Purpose
This scoping review aimed to explore the characteristics and educational effects of game-based virtual reality (VR) programs used in nursing education, providing foundational insights for future instructional design and research. Methods: Following the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews checklist, a comprehensive literature search was conducted across eight databases for studies published between April 2014 and March 2025. Studies were screened and selected using the population, concept, context framework. Twenty-four studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Results: Most of the 24 included studies targeted nursing students, with some involving practicing nurses. Interventions primarily employed immersive VR head-mounted displays and incorporated diverse game elements such as mission-based scenarios, challenges, feedback loops, and virtual patient interactions. Educational effects were categorized into cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. Improvements in knowledge acquisition, self-efficacy, learning motivation, and skill performance were consistently reported. Additionally, most studies reported enhanced learner satisfaction, engagement, and emotional immersion. However, limited evidence was found regarding teamwork and communication skills. Conclusion: Game-based VR programs show substantial potential as effective instructional strategies in nursing education. Their design features—including immediate feedback, repeatable immersive scenarios, and engaging game mechanics—support learner-centered and self-directed learning. Nevertheless, the current evidence base largely focuses on nursing students and short-term outcomes. Future studies should encompass diverse nursing populations and assess long-term effects and real-world applicability, particularly in team-based and clinical practice contexts.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to examine the experiences of nurse managers in clinical nursing education during an emerging infectious disease outbreak. Methods: Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 nurse managers from seven general or tertiary hospitals, each with 300 or more beds, in South Korea. Data were collected between February 17 and June 10, 2023, and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: Four themes and 11 subthemes were identified. Nurse managers faced significant challenges in departmental management during the infectious disease outbreak, encountered a wide range of student attitudes toward learning, adapted their teaching methods flexibly in response to changing infectious disease conditions, and ultimately found meaning in the irreplaceable value of clinical practice education. Conclusion: During the emerging infectious disease outbreak, nurse managers not only encountered substantial difficulties but also experienced professional growth as clinical nursing educators. To enhance clinical nursing education in such challenging environments, it is essential to minimize uncertainty caused by infectious diseases and foster positive perceptions among nursing students regarding clinical practice education under restrictive circumstances. Institutional support is also necessary to reduce the work burden on nurse managers.

Purpose
Falls and medication errors are the most common patient safety incidents globally. Kolb’s experiential learning theory supports the application of cognitive learning in clinical settings. This study examined the effectiveness of Experiential Learning–Based Fall and Medication Error Prevention Education (EFMPE), utilizing virtual reality and room of errors.
Methods
A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 28 fourth-year nursing students (15 experimental, 13 control). The experimental group participated in EFMPE from February 1 to 6, 2024, comprising six sessions of 2 hours each. The control group received traditional lectures. Safety control confidence and course interest were measured before and immediately after the intervention; safety control confidence was reassessed 6 weeks later.
Results
Both groups showed immediate improvement; however, only the experimental group sustained increased safety control confidence after 6 weeks (Wald χ²=13.21, p<.001). Course interest was significantly higher in the experimental group post-intervention (Wald χ²=10.64, p=.001).
Conclusion
These preliminary findings suggest that EFMPE potentially supports the prevention of falls and medication errors in clinical practice.

Purpose
This study was a scoping review aimed at evaluating Simulation-Based Education for recognizing and responding to deteriorating patients within Korean nursing school curricula, and at developing educational strategies for these competencies.
Methods
A literature search was conducted from April 1 to April 30, 2024. The review followed the scoping review framework by Arksey and O’Malley and the manual by the Joanna Briggs Institute. Relevant studies were identified through databases such as the Korean Medical Database, Korean Studies Information Service System, DataBase Periodical Information Academic, Research Information Sharing Service, ScienceOn, and the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature.
Results
Eleven studies published from 2010 to 2019 were reviewed. The simulations typically included several lectures and practice sessions on advanced cardiopulmonary life support before the simulation exercises, which were then repeated. Cardiac arrest was frequently used as a scenario subject. The learning outcomes focused on the cognitive and psychomotor domains, as well as self-efficacy.
Conclusion
Although simulation for recognizing and responding to deteriorating patients was available in Korean nursing school curricula, it was infrequently incorporated as a regular part of the training. Future initiatives should include adding educational content to enhance nursing students' competencies in recognizing and responding to deteriorating patient simulations. Subsequent studies should assess the effectiveness of these educational methods.

