Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the effects of simulation-based training on knowledge, self-efficacy and clinical performance, underwent before or after the clinical practice for the nursing students. Method: A comparison group design was established with pre-clinical practice group (n=34) and post-clinical practice group (n=34). Both groups participated in simulation-based training before or after the clinical practice at the recovery room. Chi-square test, t-test and paired t-test were performed to analyze the data. Results: Both groups showed significantly higher post-test scores in knowledge and self-efficacy than pre-test scores (p<.001). The group with simulation training performed before their clinical practice (pre-clinical practice group) showed significantly higher self-efficacy (p=.044) than the group with simulation training done after their clinical practice (post-clinical practice group). However, there was no significant difference in the knowledge (p=.922) and clinical performance (p=.887). Conclusion: These findings of the study suggest that simulation based training in pre-clinical practice is effective to enhance the self-efficacy and to improve knowledge and clinical performance of the nursing students.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of the nursing practice environment and self-leadership on person-centered care provided by oncology nurses. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 145 nurses who worked in oncology wards at eight university hospitals in Seoul, Daejeon, and Chungcheong Province with at least six months of experience. Data were collected using a self-administered survey and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients, the t-test, analysis of variance, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis in SPSS version 26.0. Results: Person-centered care was significantly correlated with the nursing practice environment (r=0.27, P<0.001) and self-leadership (r=0.40, P<0.001), and the nursing practice environment was correlated with self-leadership (r=0.380, P<0.001). Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that the nursing practice environment was a significant predictor of person-centered care (β=0.31, P<0.001), after adjusting for covariates including monthly salary, total clinical career, and the position of oncology nurses. Self-leadership was a significant predictor of person-centered care (β=0.34, P<0.001) after controlling for the nursing practice environment, along with covariates. The final model explained 18.7% of the variance in personcentered care. Conclusion: Our findings emphasize the importance of the nursing practice environment and nurses' self-leadership for providing person-centered care in oncology care units. Educational programs to reinforce nurses' self-leadership and administrative support for nursing practice are necessary to improve oncology nurses' capability to provide person-centered care.
