The Effect of Video-Based Virtual Reality Education on Self-Confidence and Motivation in Nursing Students: The Case of Peripheral Venous Catheterization

This study is a randomized controlled, parallel patterned, single-blind experimental study conducted to investigate the effects of video-based virtual reality (VR) training on self-confidence and motivation levels of nursing students regarding peripheral venous catheterization (PVC) skills. The intervention group will receive video-based training via VR headsets, while the control group will be presented with the same content via traditional face-to-face narration and demonstration. Self-confidence and motivation levels before and after the training will be assessed with valid scales. The study is expected to contribute to the development of innovative technology-supported teaching strategies in nursing education.

Note: The current affiliation of the Principal Investigator (Esra Aydın) is Gumushane University. However, due to system limitations, the affiliation may still appear as "Ataturk University".

Inclusion Criteria:
