Elkennawy, Rania;
Abstract
Assertiveness is a key attribute for nurses without which true autonomy professional status or empowerment cannot be achieved. Assertiveness is an interpersonal behavior that promotes equality in human relationships by assisting an individual give expression to their rights, thoughts and feelings in a manner that neither denies or demeans but recognizes and respects those of others .Student stress and self-efficacy are closely related. When an individual faces various demands from the external environment, personal beliefs such as self-efficacy help in differentiating them as threat or a challenge. It is the extent of competence of the individual that gives the confidence to interpret an event perceived as stressful or challenge. A strong sense of efficacy enhances human accomplishment and personal wellbeing in many ways. Such an efficacious outlook produces personal accomplishments, reduces stress and lowers vulnerability to depression. In contrast, people who doubt their capabilities shy away from difficult tasks which they view as personal threats. They have low aspirations and weak commitment to the goals they choose to pursue. They fall easy victim to stress and depression. Associations between education and well-being are not always positive. Adults with higher qualifications report relatively low job satisfaction, and there is some evidence that adults with high level qualifications are not much happier or resistant to depression than adults with qualifications at an intermediate level.
