Hence, we aimed at investigating the obstacles of clinical education and strategies for improving the quality of education in Yasuj University of Medical Sciences. 
Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 108 nursing students who had attended at least one term of practical work in Hospital, 2010. The instrument was a questionnaire, including questions related to demographic characteristics and barriers of clinical skills, whose validity and reliability were approved (R = 0.81). The data was analyzed by SPSS 17. 
Results: The main obstacles were absence of learning objectives (85.9%), students' failure to maintain discipline (77.8%), lack of adequate training period (66.6%), lack of appropriate communication between students and personnel (62.1%). There was significant difference between male and female students about the importance of training records of instructors. (P <.001). But students' view was not significantly correlated with their demographic characteristics (P >0.05). 
Conclusion: There are major obstacles in four areas of clinical education that can be effective in students' practical skills. Thus, it is important for education officials to perform some appropriate interventions to provide a suitable clinical setting having education facilities, clinical environments and modified evaluation instruments.

The direct observation clinical skills (DOPS) needs to be performed by direct observation of the learner and simultaneous evaluation by a questionnaire. This study aimed to assess the effect of clinical skills evaluation applied by DOPS on the clinical performance nursing students.

The data was collected by a research-made questionnaire and analyzed by Wilcoxon, Mann Whitney, Spearman Coefficient (r = 0.05) and Kappa Coefficient (K= 0.6), using SPSS software. 
Results: The participants of case group were evaluated three times by DOPS and the ones in control were assessed once by routine method. The DOPS average point of case group stage 2 and 3 was significantly higher than that of controls (0.0001). But in control group, no change in mean point and no promotion in clinical performance were observed. 
Conclusion: The accurate implementation of DOPS can be a useful approach to connect knowledge to development of professional and skillful behavior. Thus, we recommend that the faculty members of nursing schools to focus on this way of evaluation and other modern approaches to develop continuing education.

Abstract

Background and Objective: Self-efficacy, one's belief in his ability to succeed in different situations, can have positive or negative effects on mental health. Students are considered as the community builders, and thus paying attention to their psychological dimensions is a paramount importance to health of community.  This study aimed at determining the relationship of self–efficacy and mental health with academic achievement of students in Bam nursing school.

Material and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on all students with eligibility criteria in 2011.  The instruments were General Self–Efficacy Scale (GSES), Symptom Checklist-25 (SCL-25) and Grade Point Average (GPA) for academic achievement. To analyze the data, we used Ttest, ANOVA and Pearson correlation.

Results: The level of self-efficacy was weak in 3.6 %, moderate in 84.8 % and strong in 11.5% of students. Regarding mental health aspects, the highest score was related to psychotism and depression (4.21) and the lowest to Obsessive-compulsive (3.43). The mental health of students with strong self-efficacy was higher than that of others. GPA was not correlated significantly with self-efficacy (p=0.44, r=0.062) and mental health status (p=0.96, r=0.044).

Conclusion: Mental health and academic achievement are not adequate therefore, we recommend planning some educational program based on self-efficacy theory to improve both mental health and academic achievement.
