Summary

The purpose of this experimental study is to investigate the effects of standardized patient simulation and peer simulation on midwifery students' family planning counseling and material development skills.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Do standardized patient simulation and peer simulation training affect midwifery students' family planning counseling skills?

Do standardized patient simulation and peer simulation training affect midwifery students' material development skills?

The researchers will compare simulation groups with a control group to determine whether simulation training improves midwifery students' family planning counseling and material development skills.

Participants:

For the peer simulation, three volunteer second-year midwifery students will portray a peer in the client role.

Three volunteer undergraduate/master's students with prior theater training will portray a standardized patient in the client role.

The control group, without receiving simulation training, will prepare educational material on general family planning counseling after the simulation sessions and present this material to their peers in a classroom setting as a counseling practice.

Simulation groups will complete the State/Trait Anxiety Inventory before simulation and family planning counseling, and the control group will complete the State/Trait Anxiety Inventory before family planning counseling.
