Abstract
Background
There is a gap in the literature exploring individual students' psychological intrinsic factors and how these factors influence psychological safety in simulation among nursing students with diverse cultural backgrounds. The aim of this study was to explore the associations between psychological safety in simulation and students’ individual psychological intrinsic factors, including self-compassion, anxiety sensitivity, and resilience.
Methods
This study was the first part of a multicultural comparison study on satisfaction and psychological safety in simulation, and a comparison of intrinsic characteristics between nursing students in South Korea and the United States, using a descriptive, exploratory, and correlational design. An online survey was used to measure the study variables for 186 Korean students. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and linear mixed models to examine factors associated with psychological safety.
Results
All the psychological intrinsic factors (self-compassion, anxiety sensitivity, and resilience) were significantly associated with psychological safety, after controlling the demographic characteristics. Higher psychological safety was associated with higher self-compassion (p = .014), lower anxiety sensitivity (p < .001), and higher resilience (p = .018).
Conclusion
Psychological safety in simulation is influenced by students’ psychological intrinsic factors. Efforts to recognize anxiety sensitivity, students’ self-compassion and resilience would be essential to provide a psychologically safe educational environment for nursing.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
