본 연구는 DML(Debriefing for Meaning Learning[이하 DML])를 적용한 응급 시뮬레이션 실 습이 간호대학생의 비판적 사고능력, 문제해결 능력, 의사소통 능력에 미치는 효과를 확인하고자 시도되었 다. 연구는 비동등성 대조군 전후 실험설계의 유사실험연구로, D 시에 소재한 간호대학생 중 중재군 38명, 대조군 35명, 총 73명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구결과, 비판적 사고능력(t=-3.144, p=.002), 문제해결 능력 (t=-3.248, p=.002), 의사소통 능력(t=-4.051, p<.001)은 실험군이 대조군에 비해 유의하게 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 DML은 간호대학생의 비판적사고, 문제해결능력, 의사소통능력을 향상시키는 방 법임을 확인하였다.

Purpose: This study aims to describe the experience of nursing students who used a virtual simulation program for their nursing practicum. Method: Structured debriefing papers were collected from 65 senior nursing students using a convenient sampling method for this qualitative study. Conventional content analysis method was used for data analysis. Results: The study’s findings derived three theme clusters. The theme clusters were “satisfied by leading role in nursing practice and repetitive training,” “gained nursing responsibility and confidence in applying the learning into clinical practice,” and “recognized the limitations of customized nursing care.” Conclusion: The results of this study provided insight into nursing students' virtual simulation-based practical training experiences in the context of the Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic.

Purpose: This study seeks to confirm the relationship between learning self-efficacy, learning satisfaction, and transfer motivation among nursing students who complete the integrated simulation practice class. Method: The data for the study were collected through self-report questionnaires administered to 4th year students and were analyzed using the SPSS 18.0 program. Results: The findings show that learning self-efficacy is 6.03±.69 (7 points), learning satisfaction is 4.23±.57 (5 points), and transfer motivation is 5.70±.90 (7 points). The transfer motivation has a positive correlation with both learning self-efficacy and learning satisfaction and learning self-efficacy has a positive correlation with learning satisfaction. The factors influencing the transfer motivation of nursing students are learning self-efficacy (β=.87, p<.001) and learning satisfaction (β=.24, p=.028), which together account for 61.9% of the transfer motivation. Conclusion: The results demonstrate that to enhance the transfer motivation for nursing students, it is necessary to develop a program and curriculum for increasing learning self-efficacy and learning satisfaction.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of simulation-mixed maternity nursing practicum on learning attitude, learning satisfaction and clinical practice performance in nursing students. Methods: One group, pre-post design, was utilized with 64 students. The simulation-mixed maternity nursing practicum consisted of intrapartum and postpartum care. Results: The learning attitude and learning satisfaction scores in maternity nursing care showed a significant change in the post-test (t=-5.92, p <.001, t=-7.35, p <.001) and enhanced clinical practice performance. Conclusion: The simulation-mixed maternity nursing practicum was useful in improving the learning attitude and learning satisfaction and clinical practice performance for maternity nursing practicum in nursing students. In conclusion, We recommend for simulation-mixed maternity nursing practicum to increase clinical practice performance of the students.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of simulation-based education on knowledge, self-confidence and satisfaction about maternity core nursing practicum in senior nursing students. Methods: One group, pre-post design, was utilized with 77 students. The simulation -based maternity core nursing practicum that consisted of two sessions each 2 hours long for intrapartum and postpartum care was provided to 6 small groups. Core items of knowledge about and self-confidence in maternity core nursing practicum were measured with 18 items before and after the sessions. Results: The knowledge, self-confidence and satisfaction scores in maternity nursing care showed a significant change in the post-test (t=-13.99, p<.001, t=-21.14, p<.001). Conclusion: The simulation-based maternity core nursing practicum was useful in improving the knowledge, self-confidence and satisfaction scores for childbirth and postpartum care in nursing students. In conclusion, We recommend for maternity core nursing practicum to empower the competency of the students.