Purpose
This study aims to explore the relationship between the discharge process and two-year prognosis in patients with Heart Failure (HF) who were hospitalized because of HF exacerbation. Methods Medical records were reviewed to identify patients admitted for HF exacerbation. Information regarding the following discharge processes was collected: follow-up visits, discharge educational contents, and the presence of family caregivers during patient education. HF-related events, including emergency department visits, readmissions, or death because of HF, were defined as a composite of events. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model was used after adjusting for covariates to explore the association between the discharge process and HF-related events. Results A total of 201 patients were included in this study. In the two-year follow-up periods, 41 patients (20.4%) experienced at least one HF-related event. Follow-up visits were scheduled at an average of 8.11±2.92 days after discharge. Approximately 95.0% of the patients received discharge education with an average of 1.66±1.04 topics, and 69.7% of the families participated in this educational activity. In the multivariate Cox regression model, not having family members during education was associated with a longer time to HF-related events (hazard ratio: 2.09; 95% confidence interval: 1.001~4.346). However, follow-up visits and the amount of educational content received were not associated with time to HF-related events. Conclusion The presence of family caregivers during education appears to be a protective factor against adverse prognosis in patients with HF. Our results highlight the importance of family engagement during discharg

Purpose
This study aimed to review the effectiveness of delirium education programs for nurses in acute hospitals.
Methods
The inclusion criteria were studies on delirium education programs for nurses published in English and Korean from 2012 to 2022. A literature search was conducted in the RISS, KISS, DBpia, PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Web of Science databases using the key words of "delirium", "nurse", and "education". Qualitative appraisal of studies was conducted using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized trials (RoB 2) and the Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool translated by National Evidence-based Healthcare Collaborating Agency (NECA). For meta-analysis, the effect size of the intervention was calculated as standardized mean difference.
Results
Eighteen studies were selected for the systematic review. While the contents of the education programs were similar, the teaching methods were different. Interventions implemented included traditional learning, e-learning, and blended learning. Teaching methods of delirium education programs for nurses included lecture, discussion, practice, simulation, role-play, and coaching. The systematic review found that delirium education programs for nurses effectively increased post-intervention outcomes in 17 studies. Delirium education programs for nurses have benefits regarding delirium knowledge and performance. In four studies, delirium education program interventions improved delirium nursing performance (95% CI: 0.48~2.44, p=.003).
Conclusion
These results demonstrate the need for a standardized delirium education program. It is recommended that further studies evaluating the patient outcome effects of delirium education programs should be conducted.

Purpose
This study introduces information value chain analysis by identifying essential information for use in gout care management. Part I reviews the essential concepts of information value chain analysis first introduced by Porter. Part II applies the analysis to determine the information values of patient health information and explores ways in which health information technologies can be best utilized to provide that information to patients with gout. Methods We combined value chain analysis with natural language processing and machine learning techniques to develop algorithms that can identify patients with gout flares using clinical notes. As one of the first signs that the disease was not being controlled, variables found to be associated with gout flares were considered valuable information for patients with gout. Results The best performing model, in terms of both gout flare prediction and association identification, was the comprehensive model that not only included concepts from all stages of the value chain but also designated natural language processing concepts from every care stage as surrogate variables. Additionally, all administrative codes traditionally associated with gout and its treatment were included as surrogate outcome variables. Conclusion This study introduced information value chain analysis and applied it to develop a computer-based method with theoretical underpinnings to identify the concepts associated with gout flares. The findings can be used as a starting point for filtering the vast amounts of information patients must go through and identifying the most valuable information for patient with gout to adequately manage their symptoms.

Purpose
Information value is created by providing care for specific medical conditions. To assess the appropriate content and time of delivery, a research framework to examine information values at different stages of the care continuum is needed. This study identified essential information to recommend for different stages of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) management.
Methods
Using Porter's value chain analysis, we conducted a content analysis of the research literature, clinical practice guidelines, and patient education materials in an education-enabled environment regarding patient with SLE. We also used a natural language processing technique to automatically map the essential information identified into authorized concepts in the National Library of Medicine’s Unified Medical Language Systems.
Results
The essential contents in the diagnosis stage pertained to a general understanding of disease manifestation such as SLE definition, pathophysiology, etiology, prognosis, and progress. The intervening stage highlights information about prominent spheres of therapeutic regimens and administration as well as diverse care providers with relevance to their specific roles. While screening information, such as self-awareness of SLE signs, is valued prior to a clinical visit, the monitoring information follows clinical visits to avoid flaring events. The key concepts identified were "butterfly rash" (C0277942), "anti-inflammatory drugs" (C0003211), "SLE" (C0024141), and "antinuclear antibodies" (C0151480).
Conclusion
Communication of essential information identified at appropriate care stages can increase patient knowledge and reduce anxiety levels to improve self-care.

