간호대학생의 가상현실(VR)기반 시뮬레이션 간호실습 경험

Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study was to understand the characteristics of nursing students by type, provide evidence for improving the quality of nursing education and developing programs, and present strategies for practical education development by examining and categorizing the structure of nursing students' perception of virtual reality(VR)-based nursing practice experiences through Q methodology.
 Methods In order to form a method Q population, a literature review related to VR based simulation nursing practice was conducted after making nursing students write thoughts and feelings about virtual reality based simulation nursing practice experiences. Based on the results derived through this, a total of 34 Q statements were extracted through the work of selecting duplicate or ambiguous sentences. The Q sample statement was classified into a normal distribution table on a 9-point scale by 41 nursing students, and the data collected through this were analyzed using the pc-QUANAL program.
 Results As a result of the analysis of the results, four types of VR based simulation nursing practice experienced by nursing students were identified. The first type was VR experience curiosity type, the second type was the nursing knowledge lack awareness type, the third type was the practice content self-reflection type, and the fourth type was the desire type for various clinical experiences.
 Conclusions Through this study, it is believed that VR media can be used as basic data for the development of educational programs that can be effectively used in nursing practice and the development of educational media to help them grow as practical experts.
