This study examines research trends and measurement tools related to clinical practicum satisfaction among nursing students, with the goal of offering insights for future research directions A search was conducted using combinations of the keywords 'nursing college students,' 'clinical practice satisfaction,' 'practice satisfaction,' and 'practice' from 1985 to 2022 in three domestic databases. After applying selection/exclusion criteria, a final analysis was performed on 91 studies. The papers analyzed in this study consisted of 91 quantitative studies (100%), and 75 studies(82.4%) lacked IRB approval. Furthermore, the research tools used in these studies often lacked reliability and validity verification. Additionally, a significant proportion of the variables related to clinical practice satisfaction focused on individual students, with 35 types associated with individual competency and emotional characteristics. These findings indicate the need for various efforts in nursing professional development to improve students' satisfaction with clinical practice.
