Simulationists Guide To: Understanding Student Stress in Simulation
In our season 4 Episode 3 conversation, Megan and Amy delve into the long-awaited research comparing cortisol levels in students with mannequin-based simulations and with standardized patient interactions in nursing education.
They discuss the journey of their research, initial findings on student stress levels during simulations, and the collaboration with Johns Hopkins University.
They emphasize the importance of simulation fidelity, the role of standardized patients, and the need for investment in simulation education to improve student outcomes. The discussion also highlights the gap between simulation training and clinical practice, advocating for a more integrated approach to nursing education.
