However, there was no study on the correlation between academic and practice performance of pediatrics nursing in Ethiopia.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Mizan-Tepi University using 396 nursing students’ academic and practice achievements on a pediatric nursing course. SPSS version 21.0 was used for analysis. Spearman’s rho correlation (rs), one way ANOVA, independent t-test and determination coefficient (R2) were computed at p< 0.05.Results: The academic performance was strongly correlated with practice performance of the 2015 (rs (394) = 0.7, p< 0.001) and 2017 (rs (394) = 0.7, p< 0.001) batches of regular students. However, there was a moderate correlation between academic and practice performance for the batch of 2016 regular students (rs(394) = 0.43, p< 0.001). There was a moderate correlation between academic and practice performance of the 2015 (rs (394) = 0.6) and 2016 (rs (394) = 0.51, p< 0.001) batches of summer students. Linear regression analysis showed that academic performance explained 17.9% to 44.1% of variability in practice performance of the regular students. The linear regression analysis also showed that academic performance explained 26.5% to 41.2% of the variability in the practice performance of summer students. Independent T-test revealed significant mean performance difference by admission type (academic (t (144.7) = 6.43, p< 0.001) and practice (t (115.5) = 5.71, p< 0.001)). The mean performance difference significantly varied with sex both at academic (t (394) = 3.
