Purpose: This study is examined the effects of simulation practice education with problem-based learning methods on nursing students' learning attitudes, learning satisfaction, critical thinking disposition, and problem-solving ability. Method: A quasi-experiment single group pretest-posttest design was adopted. Simulation education was conducted by utilizing problem-based learning methods to teach the following topics to nursing students enrolled in 4th grade in S city: respiratory, circulatory, and nervous system. The experiment was conducted for 12 weeks, from September to December, 2019. Paired t-test and Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient were used to analyze the collected data. Results: Learning attitude and problem-solving ability showed significant differences in the experiment. Among the sub-areas of problem-solving ability, there were significant differences in the following: problem recognition (p<.001), information gathering (p<.001), confident thinking disposition (p<.001), acceptance to carry out an adventure (p<.001), evaluation (p=.027), and feedback (p<.001). In addition, learning attitude showed significant positive correlations with learning satisfaction, critical thinking disposition, and problem-solving ability. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that, it is necessary to develop a variety of iterative studies and simulation scenarios to confirm the effectiveness of simulation training.
