Development and Implementation Haptic VR Simulation

Development and Implementation of a Multi-Skill, Haptic-Supported Virtual Reality Simulation for Nursing Students

The goal of this experimental study is to increase objectivity in clinical decision-making and skill assessment of nursing students by using haptic-assisted virtual reality simulation, unlike imported products used in nursing education.

Hypotheses:

H1: There is a difference between the total psychomotor skill levels of the intervention and control group students in all relevant skill applications.

H2: There is a difference between the clinical decision-making score averages of the intervention and control group students.

Researchers will compare the effects of haptic-assisted virtual simulation training on psychomotor skill levels and clinical decision-making scores in the intervention and control groups.

Participants will:

• Students who have agreed to participate in the study,
• Students taking the Fundamentals of Nursing course for the first time,
• Students with no prior simulation experience

Inclusion Criteria:

• Students who have agreed to participate in the study,
• Students taking the Fundamentals of Nursing course for the first time,
• Students with no prior simulation experience

Exclusion Criteria:

• Students who do not meet the inclusion criteria,
• Students who do not complete the data collection forms in full,
• Students who are retaking the Fundamentals of Nursing course will be excluded from the study.
• Students who do not participate in the virtual reality application or laboratory application to be implemented during the study period, who are absent, or who wish to withdraw from the study will be excluded from the study during the follow-up period.
