State borad examinaions and associate degree program effectiveness.

Abstract

Relative effectiveness of the 13 Washington State associate degree (AD) programs was rated by 102 directors of nursing, AD nursing educators, and state board members. When the programs were ranked according to these ratings and the average of the programs' state board examinations, only a small positive relationship was obtained. State board examinations, therefore, should not be used by state and federal agencies as a composite measure of program effectivensss. Instead, the examinations should remain an assessment of th eminimum competency of individuals.
