Abstract
Background
Anxiety can negatively impact nursing students' confidence and performance during simulation-based training, leading to suboptimal learning outcomes.
Sample
The study included 102 prelicensure Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students. The participants (µage = 21.72, SD = 3.14), mostly female (n = 85, 83.33%) and Caucasian (n = 67, 65.69%), were randomized into control (n = 51) and experimental (n = 51) groups.
Method
Participants in the control group prepared for simulation as they usually would, while those in the experimental group listened to 15-minutes of classical music before their simulation sessions. Anxiety, self-efficacy, and instructor-assigned performance ratings during the simulation were evaluated.
Results
The experimental group experienced significantly lower anxiety, increased self-efficacy, and higher performance scores compared to the control group (p-values < .001 for all measures).
Conclusion
These results suggest that a 15-minute music-listening intervention could effectively reduce anxiety, boost self-efficacy, and improve performance during simulation-based training.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
