on morning and evening walks, respectively, for 4 weeks. After a 4-week washout period and in the second phase of the study, cases in the groups went on 4-week evening and morning walks, respectively. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburg sleep quality index (PSQI) at 4 assessment time points, namely before the intervention, immediately after the first intervention, immediately after the washout period (i e, immediately before the second intervention), and immediately after the second intervention. The SPSS software version 18.0 was employed to analyze the data by the paired- and the independent-samples t tests and the intergroup repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). Significance level for all statistical tests was 0.05.
At both baseline assessments (i e, before the first and the second interventions), groups did not differ significantly regarding the mean scores of sleep quality (P >0.05).However, after both morning and evening walks, the mean score of sleep quality decreased significantly compared with the baseline readings (P The findings of the current study showed that morning and evening walks similarly improved sleep quality. Thus, elderly people can be recommended to include walking exercise in their daily schedule in order to improve their sleep quality.
