Purpose This study aimed to develop and evaluate a simulation-based autotransfusion device training program to enhance the clinical performance, performance confidence, and educational satisfaction of post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) nurses. Methods: A single-group pretestposttest study was conducted with 30 PACU nurses. The program, based on the ADDIE model, included orientation, simulation training, and debriefing. Data were collected using validated tools before and after the program and analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: Clinical performance improved from a median of 30.00 to 43.00 (Z =−4.78, p < .001). Performance confidence increased from 31.00 to 47.50 (Z =−4.71, p < .001), while educational satisfaction rose from 26.00 to 40.00 (Z =−4.73, p < .001). Conclusions: The simulation-based program effectively enhanced the clinical performance, performance confidence, and education satisfaction of PACU nurses. These findings underscore the value of simulation-based training for enhancing nurses’ competence in using complex, high-risk medical devices.

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the effects of a disaster nursing education program using the Korean Triage and Acuity Scale (KTAS) on nursing students’ competency in emergency patient triage, core competencies, confidence in disaster nursing, and self-efficacy in disaster response. Methods: This study utilized a nonequivalent control group design. The experimental group (n=25) participated in a disaster nursing education program that incorporated the KTAS, whereas the control group (n=27) did not receive any intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-tests. Results: The two groups differed significantly in both competency in emergency patient triage (t=3.47, p=.001) and confidence in disaster nursing (t=2.51, p=.015). Conclusions: This study indicates that a disaster nursing education program using the KTAS, a tool currently employed in clinical practice, rather than theory-based instruction alone, contributed to enhancing nursing students’ practical competencies. Such training can improve the emergency patient triage and confidence in disaster nursing required in emergency situations, ultimately enabling future nurses to better protect the lives and health of individuals affected by disasters.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of simulation education in patient safety nursing on nursing students’ attitudes toward patient safety, confidence in patient safety, academic self-efficacy, and academic engagement. Methods: The study was conducted from April to May 2022 with 69 nursing students enrolled in a fundamental nursing practice course. Two simulation scenarios were developed to enhance the patient safety competencies. Each scenario was implemented in two sessions, each lasting 90 minutes. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires, which measured attitudes toward patient safety, confidence in patient safety, academic self-efficacy, and academic engagement before and after the simulation education. Data were analyzed by employing descriptive statistics and paired t-tests using SPSS Statistics Version 26.0. Results: After participating in the simulation program, students showed statistically significant improvements in their attitudes toward patient safety (t=9.11, p<.001), confidence in patient safety (t=15.66, p<.001), academic self-efficacy (t=6.03, p<.001), and academic engagement (t=9.28, p<.001). Conclusion: The findings suggest that simulation education in patient safety nursing is an effective nursing education strategy. The study highlights the need to develop and expand diverse simulation-based learning programs in nursing education.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop and implement a multi-patient simulation (MPS) program for nursing students with no prior clinical practice experience. It also examined the effects of the program on the students’ communication competence and clinical reasoning ability. Methods: A one-group pretest-posttest design was used. The MPS program, consisting of four patient scenarios was applied to second-year nursing students with no prior clinical practice experience. Communication competence, clinical reasoning ability, and the perceived effectiveness of the multi-patient simulation program were measured using structured tools before and after the program. Results: Communication competence significantly improved after the MPS program, whereas clinical reasoning did not show a statistically significant difference. Perceived effectiveness of the MPS program was generally high, with the debriefing component scoring the highest. Confidence scores were relatively low, suggesting the need for level-appropriate scenario. Conclusion: The MPS program was effectively enhanced communication competence among preclinical nursing students. Although clinical reasoning scores did not improve significantly, the study highlights the importance of introducing realistic simulation experiences early in nursing education. Future research should focus on developing suitable clinical reasoning assessment tools for early year students and conducting randomized controlled trials to validate the effectiveness of customized MPS programs.

