護理人員在每日的臨床工作中，需運用臨床判斷過程去收集個案資料，評價所有相關資訊、確立個案需求，並判斷個案護理的成果。此種判斷能力亦是評估護理學生學習成效的關鍵能力。本質性研究的目的在瞭解臺灣護理教育在臨床判斷能力的教學概況，以作為進一步提供臺灣護理學生，學習臨床判斷較佳學習方式的基礎。資料收集採個別深入會談方式，共訪談十位來自不同領域的資深護理教師。本研究兩項主要發現如下： (1) 臨床判斷包括認知、技能和情意等三大領域，(2) 由於文化差異，在描述情意領域時，臺灣以「經驗」一詞取代國外文獻中的「直觀」。本研究建議臺灣在臨床判斷的教學上，宜採用全人的統整的教學模式。

　　　　　Clinical judgment is a process that nurses use during the course of their daily practice to gather and to evaluate data, define the needs of the clients, and to judge the outcome of patient care. Such judgment is also a critical ability used to assess the progress of nursing students. The purpose of this qualitative research was to describe the clinical judgment teaching in nursing education in Taiwan and provide baseline data for future nursing students to learn in a more effective way. Data was collected by in-depth individual interviews of 10 participants, all of whom were senior nursing faculty members from different nursing subspecialties. Two findings were reached. First, clinical judgment included not only the cognitive and the psychomotor domain of learning, but also the affective domain of reasoning. Second, due to cultural differences, "intuition" had never been mentioned in Taiwan, but a similar concept was substituted by use of the term "experience". The findings suggested a holistic and integrative perspective was needed when teaching clinical judgement in Taiwan.
