Abstract
This study examined the construct of competence among DNP-prepared nurse educators. Participants rated their ability to perform the behaviors associated with the NLN Core Competencies for Nurse Educators (NLN, 2012) using a 5-point Likert scale that aligned with Dreyfus' Five-Stage Model of Adult Skills Acquisition (2004).