This study aims to investigate the effects of using AI chatbots in Korean English education from a macro perspective. For this purpose, 19 experimental studies are selected to conduct a meta-analysis, synthesizing the results of 51 individual study cases. The results of this study are as follows: First, it is found that the overall effect size of using chatbots is more than medium size meaning that a chatbot is an effective tool to learn English. Second, in the aspects of linguistic competence and affective categories, each shows over medium sizes like the overall effect size. In details of the dependent variables, vocabulary and speaking in linguistic competence and motivation in affective categories, large effect sizes are shown. Third, the effect sizes are getting larger, as the younger the students are, the longer the experiment period lasts, and the more purpose-built the chatbot is. But the differences in the effect sizes in terms of these moderators (e.g., school level, experiment period, and chatbot type) are not significant. Lastly, it is suggested that follow-up studies are needed to collect a sufficient number of experimental study cases and subdivide the variables for performing a more detailed meta-anlysis.

기후변화를 비롯한 다양한 환경문제로 인하여 환경 교육의 중요성이 증가되고 있다. 환경 교육 을 위한 식물 교육 프로그램을 개발하고 이를 초등학생 121명에게 적용한 후 환경친화적 태도와 식물친숙도를 평가하였다. 식물 환경교육 프로그램에 대해서는 전체적으로 만족도가 높았으며, 프로그램 시간, 강사, 내용, 장소 등이 만족도에 영향을 미쳤다. 초등학생들은 프로그램 참여 의 사가 높으며, 만족도와 참여 의사는 높은 상관관계가 있었다. 프로그램을 수행하지 않은 학생과 비교하면 식물교육 프로그램의 효과로 환경 지식습득, 기분개선이 높게 분석되어 식물 교육 프 로그램은 환경에 대한 인식의 제고에 긍정적 효과가 있다. 환경친화적 태도의 하위 영역인 환경 보호와 환경오염에 대한 인식에서 효과가 있으며, 학년이 낮을수록 교육에 의한 차이가 있었다. 저학년부터 다양한 환경 교육 활동을 경험하게 되면 환경 감수성이 향상될 것으로 기대된다. 식 물 교육활동은 식물 친숙도에 긍정적 효과가 있으며, 인지적 측면에서 지식습득의 효과 뿐 아니 라 정서적 측면의 향상에도 유리하다. 환경친화적 태도와 식물친숙도 향상에 효과가 있는 식물 교육프로그램의 참여도 향상을 위해서는 만족도를 제고해야 하며, 이를 위해서는 프로그램 시 간, 강사, 내용 등의 운영 및 구성이 중요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study attempted to explore how the perception of the necessity of safety education for adolescents affects fire safety consciousness and whether personality factors control the relationship. To this end, a survey was conducted at a high school in region C, and data of 1,049 people who agreed to the survey and responded faithfully were used for analysis. Hayes’ macro was used to analyze the moderating effect, and as a result of the analysis, adolescents’ awareness of the need for safety education increased, and their relationship was significantly regulated by extroversion, openness, and conscientiousness among the five personality factors. A simple regression line analysis was conducted to find out the specific direction, and it was found that the higher the need for safety education in both the group with high extroversion, openness, and conscientiousness, the higher the awareness of safety education. These results suggest that changes in educational methods and contents are needed to raise awareness of the necessity of education in fire safety education and to improve educational motivation, and that it may be helpful to actively utilize students’ personality strengths in education.

Purpose: Personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for protecting healthcare workers from COVID-19 outbreaks. Therefore, this study examined the effects of a nursing simulation education program on PPE use for COVID-19 among nursing students. Methods: We employed a non-equivalent control group post-test design. The experimental group (n=38) engaged in a nursing simulation education program on PPE use. The control group (n=36) received PPE and the opportunity to participate in the same program after the intervention. Further, data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and independent t-test. Results: The experimental group showed significant differences in attitude toward PPE (t=3.21, p=.002) and efficacy of PPE use (t=9.92, p<.001), but not in the intention to care for patients with COVID-19 (t=0.95, p=.343). Conclusion: Nursing simulation education for PPE significantly improved attitude and increased self-efficacy toward PPE among nursing students. However, the intention to care for COVID-19 patients was not changed. Thus, it is necessary to find a way to improve the nursing intention toward COVID-19 patients.