Purpose
This study aimed to explore the clinical practice experience of nursing students during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Methods
We used the qualitative content analysis steps presented by Graneheim and Lundman. The participants were 11 nursing students from two universities. We collected data by iterative work through in-depth interviews and observations and analyzed it using content analysis and dialogue between the authors to enhance interpretation.
Results
Four themes emerged from the participants' clinical practice experiences during the pandemic: increased uncertainty in clinical practice and daily life, reduced opportunities for practice experiences and networking, differences in the meaning of clinical practice, and new implications of clinical practice.
Conclusion
Participants were experiencing clinical practice, including themselves and the surrounding world, under the strong influence of the COVID-19. Therefore, the development of practice guidelines that can be communicated quickly between institutions, students, and universities and cope flexibly with the pandemic alarm levels will reduce uncertainty in clinical practice and minimize changes in activities and networking. Additionally, the nurses’ professional intuition should be improved by expanding the awareness of nurse roles in clinical practice during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Purpose
The aims of this study are to identify current problems of nursing education as perceived by nursing educators and nurses, and to suggest developmental strategies for effective undergraduate nursing education in Korea. Methods: This study is a descriptive study to investigate how nursing education is perceived by nursing educators and nurses, including the performance of core competencies, and curriculum improvement points, and gaps between the two. We surveyed 71 faculties in nursing colleges, and 282 nurses with less than three years of clinical experience in general and tertiary hospitals. Statistical analyses were conducted using descriptive statistics, independent two-sample t-test, and Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA). Results: According to the majority of nursing educators (91.4%), there is a necessity of curriculum reform toward an integrated curriculum based on concepts (58.9%), and the keywords for future nursing education are professionalism, leadership, and ethics. They also impressed upon the necessity of information technology as an additional field of education (73.2%). Nurses responded that the most helpful theoretical and practical subjects were adult nursing (35.5%), and simulation practicum (35.4%), respectively. Both nursing educators and nurses expressed the necessity of high-fidelity simulation. The IPA results showed that performance was low compared to importance in all items. The statistically significant gaps between nursing educators and nurses were core knowledge and technical skill. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, future undergraduate nursing education should consider a concept-based curriculum, field-oriented clinical practice, learner-centered education, competency-based curriculum, information technology education, and inter-professional education to respond preemptively to future healthcare environments.

Purpose
This study aimed to review the outcomes of nurse residency programs for new graduate nurses. Methods: The inclusion criteria were peer-reviewed articles on the outcomes of nurse residency programs for new graduate nurses published in English from 2010 to 2019. A literature search was conducted in the PubMed, CINAHL, Science Direct, EMBASE, and PsycINFO databases using the search terms "nurse residency program," "new graduate nurse," and "transition to practice program." A qualitative appraisal of studies was conducted using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized trials (RoB 2) and the Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool. Results: Twenty-five studies were selected. The systematic review found that nurse residency programs effectively increased the competence and confidence of new graduate nurses in 14 studies. Job satisfaction, job stress and anxiety, and support showed different results, which were increased, decreased, or statistically insignificant after the programs. In three studies, institutional outcomes, including the retention rate in 16 surveys and hospital cost savings, were improved. Patient safety had different results depending upon the study. Conclusion: This study's results can provide evidence for the necessity of a standardized nursing education program and for developing a system for evaluating its effectiveness to improve the quality of nursing education.

