Purpose: This study examined the influence of nursing students’ competencies in assessment, communication, clinical judgment, and patient safety on evidence-based practice (EBP) competency through simulation training. Methods: Data were collected from in December 11 in 2023 to January 30 in 2024, using a self-report questionnaire. The final participants were 230 nursing students in two universities. Multiple regression, t-test, ANOVA were used for data analysis. Results: The competencies of nursing students who participated in simulation training significantly influenced their EBP competency. The most influential factor on nursing students’ competency of EBP was Clinical Judgment, followed by Communication. Assessment and Patient safety competencies did not have a statistically significant impact on EBP competency. Conclusion: It is crucial for nurses to implement EBP to provide high-quality nursing and advance nursing as a science. However, since EBP competency is difficult to acquire in a short period, education on EBP is necessary from nursing school. Simulation training is considered an effective means to enhance nursing students' competency in EBP. Our study suggests incorporating elements that strengthen competencies in clinical judgment and communication when establishing a simulationbased training program to enhance the EBP competency of nursing students.

목적 : 이 연구는 대한작업치료학회지에 게재 논문을 중심으로 국내 작업치료 분야 메타분석 논문의 방법론적 질을 평가하고 메타분석 연구를 위한 지침을 제공하는 것이다. 연구방법 : 창간호부터 2019년까지 발간된 대한작업치료학회지 게재 논문 중 메타분석 논문을 검색하여 최종적으로 7편의 논문을 선택하였다. 메타분석 논문의 방법론적 질은 AMSTAR 평가도구의 기준에 따라 분석하였다. 결과 : 메타분석 논문의 전체 방법론적 질 평균점수는 6.71점(SD=0.70)으로 보통 수준에 해당하였다. 분석논문들은 모두 보통 수준(100%)에 해당하였으며 높은 수준 및 낮은 수준의 연구는 한 편도 없었다. 분석대상 연구들은 AMSTAR의 11개 항목 중 7개 항목을 충실하게 이행하고 있었으나, 4개 항목(회색문헌 사용, 포함 및 배제논문 목록 제시, 결론 도출 시 질 평가 결과 활용, 이해상충 기술)에 대해서는 공통적으로 거의 수행하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 결론 : 작업치료 분야의 메타분석 연구들은 방법론적 분석과정을 보통 수준 이상으로 충실하게 수행하는 것으로 확인되었으나, 메타분석 시 회색문헌을 선정기준에 포함하고 개별연구 질 평가 결과를 결론에 반영하며 이해상충 표기를 함으로서 메타분석 논문의 질 향상을 위한 노력을 지속하여야 하겠다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to provide simulation training on evidence-based practical training and to examine its effects. Method: Data were collected from 83 students at C University, between October 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018. This training was conducted over a 5-week period. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Friedman test, the Wilcoxon signedrank test, and Repeated Measure ANOVA, all after the normality test. Results: There was a significant difference between the two groups in evidence-based practice beliefs, competence, nursing profession perspective, critical thinking tendencies, and problem-solving ability (p<.001). More specifically, there was a greater improvement in evidence-based practice knowledge, critical thinking tendency, and problem-solving ability than in the existing simulation exercise. Conclusion: Being effective in enhancing the ability to provide evidence-based practice beliefs, competencies, nursing profession perspectives, and, especially in evidence-based practice knowledge, critical thinking tendencies, and problem-solving skills, it is necessary to link evidence-based education and existing simulation training.
