This study was performed to examine the effects of the peer mentoring learning-based program, named preclinical objective structured clinical examination (OSCE), on self-confidence on core basic nursing skills and critical thinking disposition of nursing students. A nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. The participants were 68 sophomore nursing students of a university in J province. The research period was conducted from February 2016 to February 2017. As a result, OSCE increased self-confidence on core basic nursing skills and critical thinking disposition, compared to the control group. Post self-confidence on core basic nursing skills had positive correlations with post critical thinking. Therefore, we suggest that based on this study findings, further research be done to compare and analyze effectiveness of various peer mentoring learning-based OSCE programs.

Purpose: The study was done to identify the effects of OSCE program prior to clinical practice for nursing students and to find out the weakest area of fundamental nursing skills. Methods: Study design was methodological triangulation. Qualitative analysis was done to derive nursing students' OSCE experiences using OSCE reflection note. Level of basic nursing skill acquirement was identified by quantitative method. Results: Four themes and 10 sub-categories emerged: (a) confidence and interests in nursing being increased, (b) being encouraged by mentor and evaluator, (c) requiring much effort to learn nursing skill, (d) being aware of themselves and understanding others in their shoes. Results of analysis of OSCE application score record showed as followings ; Intravenous injection(92.6%), Intramuscular injection(89.5%), Foley catheterization(85.2%), Vital sign(81.5%): BP check(63.0%) Respiration check(50.0%), Health assessment: respiration sound auscultation(33.3%) heart sound auscultation(44.4%). Conclusion: OSCE program application before frist clinical nursing practice was effective in terms of fundamental nursing skills learning. It is necessary to reinforce nursing skills based on the study results.

Recently, the medical education is undergoing system transition from a medical college to a medical graduate school and introduction of performance test in the doctor license state examination. Therefore, To deal with these challenges, it is needed that medical faculty prepare the education programs for considering student's personal characteristics and improving Clinical performance. So, The purpose of this study was to understand relation among Stress, ego-resilience, self-efficacy and Clinical performance in graduate medical student, and for this study, We conducted a survey of 97 medical graduate school students in D city during the period from August 19st to 20st. 2011. The study found a negative correlation between Stress and Ego-Resilience, a positive correlation of stress with confidence at low region in Self-Efficacy. Ego-Resilience correlates positively with CPX at low region in Clinical performance, Preference for difficulty level of the task at low region in Self-Efficacy correlates negatively with OSCE. OSCE and CPX at low region in Clinical performance are positively correlated. Therefore, Stress reduction of students can improve Self-Efficacy, Furthermore, improve ultimately Clinical performance. According to this study, To improve Clinical performance competence, student's personal characteristics should be considered and education programs for self-efficacy and ego-resilience advancement be reflected in curriculum.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to design a standardized questionnaire for patients with atopic dermatitis in oriental dermatology. Methods: We selected atopic dermatitis from the evaluation of students' satisfaction conducted by the Department of Oriental Dermatology, Dong-guk University College of Oriental Medicine in 2011. To design the questionnaire for atopic dermatitis, we made up descriptive materials consisting of history of the present illness, patient risk factors, past medical history, personal history, and physical examination. Results: Standardized patients (SP) were used in teaching and practicing interviewing and physical examination skills for students. The SP offers a readily available tool for teaching and evaluating the clinical performance and interpersonal skills of medical students. However, the SP program needs to be more thoroughly researched and developed. Research of pattern identification in atopic dermatitis is needed to design the questionnaire. Conclusions: Using an SP program is strongly recommended to teach and evaluate in oriental medicine clinical clerkships.

Purpose: This study was done to develop a scenario and evaluate student performance in simulation learning of care for children with respiratory distress syndrome in neonatal intensive care units. Methods: To test the application effect, a one group pre-test design was applied. The scenario based on actual patients and textbook material was developed through several meetings of experts. The scenario was used with 17 groups of 55 senior nursing students who participated voluntarily. Results: Contents were organized focusing on the nursing process for simulation learning. In the application of knowledge and skills, nursing students had high scores in the contents of observation of oxygen saturation, and care to relieve dyspnea. Participants' ability, especially in suction and oxygen supply in the evaluation of objective structured clinical examination was not adequate. There was a significant positive correlation between problem-solving ability and satisfaction in learning. Conclusion: The respiratory distress syndrome simulation scenario developed in this study was an effective tool to give students experience in problem solving and critical thinking ability under conditions similar to reality. The development of various scenarios for child nursing care is needed.
