Abstract

The purpose of this one group pretest posttest quasi-experimental study was to examine the effects of simulation-based learning for preparation of midwifery practicum on knowledge, satisfaction, and self-confidence among nursing students. Sample comprised 76 fourth year nursing students, which were selected by purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out from February to March in 2020. Research instruments included 1) the simple and advanced simulation scenarios, which were validated by experts andobtainedthe contentvalidityindex (CVI) of 1.00; 2) the knowledge test; and 3) the student satisfaction and self-confidence in learning scale.

Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test. The results revealed that after participating in simulation-based learning for preparation of midwifery practice, mean knowledge score and mean self-confidence score of the participants were significantly higher than before participating in this preparation. In addition, the students’ satisfaction with simulation-based learning was at a high level. These results can be applied for promoting the simulation-based learning for preparation of midwifery practice among nursing students.