Purpose
This study was a scoping review designed to identify research trends in education programs for newly graduated nurses in Korea.
Methods
The methodological framework was based on a previous work by Arksey and O’Malley. The studies reviewed were found through electronic databases, such as DBpia, RISS, PubMed, and CINAHL. The scope of the data was from January 2000 to December 2019. Each study was analyzed, and extracted data were abstracted into the following domains: publication characteristics, study design, program details, and program evaluation.
Results
The 26 studies were reviewed. The majority of the educational domain was competency enhancement education. The following teaching methods were used: lectures, demonstrations, simulations, team based learning, and discussions. Most educational program evaluations involved reaction and learning evaluation.
Conclusion
Appropriate education is essential for newly graduated nurses to adapt to their work. However, there was a lack of research on education programs for newly graduated nurses to adapt to their work before gaining clinical experience. Results indicate that it is necessary to develop various education programs and program evaluations. Future researchers should focus on nursing education programs to enhance the clinical competency of newly graduated nurses.

Purpose
Since anticancer medication nursing is an evaluation area for accreditation by medical institutions in Korea, all clinical nurses are required to attend an annual classroom lecture. However, it is necessary to reconsider the methods and effects of this requirement. This study was conducted to develop a web-based anticancer chemotherapy nursing course for clinical nurses and to examine its effectiveness in terms of job knowledge, self-efficacy, and nursing performance.

A randomized controlled design using random selection was utilized. The content was developed into 5 modules featuring basic and advanced learning, and the total learning time was 80 minutes. To test the effect of the multimedia contents, a randomized control group pretest-posttest study design was adopted. Clinical nurses with less than five years of experience were recruited from a university-affiliated hospital and randomly assigned to an experimental (n=28) or control (n=28) group. The experimental group autonomously learned web-based anticancer chemotherapy nursing for two weeks through a website.
Results
There was a statistically significant increase in the job knowledge of the experimental group receiving the classroom lecture (p=.001). However, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in self-efficacy (p=.055) and nursing performance (p=.359).
Conclusion
This study found that web-based self-learning could be a useful learning strategy for the anticancer chemotherapy and nursing education that clinical nurses must complete annually. However, it is necessary to verify the effect on self-efficacy and nursing performance through repeated studies.

Purpose
This study examined physical activity and health-related factors affecting Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in older adults with lower educational levels.
Methods
Data were obtained from the Seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (Ⅶ-1, 2016; Ⅶ-2, 2017). The sample consisted of 2,985 individuals aged 65 years or older, and the focus was on 1,788 older adults with low educational levels. The data were analyzed using an independent t-test, x2 test, and hierarchical multiple linear regression using the SPSS/WIN 24.0 program.
Results
The results of the hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that subjective perceived health, cognitive stress, number of chronic diseases, and daily activity explained 25% of the variance in HRQoL after controlling for age and gender. In final model, physical activity types explained an additional 1% of the variance in HRQoL; walking was a significant predictor. Especially, among the various physical activity types, walking proved important for HRQoL. While aerobic exercise and strength exercise were associated with health status, in the hierarchical multiple regression analysis, they did not have an impact on HRQoL.
Conclusion
A walking-centric health care program to improve physical activity should be considered for HRQoL improvement in older adults with lower educational levels. Further research should consider how aerobic exercise and strength exercise could contribute to HRQoL improvement in this population.

PURPOSE
Standardized patient-based simulation is known to be a useful tool in the training of nursing students; however, few studies have examined the use of this method in oncology nursing education. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of an oncology nursing simulation program that used standardized patients on knowledge, nursing performance ability, and satisfaction among nursing students.
METHODS
This study used a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The experimental group (n=25) participated in an 8-hour oncology nursing simulation program that consisted of a lecture (2 hours) and a four-session simulation program(6 hours). The control group (n=29) received case-based learning (6 hours) and a lecture (2 hours). Knowledge level was assessed with a 33-item knowledge assessment multiple-choice questionnaire. Nursing performance ability was assessed with a nursing performance ability checklist. Educational satisfaction was evaluated using the 12-item Course Satisfaction Evaluation tool. Data were collected from June to July of 2012 and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and repeated measures analysis of variance.
RESULTS
The experimental group showed significantly higher nursing performance ability and satisfaction compared with the control group. Knowledge of oncology nursing increased in both the experimental and control groups.
CONCLUSION
An oncology nursing simulation program was more effective than case-based learning in improving nursing student performance and was found to produce high satisfaction.

