Data were gathered using a standardized questionnaire designed to evaluate factors affecting the quality of clinical education. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation, Chi-square tests, independent t-tests, and analysis of variance (ANOVA).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 190 students participated in the study, including 60 males and 130 females, with ages ranging from 18 to 39 years.

Male students reported significantly lower scores in areas related to student\u2013teacher interactions, the learning environment, and evaluation criteria. Notably, overall clinical education scores demonstrated a decreasing trend with increasing age. Emergency medicine students achieved the highest scores, while those in nursing and operating room programs recorded the lowest.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The mean scores related to educational objectives, instructor quality, student\u2013teacher interactions, and the learning environment were lower among male students, older participants, and those enrolled in nursing and operating room programs.
