NCT ID NCT07698327

First seen Jul 13, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study investigates whether team-based simulation training helps first-year nursing students improve their communication, self-awareness, and teamwork skills compared to training alone. Over 100 students will participate in both team and individual simulations in a crossover design. Researchers will measure changes in attitudes toward teamwork, self-awareness, and communication clarity. The goal is to see if practicing together in realistic scenarios better prepares students for real clinical teams.
