Nurse-physician communication skills can be improve through inter-professional team training. Simulation is often used to conduct these training. However, constraints to conduct these sessions such as scheduling and logistic arrangements have been widely reported. Thus with the advancement of technology in education, the use of virtual environment to conduct the team training is being explored and evaluated.

Primary | Demographics | Collection of participant demographic data. | Baseline | |
Primary | Communication skill performance | Participants nurse-doctor communication skill was measured using a validated team communication scale that was self-developed. It is a 7-item checklist with a 5-point scale. The score ranges from 5 to 35 with higher score indicating better nurse-doctor communication performance. | Post-test (immediately after simulation assessment) | |
Primary | Baseline (Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Team) | Measurement of participants' attitudes towards working in interprofessional care team using the 14-item Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Team questionnaire using a 5-point scale. The scores ranges from 14 to 70 with higher score indicating more positive attitudes. | Pre-test | |
Primary | Post-test (Change of Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Team from baseline) | Measurement of participants' attitudes towards working in interprofessional care team using the 14-item Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Team questionnaire using a 5-point scale. The scores ranges from 14 to 70 with higher score indicating more positive attitudes. | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Follow-up (Change of Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Team from baseline and post-test) | Measurement of participants attitudes towards working in interprofessional care team using the 14-item Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Team questionnaire using a 5-point scale. The scores ranges from 14 to 70 with higher score indicating more positive attitudes. | Follow-up (2-months after simulation training) | |
Primary | Baseline (Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale) | Measurement of participants behaviors, beliefs and attitudes in interprofessional socialization using the 24-item Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale questionnaire using a 7-point scale (1= not at all ; 7= to a very great extent; "not applicable" response is also available). The score ranges from 24 to 168 with higher score indicating greater presence of the attributes measured. | Pre-test | |
Primary | Post-test (Change of Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale from baseline) | Measurement of participants behaviors, beliefs and attitudes in interprofessional socialization using the 24-item Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale questionnaire using a 7-point scale (1= not at all ; 7= to a very great extent; "not applicable" response is also available). The score ranges from 24 to 168 with higher score indicating greater presence of the attributes measured. | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Follow-up (Change of Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale from baseline and post-test) | Measurement of participants behaviors, beliefs and attitudes in interprofessional socialization using the 24-item Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale questionnaire using a 7-point scale (1= not at all ; 7= to a very great extent; "not applicable" response is also available). The score ranges from 24 to 168 with higher score indicating greater presence of the attributes measured. | Follow-up (2-months after simulation training) | |
Primary | Pulse rate | Stress measurement parameter using a continuous monitoring smart watch | Pre-test | |
Primary | Pulse rate (Change of parameter from baseline) | Stress measurement parameter using a continuous monitoring smart watch | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Blood pressure (diastolic & systolic) | Stress measurement parameter using a sphygmomanometer | Pre-test | |
Primary | Blood pressure (diastolic & systolic) (Change of parameter from baseline) | Stress measurement parameter using a sphygmomanometer | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Baseline (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory) | Measurement of participants state anxiety were measured using the 20-items State-Trait Anxiety Inventory questionnaire using a 4 point likert scale (almost never-almost always). The score ranges from 20 to 80 with higher score indicating higher sense of anxiety. | Pre-test | |
Primary | Post-test (Change of State-Trait Anxiety Inventory from baseline) | Measurement of participants state anxiety were measured using the 20-items State-Trait Anxiety Inventory questionnaire using a 4 point likert scale (almost never-almost always). The score ranges from 20 to 80 with higher score indicating higher sense of anxiety. | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Baseline (Confidence and self-efficacy) | Measurement of participants confidence and self-efficacy was measured using a 5-items self-efficacy questionnaire through a 10-point likert scale ranging from scores ranging from 5 to 50 with higher score indicating better self-efficacy in their ability in contributing to patient-centered care in a multidisciplinary team. | Pre-test | |
Primary | Post-test (Change of Confidence and self-efficacy from baseline) | Measurement of participants confidence and self-efficacy was measured using a 5-items self-efficacy questionnaire through a 10-point likert scale ranging from scores ranging from 5 to 50 with higher score indicating better self-efficacy in their ability in contributing to patient-centered care in a multidisciplinary team. | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Baseline (Student Stereotype Rating) | Measurement of participants stereotype towards other health disciplines was measured using the 9-items Student Stereotype Rating Questionnaire through a 5-point Likert scale (1=very low to 5= very high). The score ranges from 9 to 45 with higher scores indicating higher perceived ability of the particular healthcare discipline by the other discipline. |

Primary | Post test (Change of Student Stereotype Rating from baseline) | Measurement of participants stereotype towards other health disciplines was measured using the 9-items Student Stereotype Rating Questionnaire through a 5-point Likert scale (1=very low to 5= very high). The score ranges from 9 to 45 with higher scores indicating higher perceived ability of the particular healthcare discipline by the other discipline. | Post-test (immediately after simulation training) | |
Primary | Follow up (Change of Student Stereotype Rating from baseline and post test) | Measurement of participants stereotype towards other health disciplines was measured using the 9-items Student Stereotype Rating Questionnaire through a 5-point Likert scale (1=very low to 5= very high). The score ranges from 9 to 45 with higher scores indicating higher perceived ability of the particular healthcare discipline by the other discipline. | Follow-up (2-months after simulation training) |
