This study was to determine the relationship between nurse DISC personality types, self-efficacy, clinical performance. Data were collected from 302 nurses in 5 hospitals in K city. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient. With regard to self-efficacy and clinical performance, D type showed a higher score than type I type and S type. The lower region of the clinical performance showed the nursing process, nursing skills, higher score than the D Type S Type in professional development. With regard to personality and self-efficacy, and clinical performance, the type D (r=.56, p<.01), I type (r=.66, p<.01), S type (r=.6, p<.01) showed a positive correlation with type C (r=.52, p<.01). As shown by these results, each personality type has a different correlation with self-efficacy and clinical performance ability.

As a result of the average level of knowledge of the SP 22.55/25, recognition 3.68/4, and performance 3.77/4. The recognition of SP and implementation of SP(r=.250, p=.003) had a significant amount of correlation. The influence factor on the implementation of the SP was recognition of the SP(β=-.582, p=.001). Therefore, in order to improve the performance of SP and to respond well to new respiratory infections, accurate awareness of the SP of nurses and opportunities for systematic education and participation in education are needed by medical institutions.