PURPOSE
Nurses lead Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) in the healthcare system. To facilitate the evidence-based nursing process, nurses must have the knowledge and skills to formulate clinical questions in a searchable format. The purpose of this study was to develop an e-learning program on steps of EBP, especially focusing on clinical questioning to assess its effects.
METHODS
This research utilized a quasi-experimental study with a nonequivalent control group pre-post test design. The experimental group was provided an e-learning program with case-based animation. The control group was provided written material about EBP. The e-learning program was performed from October to November 2015. To evaluate the effects of the program, knowledge of EBP, attitude towards EBP, practice of EBP, clinical questioning confidence, and clinical questioning knowledge were evaluated.
RESULTS
There were significant differences in attitude towards EBP (t=2.08, p=.042), practice of EBP (t=2.06, p=.044), clinical questioning confidence (t=2.05, p=.045) and clinical questioning knowledge (t=2.08, p=.042). However, there was no significant difference between the experimental and control groups in knowledge of EBP (t=1.20, p=.237).
CONCLUSION
The e-learning program with case-based animation was an effective method to provide the EBP education to nurses. Further researches are needed to disseminate the case-based education to nurses and nursing students and to develop more diverse educational media.

PURPOSE
This study aimed to investigate the effects of a video-centered nursing education program on anxiety, uncertainty, and self-care in patients undergoing cataract surgery.
METHODS
A video-centered nursing education program was developed. The program consisted of a video and leaflet. The video was in 4 sections (introduction, pre-operation examination, operation, and post-operation self-care) for a total of 8 minutes. The leaflet included information on cataracts and self-care. The program was performed from January to April 2017. The participants were scheduled to undergo cataract surgery. The experimental group (n=26) underwent the program before the operation and the control group (n=30) received usual care at Bundang Jesaeng Hospital. In the pre-test, general characteristics, trait-state anxiety, and uncertainty were measured. The state anxiety, uncertainty, and self-care were evaluated as post-test. Data were analyzed using Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Shapiro-Wilk, χ2, Fisher's exact, t-, and Mann-Whitney U tests and covariance analysis.
RESULTS
In the post-test, there were significant differences between groups on uncertainty (F=8.10, p=.006) and self-care (F=11.06, p=.002).
CONCLUSION
The program was effective in reducing uncertainty and improving self-care in patients undergoing cataract surgery. These results will help to reduce nurse shortages and excessive workload and enable efficient clinical practice.

PURPOSE
This study aimed to develop a navigation program for family caregivers of stroke patients admitted to a rehabilitation hospital and evaluate differences in caregiver outcomes before and after the intervention.
METHODS
The navigation program consists of education, demonstration and return demonstration. To evaluate the program, we conducted a quasi-experimental study in 44 caregivers (22 experimental group received the navigation program vs. 22 controls group did not received). Caregivers completed the burden, anxiety, depression, self efficacy, caregiving mastery, quality of life, and patient's Activities of Daily Living (ADL). Data were collected using self-report structured questionnaires. The data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 21.0 with the χ2-test, and independent t-test.
RESULTS
Compared with the control group, caregivers who received the navigation program reported significant decrease in caregiver burden, depressive symptoms and anxiety and significant improvement in their mastery, self-efficacy, quality of life and patient's ADL.
CONCLUSION
Delivering the navigation program to family caregivers of stroke patients in a rehabilitation hospital setting was feasible. Our results provide preliminary support for the navigation program to reduce negative outcomes (e.g., burden, anxiety, depression) and improve positive outcomes (e.g., mastery, self efficacy, quality of life, patient's activities of daily living) in family caregivers who experience first stroke diagnosis of their loved one.

PURPOSE
This study aimed to assess the educational needs that should be considered while developing an occupational education program for nursing students.
METHODS
Participants included 200 nursing students and 40 nursing professionals. The data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 24.0 and AMOS 24.0 program, using descriptive statistics, a paired t-test, Kendall's coefficient of concordance, and confirmatory factor analysis. The Borich's Needs Assessment Model, the Locus for Focus Model, and the Jo and Lee's Model also were used. Data were collected from May 1 to 30, 2017 using a structured self-report questionnaire.
RESULTS
A significant difference was found in scores on ‘important’ and ‘present’ levels of occupational education needs for both nursing students and professionals, on all items of occupational education needs. Results relative to the Borich's model indicated that ‘stress management in the nursing practice fields’ had the highest priority rating among both nursing students (5.65) and nursing professionals (6.40), and ‘establishing my career roadmap’ (6.04) had the highest priority rating in the Jo and Lee's Model.
CONCLUSION
The present results are expected to be used as baseline data for the development of an occupational education program for nursing students.

