Abstract

Objectives This study was conducted to verify the effect of applying a psychonursing simulation program using standardized patients to nursing students.
 Methods This is a single-group pre- and post-experimental design study conducted on 49 third-year nursing students. The research procedure consisted of the formation of a psychiatric nursing practice simulation team, program development, standardized patient selection and training, program application and effectiveness verification.
 Results Learner self-efficacy(t=4.81, p<.001), learning satisfaction(t=3.95, p<.001), and transfer motivation(t=5.44, p< .001) were significantly improved compared to before the implementation of the program, and there was a quantitative correlation between learner self-efficacy, learning satisfaction, transfer motivation, and self-efficacy in communication.
 Conclusions Since simulation education using standardized patients was useful in mental nursing practice education, it is expected to help improve the quality of mental nursing practice and clinical practice education.
