Aim of the study: Was to enhance intern- nurses' critical thinking using selflearning package. Design: Quasi-experimental design was utilized to conduct this study.

Setting: This study was carried out at Beni-suef University hospital. Tools: Two tools were used to collect data: Critical Thinking Knowledge Questionnaire and Self-Learning Package Attitude Questionnaire. Results: There was no statistically significant correlation between level of knowledge and level of self-learning package attitude. Conclusion: There were improvements in the levels of knowledge regarding critical thinking among studied intern-nurses in both study and control groups throughout immediate post and follow up phases from the preprogram phase. Recommendations: Adopt self-learning packages in the orientation program of intern-nurses by nursing faculties. Further research can be conducted to consider longitudinal research designs that will enable them to track nurses’ critical thinking development over the course of their entire undergraduate careers | ||||
