    A systematic review of studies evaluating immersive virtual reality applications to support nursing education for nursing students

    Aydin, Aydanur; Güler, Sevil; Bulut, Hülya

    Objectives: Virtual reality (VR)-based interventions are widely used in education. However, it is necessary to systematically examine the outcomes of immersive virtual reality (IVR) applications in nursing education, clarifying their impact on knowledge, skills, and attitudes among nursing students. Methods: This review utilized the methodological framework of the Joanna Briggs Institute. A search was conducted of the Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), Web of Science, and Scopus databases for the period from 2013 to 2023. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol informed the review and screening of the literature. The articles were assessed for eligibility via first screening by abstract review, followed by a full-text review. The first two authors reviewed the articles, assessing qualification for inclusion and evaluating the content. Data from eligible articles were analyzed and synthesized to answer the research question. Results: Of the initial 667 articles, 11 articles met the inclusion criteria for final analysis. The findings indicate that IVR applications in clinical practice positively impact nursing students, as IVR provides effective results in increasing their knowledge. Nursing educators should avoid comparing the results of students’ IVR practice with classical clinical practice. Nursing students should continue to engage in clinical practice, as it remains an essential aspect of their education. While technological applications such as IVR may be useful, they should not be used as a substitute for clinical practice. This review highlights the reported outcomes and benefits of clinical teaching methods in nursing. Conclusion: A limited number of articles were found that evaluated the education of nursing students in IVR applications. The analyzed articles found that nurse educators experienced meaningful knowledge exchange with students after IVR implementation. Further research is needed to identify effective outcomes in clinical education. It is essential to advance science to transform clinical education and use it more consciously to teach practical thinking and decision-making about patient care.

    Objective This research aimed to adapt Positive Attitudes Toward and Perceived Importance of Wearable Display Technology (PATPIWDT) as an Effective Learning Tool Among Nursing Students into Turkish and to examine the validity and reliability of its translation.Methods This methodological study included 698 nursing students recruited via convenience sampling. Construct validity was evaluated using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) with the Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimation method. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's Alpha and McDonald's Omega coefficients.Results The model demonstrated excellent fit according to the confirmatory factor analysis results. The CFA results for the Positive Attitudes subscale indicated a good model fit (CMIN/DF = 4.79, GFI = 0.93, CFI = 0.97, RMSEA = 0.07, SRMR = 0.03). For the Perceived Importance subscale, the single-factor structure showed acceptable fit indices (CMIN/DF = 5.82, GFI = 0.98, SRMR = 0.03). As a result of examining the standardized loadings of the items, it was seen that the item factor loadings were 0.40 and above, indicating sufficient factor loading. Cronbach's alpha coefficients were 0.91 for the positive attitudes subscale and 0.84 for the perceived importance subscale. The respondents also demonstrated an above-average overall score, with a mean of 3.40 (SD = 0.69).Conclusion The Turkish version of the scale provides a dependable measure of nursing students' positive attitudes toward wearable screens and how important they consider this technology for future educational use.

    The aim of the study is to determine the awareness of the Turkish society in COVID-19, and determine the anxiety stress levels. Research two months after the start of the outbreak in Turkey has reached 2163 individuals completed the online platform. The Integrated Anxiety Stress Scale significantly changed according to age, gender, marital status and working status after the pandemic. According to the results of multiple binary logistic regression analysis, individuals aged 50 and over, female gender, being single and not working after the pandemic for anxiety; female gender, being married, and post-pandemic study were found to be risk factors for Covid awareness. It is recommended that epidemic awareness studies and information sharing on controlled healing measures are planned considering the anxiety levels.
