The Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (CJMM) is what the new NCLEX is built on.
Each layer represents the thought process needed to make a correct clinical judgment about a
client who needs nursing care.
Layer 0 represents the nurse determining the client's needs.
Layer 1 represents the entire process of clinical judgment.
According to the client response in layer 2, the nurse then moves through layers 3 and 4.
Layer 3 is the area where testing can take place to determine the education of entry-level
nurses and how they develop clinical judgment over a period of time. The six steps within layer 3
make up a repetitious process the student can improve over time with nursing experience and
clinical exposure. This is considered the “action layer.” Layer 4 creates a realistic client scenario.
The CJMM is appropriate for use in the lab setting, clinical setting, and on a standard written or
computer examination.
