Important questions remain around the increased use of simulation in nursing education and the development of caring competencies. An observational study of 105 nursing students was conducted to explore the caring behaviors demonstrated during simulations and to examine the affordances and limitations of the simulation milieu to support development of caring competencies. The McDaniel (1990) instrument was adapted for scoring caring behaviors. A majority of participants exhibited passive caring behaviors. Self-initiated and transpersonal caring behaviors occurred in low frequency. Caring is important to patient health, satisfaction, and quality healthcare. Recommendations to support development of caring behaviors in simulation are offered.

Simulation Scenario

This article examines the use of high-fidelity mannequins in simulation scenarios as used in nursing undergraduate education. Notwithstanding a lack of robust support in the research literature regarding outcomes, these mannequins have been broadly taken up by educators. Employing a form of posthuman inquiry, I explore how the use of high-fidelity mannequins may affect the student nurses’ relation with real living bodies, and therefore the people they eventually look after. Ways to mitigate the potential side-effects of the medium are offered, including a reframing of the simulation scenario.

Background and Purpose: Simulation fidelity includes three aspects: physical, conceptual, and psychological. This study reports on strengths and limitations of the Presence Questionnaire (PQ) for measurement of fidelity in human patient simulation. Methods: This nonexperimental correlational study includes a convenience sample of 83 undergraduate nursing students who participated in an emergency simulation and completed the PQ. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) on the 7-item PQ Realism subscale between groups who did or did not experience simulation equipment malfunction measured the PQ's sensitivity to this challenge to fidelity. Results: Students (n = 23) experiencing simulation equipment malfunction scored significantly lower on the PQ Realism subscale than students (n = 58) not experiencing equipment malfunction. Conclusions: The modified PQ Realism subscale is a valid measure of physical fidelity in nursing simulation and may advance the study and development of simulation for researchers and nursing educators.