PURPOSE
The aim of the study was to examine effects of a fall prevention education program among inpatients over 65 years old.
METHODS
A quasi- experimental study with two intervention groups and a comparison was used. One hundred and forty-three participants recruited from one university hospital were assigned to one of three groups: Video-only education (n=49), video plus leaflet education (n=45), and a comparison group who received a routine education (n=49). The data collection period was from March to August 2016.
RESULTS
The two intervention groups reported higher scores in fall prevention behaviors than the comparison group (F=19.83, p < .001). Participants who viewed the video and received the leaflet education reported higher scores than those with video only education. The scores of attitudes toward falls (F=16.05, p < .001), and satisfaction with education (F=40.02, p < .001) in both intervention groups were also significantly higher than the comparison group, with no significant difference between the two intervention groups.
CONCLUSION
The fall prevention program was effective in improving fall-related attitude and satisfaction among elderly inpatients. Since the video plus leaflet education was most effective in improving prevention behaviors, it might be included in routine orientation on admission for the elderly.

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of sexual health program for men with rectal cancer resection based on sexual function, self-esteem, depression, and marital intimacy.
METHODS
Using a quasi-experiment design, the intervention group (n=32) participated in the sexual health program based on PLISSIT (Permission, Limited Information, Specific Suggestions, Intensive Therapy) model. They received the program three times between August 2014 and March 2015. The comparison group (n=30) received a general educational program for rectal cancer. Four survey questionnaires such as International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), Self-Esteem Scale, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depressing Scale (CES-D), Marital Intimacy were used to measure the four key variables.
RESULTS
After the sexual health program, the intervention group showed statistically positive effect for the sexual function (F=4.14, p=.046), self-esteem (F=16.71, p < .001), depression (F=12.56, p=.001), and marital intimacy (F=12.45, p=.001) than the comparison group.
CONCLUSION
Sexual health program should be consistently provided for men with rectal cancer resection since the intervention group reported better self-esteem, less depression, more intimacy and better sexual functioning.

PURPOSE
Purpose of the study was to identify the effect of the Comprehensive Education Program (CEP) on intraprocedure anxiety, post-procedure uncertainty and athletic performance of back strengthening of patients undergo spinal nerve block (SNB).
METHODS
The participants (experimental group=33, control group=33) were recruited from a university hospital in G metropolitan city. Data were collected from July to November 2015. The experimental group was individually provided with a booklet/motion picture about the SNB and back strengthening exercise training before the SNB. This group also received a leaflet about back strengthening exercise post SNB. The Anxiety-Visual Analog Scale (A-VAS), the Mishel adapted uncertainty scale and newly created knowledge scale/athletic performance checklist were utilized as our study tools.
RESULTS
Intra-procedure anxiety score (F=25.70, p<.001), post-procedure uncertainty score (F=82.56, p<.001), post-procedure knowledge score (F=14.63, p<.001) and athletic performance rate of back strengthening (p=.003) of the experimental group showed statistically significant differences in comparison with the control group.
CONCLUSION
This CEP is a cost and time-effective intervention for patients who undergo spinal injections, so it should be actively utilized as an educational management strategy in outpatient.

PURPOSE
This study was conducted to test whether Health Communication Assessment Tool (HCAT) developed by Campbell et al. in 2013 can be applied to assess Korean nursing students' communication skills in simulation education.
METHODS
The content validity of the Korean version of HCAT (K-HCAT) was evaluated through expert's assessment and a principal component analysis was conducted for testing construct validity. The convergent validity was tested by measuring relationship between the K-HCAT and those of existing communication assessment tool for standardized patient instruction. The evaluation was done by surveying 154 senior students from four different nursing colleges.
RESULTS
The K-HCAT was condensed into 15 items from the original 22 HCAT items. Four factors were extracted from the principal component analysis; factor loadings ranged from .50 to .83; cumulative explained variance was 62.65%. Four factors were entitled as 'relationship building', 'empowering', 'empathy/response', and 'education/feedback'. Cronbach's α for sub-dimensions ranged from .73 to .84. An evaluation of convergent validity showed that the scores of the K-HCAT were moderately correlated with those of an assessment tool for standardized patient instruction.
CONCLUSION
The K-HCAT can be used as an effective tool for assessing nursing students' communication skills in various kinds of simulation educations Further research is needed to test the consistency of the K-HCAT.

