Summary

Purpose This study was conducted to determine the effect of computer-aided simulation education on nursing students' aspiration skills and general competence beliefs.

Research Hypotheses H1-1: Computer-aided simulation education has an effect on aspiration self-efficacy.

H1-2: Computer-aided simulation education has an effect on nursing students' general competence beliefs.

Method

Research Design The research is a randomized controlled experimental study.

Place of the Research The research was conducted with students studying in the second year of the nursing department of the faculty of health sciences of a state university in the fall semester of the 2024-2025 academic year between November 20 and December 20, 2024.

The Universe and Sample of the Study The universe of the study consisted of students studying in the second year of the nursing department of the faculty of health sciences of a state university in the fall semester of the 2024-2025 academic year (N=126). The sample consisted of second year students who met the acceptance criteria of the study. Power analysis was performed to determine the number of people to be included in the study. Power analysis was calculated with the G\*Power 3.1 program in the sample calculation. The effect size was taken as 0.80 as high level according to the difference between independent groups determined by Cohen (1988). In order to exceed the 95% value in determining the power of the study; a total of 70 people should be reached, 35 in each group at a significance level of 5% and an effect size of 0.80 (df=68; t=1.668).

The students were randomly assigned to the control and intervention groups. A randomization table was created using the website http://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx.

Conditions

  • Aspiration Skill Self-assessment
  • General Competence Belief

Interventions

OTHER

Computer-Assisted Simulation

Nursing students in the experimental group were informed about computer-based simulation. They were also informed about the aspiration skill form and general competency scale.

OTHER

Control grup

Nursing students in the control group were informed about the standard procedure/traditional method. They were also informed about the aspiration skill form and general competency scale.
