Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Students agreed that the objectives of the simulation were clear (m = 4.14, SD = 0.59) and that it was appropriate to their level (m = 4.09, SD = 0.79), while fidelity items received the lowest agreement. → ALFozan et al. 2015

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Post-rotation questionnaire study of 64 maternity nursing students using Jeffries' (2005) 20-item five-point Likert perception scale across five categories. Students agreed there was "enough information provided at the beginning of simulation"; fidelity items drew the least agreement, with only 75% agreeing the scenario resembled a real-life situation.
"Participants expressed positive perception toward the simulation-based sessions. Regarding objective and information 92.2% of the students agreed that there was enough information provided at the beginning of simulation (M = 4.08, S D = 0.7o)"
Discussion¶

- Students taught with preclinical simulation achieved higher final course grades than the previous cohort taught without simulation (87.79 vs 83.07, p = 0.000) — related