PURPOSE
Knowledge, clinical reasoning, and self-confidence are the basis for undergraduate education, and determine students\' level of competence. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of the addition of a one-time simulation experience to the didactic curriculum on nursing students' knowledge acquisition, clinical reasoning skill, and self-confidence.
METHODS
Using a quasi-experimental crossover design consisted of intervention and wait-list control groups. Participants were non-randomly assigned to the first intervention group (Group A, n=48) or the wait-list control group (Group B, n=46). Knowledge level was assessed through a multiple choice written test, and clinical reasoning skill was measured using a nursing process model-based rubric. Self-confidence was measured using a self-reported questionnaire.
RESULTS
Results indicated that students in the simulation group scored significantly higher on clinical reasoning skill and related knowledge than those in the didactic lecture group; no difference was found for self-confidence.
CONCLUSION
Findings suggest that undergraduate nursing education requires a simulation-based curriculum for clinical reasoning development and knowledge acquisition.

Few instruments are available to measure nurses' perceptions of cultural competence in South Korea. Furthermore, the equivalence of factors between original and translated instruments has not been evaluated. The specific aims of this study were to identify the validity and reliability of a Korean version of the Cultural Awareness Scale (K-CAS) and to evaluate the equivalence of factors between the original CAS and the K-CAS. A total of 515 nursing students completed the 26-item K-CAS, 28-item Caffrey Cultural Competence in Healthcare Scale (CCCHS), and eight-item Openness to Diversity and Challenge Scale (ODCS). The K-CAS exhibited good reliability (alpha=.83) and construct validity by correlating with the CCCHS (r=.344, p<.001) and ODCS (r=.394, p<.001). Confirmatory factor analysis results of the K-CAS confirmed the same factor structure as the original CAS. The K-CAS could be a useful tool to assess the concept of cultural competence among nursing students and nurses.

PURPOSE
This study was aimed to develop frequently-used clinical scenarios and scoring rubrics to assess core basic nursing skills in adult health nursing clinical practice for clinical evaluation based on program learning outcomes (PO).
METHODS
This study was a methodological research combining focus group interviews and questionnaires to select and construct scenarios. Data were collected from clinical practitioners, adult health nursing professors, and new nurses from November, 2013 to April, 2014. The developed scenarios and rubrics were applied to nursing students by way of showing an example.
RESULTS
The 12 frequently-used clinical scenarios were developed. The proportion of the evaluation rubrics were 30% for clinical instructors where as 70% for college instructors. In order for students to achieve the important learning outcomes from the courses for clinical practice, four program outcomes (POs) were selected as well as a rubric for each POs was developed. Students who had situation-based clinical practices showed higher levels of satisfaction on mastery of core basic nursing skills and communication skills.
CONCLUSION

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to explore the nurses'perception of the importance of evaluating continuing nursing education programs.
METHODS
Subjects were 465 nurses enrolled in continuing nursing education programs at five university hospitals in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. Data were collected from September 20, 2011 to October 13, 2011. The instrument was developed by the author through a literature review. Content validity was established from a panel of six experts. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 18.0 program.
RESULTS
The purpose of the program was rated as the most important domain by the subjects. Interestingly, 'program outcome' and 'effectiveness of program' were ranked below the mean (M=3.64+/-0.75). These two domains were influenced by the district of work and the type of institution. The position of the participants at their institutions made the significant differences on their perception of 'program purpose.' CONCLUSION: The results of this study might aid us to have better understanding for what nurses perceive the importance of evaluating continuing nursing education programs. This information might be able to be used for improving programs. Further studies are needed to explore the validity of the instruments to evaluate continuing nursing education programs.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an educational program about reproductive health promotion on sexual knowledge and attitudes of university students. METHODS: The sample included 79 students of all grades from 3 universities in Korea. Data were collected from 8th to 11th of January, 2008 by using a structured questionnaire administered before and after the educational program. The data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 12.0 program. RESULTS: The students' scores on sexual knowledge increased, and attitudes toward sexuality changed at the completion of the educational program. The program was especially effective in 'physiology', 'contraception and abortion' and 'venereal disease and AIDS' among sexual knowledge, and in 'intercourse' and 'sexual morality' among sexual attitudes. CONCLUSION: The results of this study show that an educational program about reproductive health increases sexual knowledge and changes the sexual attitudes of university students.

