Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of case-based learning (CBL) on clinical decision making and nursing performance. Methods: This research was conducted between September, 2011 and January, 2012 as a nonequivalent comparison group design. The participants were 55 third year nursing students who were enrolled in a college of nursing in a university in Korea. The intervention was the CBL procedures which involved role-play practice videoed by camera and watched on the computer by the students. Questionnaires were used before and after the intervention to measure clinical decision-making. Nursing performance tests were done after the intervention. Results: Statistically significant group differences were observed in clinical decision-making. Nursing performance was significantly higher in the CBL group than in the control group. Conclusion: CBL focused on the solving problem process and clinical cases which are based on clinical setting allowing students to develop efficiency in clinical practice and adaptation to the clinical situation.
