    Evaluation of the Effect of Simulation-Based Training Provided to Nurses in the Hospital Environment on Child Neglect and Abuse: Quasi-Experimental Research
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2026) Sanci, Yagmur; Genc, Canan; Kokkiz, Rukiye
    Background: Child neglect and abuse are major public health concerns, and nurses play a critical role in early recognition. Simulation-based training is a promising method to strengthen knowledge and preparedness. Methods: This quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study was conducted with 20 nurses working in a pediatric emergency unit of a state hospital between March and April 2024. Data were collected using a socio-demographic form and the "Scale for Determining the Knowledge Level of Nurses and Midwives in Diagnosing the Symptoms and Risks of Child Abuse and Neglect." Nurses participated in simulation-based training with a structured scenario, followed by debriefing and posttest. Results: Knowledge scores significantly increased after training, particularly in recognizing physical and behavioral symptoms of abuse. However, improvements were limited in identifying children at higher risk of neglect and abuse. Conclusion: Simulation-based training enhances nurses' knowledge of child abuse recognition and should be integrated into nursing education and in-service programs to improve clinical preparedness.

    The Effect of Simulation-Based Electroconvulsive Therapy Education on Perception and Knowledge of Nursing Students: a Semiexperimental Study
    (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2025) Dikeç, G.; Şan, E.Ö.
    Objectives Despite the recognized benefits and safety of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for treating mental disorders, negative perceptions persist among both the public and mental health professionals. This stigma is often rooted in historical practices and media portrayals, despite modern advancements in the technique. This study aimed to assess the impact of simulation-based ECT education on nursing students' perceptions and knowledge regarding ECT before and after the procedure. Methods This study was planned to use a single-group pretest and posttest quasi-experimental design with a 3-month follow-up. Simulation-based ECT education involved 1 hour of theoretical instruction followed by hands-on learning using a high-fidelity mannequin. Final-year nursing students enrolled in a psychiatric and mental health nursing course were examined on their knowledge and perceptions of ECT before, immediately after, and 3 months following the intervention. Results Students reported statistically significant improvements in their perception and knowledge levels after participating in the simulation-based ECT education. The results were similar at the 3-month follow-up. Conclusions Simulation-based ECT education can be effectively integrated into both undergraduate and graduate nursing curricula to foster positive perceptions and enhance knowledge about ECT.

    Safe Drug Administration in Pediatric Nursing Education: A Quasi- Experimental Design Study
    (Atatürk Univ, 2023) Kan Onturk, Zehra; Sanci, Yagmur; Öntürk, Zehra Kan
    Objective: This study was carried out to determine the correlation between the performance of students who received simulation-based pediatric nursing education and their self-confidence regarding safe drug administrations during simulation. Methods: The study was conducted in pretest and posttest quasi-experimental design and carried out on a sample group (n = 39) based on criteria established at the Nursing Department of a foundation university. Students were subjected to a simulation of "Drug Management in Children" within the scope of the pediatric nursing course. The researchers collected data through a checklist, a self-confidence scale, and tests (pretest and posttest) used in the simulation application on "Drug Management in Children." Results: The students obtained a mean score of 129.00 +/- 14.36 on the self-confidence scale. The posttest scores of the students were statistically significantly higher than the pretest scores (P = .011). The performance mean score of the students from the simulation checklist for safe drug administrations was 36.28 +/- 6.65. There was no statistically significant correlation between the scores from the self-confidence scale, the pretest, the posttest, and the checklist scores (P > .05). Conclusion: This study underlines the importance of having a suitable level of self-confidence for students' educational gains and also indicated that there was no correlation between self-confidence and performance.

    An International Multicenter Mental Health Standardized Patient Simulation on Nursing Students? Beliefs Toward Mental Health Conditions
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2023) San, Eda Ozkara; Dikec, Gul; Ata, Elvan E.; Ozkara San, Eda
    Background: Negative beliefs can be a barrier to provide quality nursing care for persons living with mental health conditions. This international SP simulation study explored nursing students' beliefs toward persons with mental health conditions in the United States (US) and Turkey before and after participating in a mental health standardized patient simulation. Methods: A quasi-experimental study design was used in two settings in two countries. Measures included a socio-demographic survey and the Beliefs toward Mental Illness scale. Results were analyzed using paired sample t-test, independent t-test, and chi-square tests. Results: Students in the US had significantly lessened negative attitudes toward persons with mental health conditions when compared to the Turkey group. Conclusion: SP simulation may offer opportunities to improve nursing students' beliefs toward persons with mental health conditions.
