The Attitudes and Practices of Nursing Students on Intimate Partner Violence

Nursing Students Clinical Trial

Official title: The Effect of Screen-based Simulation Method on the Attitudes and Practices of Nursing Students on Intimate Partner Violence

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of screen-based simulation method on nursing students' attitudes and practices about intimate partner violence against women.

Clinical Trial Description

Intimate partner violence (ipv) against women is characterized as a global epidemic in health care delivery due to its prevalence, high morbidity, and mortality. One of the first healthcare providers that victims interact with is nurses. Nurses should have sufficient knowledge and skills to fulfill their roles and responsibilities defined in the issue of ipv against women. Educational environments must provide nursing students with the opportunity to be aware of ipv against women and to manage cases. Institutions that add simulation content to their education programs have the potential to become the gold standard when preparing nursing students for case management of ipv against women. Screen-based simulations (SBSs) use available digital technology to represent patients, populations, or other healthcare encounters on a computer screen or a mobile tablet, smartphone, or other screen-based devices. Simulations using screens have advantages over mannequin-based simulations-the software is infinitely replicable, the simulation programs can be portable, they can be accessed asynchronously without a live instructor present, and the software can be distributed to many devices, and the programming can track massive amounts of usage data. The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of screen-based simulation method on nursing students' attitudes and practices about intimate partner violence against women. The intervention and control groups of the study with the pre-test, post-test randomized controlled experimental design will comprise fourth-year students attending a university's nursing faculty. Power analysis was performed to calculate the sample size and it was planned to include 63 students in the sample group. In the research, the intervention group will be trained on ipv through SBSs whereas the control group will be trained via online conference. The research outputs will be measured by Health Workers' Attitudes and Practices on Intimate Partner Violence Against Women Scale, Simulation Design Scale and Debriefing Experience Scale. ;
