Purpose : This study aimed to examine the effects of self-efficacy and perceived preceptors’ clinical teaching behavior on the organizational socialization of recently graduated nurses. Methods : The participants were 138 recently graduated nurses who had been employed at two tertiary hospitals for 12 months or less. The data were collected using structured self-reported questionnaires from July 23 to August 31, 2024. T-tests, one-way analysis of variance, Shapiro-Wilk test, Welch test, Scheffé's test, Pearson's correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were conducted to analyze the data. Results : Organizational socialization showed significant differences depending on the work department and gender. Organizational socialization was significantly correlated positively with self-efficacy (p<.001) and preceptors’ clinical teaching behavior (p<.001). Significant predictors of organizational socialization among recently graduated nurses were self-efficacy (β=.45, p<.001), preceptors’ clinical teaching behavior (β=.27, p<.001), and gender (β=-.15, p=.027). These variables accounted for 41% of the variance in recently graduated nurses' organizational socialization (F=31.32, p<.001). Conclusion : The results of this study showed that considering self-efficacy and preceptors’ clinical teaching behavior might be helpful for developing strategies to enhance organizational socialization among recently graduated nurses.
