Abstract

This research aimed to observe the effects in nursing students before and after simulations scenarios with acute respiratory disease infected infants and lecture in simulation room similar to clinical situation. Twenty three mem- bers of the experimental group participated in the simulation scenarios and twenty four members of the control group participated in lectures in such a manner that the experiment had a quasiexperimental design. The control group's knowledge score was statistically significant(t=2.52, p=.042), however the experimental group's score was not statistically significant(t=1.61, p=.054). The control group's skill score was not significant in difference(t=1.34, p=.076), however the experimental group's skill score was statistically significant(t=2.98, p=.027). The control group's learning attitude was not statistically signifi- cant(t=1.12, p=.069), however the experimental group's learning attitude was statistically significant(t=2.63, p=.031). Therefore, this study demonstrates that simulation education program can be effective for knowledge and skill of nurs- ing students in simulation room similar to clinical situation.
