Method: The research is descriptive and cross-sectional. The population of this study consisted of second-, third- and fourth-year students studying in the Department of Nursing affiliated to the Faculty of Health Sciences of a university located in Turkey. The analysis was conducted using JASP 0.19.1.0 and SPSS 25 software. Mann–Whitney U and Kruskal–Wallis tests were applied. The Bonferroni test was performed to identify the group causing the difference. Results: A significant positive correlation was found between nursing students' perception of occupational risk and nursing students' attitude toward clinical practice (r = 0.434, p = 0.000). The mean score of the nursing students' perception of occupational risk in nursing students was 68.74 ± 15.04. The mean score of attitude towards clinical practice in nursing students was 100.04 ± 24.83. A statistically significant difference was found between the presence of attitude towards clinical practice in nursing students and perception of occupational risk in nursing students in the gender variable (p < 0.05), whereas a statistically significant difference was found between adequate information about the nursing profession and attitude towards clinical practice in nursing students (p < 0.05). Conclusion: In the findings of the study, nursing students' perception of occupational risk and attitudes towards clinical practice were found at a high level. A statistically significant difference was found between the presence of perception of occupational risk in nursing students and attitude towards clinical practice in nursing students in the gender variable. In addition, a statistically significant difference was found between adequate knowledge and nursing profession about the nursing profession and attitude towards clinical practice in nursing students.John Wiley and Sons Inc2025Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/munzur/1443https://doi.org/10.1111/jep.143041356-1294enJournal of Evaluation in Clinical Practiceinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://munzur-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/munzur/1443
