Abstract

This study was undertaken to determine effects of the child-woman health nursing convergence-based simulation practice program on the nursing student's the critical thinking, communication competency, learning flow, clinical judgment.

The data, self-reported questionnaires were given to 78 senior nursing students located in Cheonan city in Korea which were gathered during Mar. 2 to Aug. 31, 2018. The data were analyzed using paired t-test and correlation.

After the Child-Woman Health Nursing convergence-based simulation, it showed a significant difference in learning flow (t=-2.806, p<.05) and clinical judgment (t=-2.878, p<.05). A learning flow showed a positive correlation with communication competency and clinical judgment.
