Control group

Chicken legs will be used for each student in the study. Intermittent and continuous suture techniques will be studied on the incision made on the chicken leg.

The inventory was developed by Spielberger et al. in 1970. An adaptation, validity, and reliability study of the State-Trait Anxiety Scale in Turkish was conducted by Oner and Le Compte in 1983. The scale consists of two subdimensions: the state anxiety has 20 items and is used to determine what is felt at a specific moment under certain conditions, and the trait anxiety has 20 items and is used to determine what has been felt in the last 7 days. High scores from each subscale indicate a high level of anxiety.

STAI-S consist of 20 items with four points Likert scales, each (not at all, somewhat, moderately so, very much so). Scores thus range between 20, indicating a low level of anxiety and 80, indicating a high level.

Visual Analog Scale is a 10-cm-long measurement tool. The left end of the scale reads "I am not satisfied at all" and the right end reads "very satisfied". A high score on the scale indicated a high level of satisfaction and a score of 0 pointed to no satisfaction.

Visual Analog Scale (VAS)- assessed by adequate vision. For each item, students rated their sense of self-sufficiency on a scale of 0 (very inadequate) to 10 (very adequate).

This instrument is a 13-item scale used to measure student satisfaction with the simulation activity (5 items) and self-confidence in learning (8 items). Responses are rated on a 5-point Likert scale with values ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Higher scores indicate higher satisfaction and greater levels of self confidence.