PURPOSE
This study was to explore the process of belongingness experienced during the apprentice course for advanced practice nurses. METHODS: Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 people, who attended the apprentice course for advanced practice nurse, from three schools in Seoul from Jan. 19 until Feb. 25, 2010. The constant comparative method was adapted for data analysis. RESULTS: The core category of this study was the 'learning-connected process' and this process was categorized into three stages. These stages were: going along with the atmosphere, exchanging, and integrating. During the course, the 'uncomfortable participation' as the central idea meant a sense of responsibility and a tension about practice learning of the participant and was influenced by the quality of interaction and the distinct instruction of learning contents. Belongingness was characterized by the Joyful and happy participation which linked to the motivation of new learning opportunities. CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that there is a process to belongingness and a close relationship between belongingness and learning. Further studies would suggest exploring the components of belongingness, a concept analysis and incorporating the belongingness scale with other qualitative research on this topic.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of an individualized cardiac health education on self-care behavior and serum cholesterol levels patients with coronary artery disease.
METHODS
Twenty-two patients in the intervention group and 22 in the control group were assigned randomly in this study. The intervention group received an individualized cardiac health education program which consisted of four different sessions for a total of four sessions. Specifically, two sessions occurred during the patients' hospitalization with a third session at the time of discharge with a fourth session scheduled via telephone one week post discharge. Data were collected through a questionnaire for self-care behavior and a blood test for total cholesterol at the time of admission and the two weeks after discharge. The questionnaire for self-care behavior was a standardized instrument and serum cholesterol was measured by Accutrend GC (Roche, Germany).
RESULTS
Self-care behavior scores included diet, medication, exercise, risk factor, blood pressure measurement, and visits to hospital were significantly more in the experimental group compared to the control group.
CONCLUSION
The above findings indicate that the individualized cardiac health education was effective in increasing of self-care behavior.

PURPOSE

CONCLUSION
The results of this study suggested that further education should be provided to the patients underwent PCI regarding medication, smoking cessation, daily life and exercise at a time of 6 months after discharge in order to increase patient compliance of health behavior.

PURPOSE
This study was conducted to develop a Web-based learning program on cardiopulmonary emergency care for clinical nurses and to evaluate learners' responses.
METHODS
Based on the assessment of learning needs of clinical nurses, a total of three self-directed learning modules were developed according to the procedure of the ADDIE (assessment, design, development, implementation, & evaluation) model.
RESULTS
Each learning module included the emergency treatments and drugs used in the real patients' situations with cardiopulmonary crisis, which had been adopted from the emergency department of a C University hospital located in G-city. Real video clips for endotracheal intubation and ACLS (advanced cardiac life support) were developed with the help of the staff of the department of emergency medicine using a human simulator, SimMan(R). The program published on the Web was evaluated by 20 clinical nurses who are working in the emergency department and wards of a C-University hospital. About 80% of the respondents were satisfied with the program contents, design, and learning strategy.
CONCLUSION
Web-based learning programs on cardiopulmonary emergency care are needed for clinical nurses as educational material for staff education to increase their knowledge for making immediate clinical decisions and in giving skilled care in emergency situations.

PURPOSE

PURPOSE
The purposes of this study were as follows; 1) To review the definitions of critical thinking from various perspectives, 2) To examine the critical thinking measurements throughout nursing research, and 3) To review the nursing studies with regard to critical thinking.
METHODS
This study was a literature review with regard to the critical thinking in nursing in aspects of conceptual meaning, measurements, and research.
RESULTS
The definition of critical thinking in nursing included decision making in clinical setting, inference with logical construct to increase nursing quality, interpretation in the context, and evaluation. The critical thinking was a core concept, which meant not only simple nursing process, but included decision making ability. The critical thinking has been conceptualized by both critical thinking disposition and skill. However, there was no nursing specified critical thinking measurement. Critical thinking research has been conducted to describe critical thinking disposition and critical thinking, to determine relationships between critical thinking and clinical competency, and to evaluate the effectiveness of educational programs.
CONCLUSION
The instruments for measuring critical thinking disposition and skill that contain cultural difference and clinical specificity need to be developed to measure critical thinking and increase it.
