Background & Aims: Clinical competence is one of the main indicators of performance in nursing. Researchers believe that to maintain nursing care standards, it is necessary to recognize the factors associated with the promotion of clinical competence. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between moral intelligence and clinical competence of nursing students in the internship course.
Materials & Methods: This descriptive correlational study was performed on 125 nursing students in an internship course in selected branches of Islamic Azad Universities of Isfahan province. Participants were selected by purposive sampling. Data collection was done by standard questionnaires of moral intelligence and clinical competency of nursing students. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation test, and multivariate regression in SPSS software version 16.
