Brief Summary:
This randomized controlled experimental study aimed to determine the effect of gamification-based virtual reality applications and video demonstration methods on nursing students skill learning and confidence levels in subcutaneous injection skill training
The population of the study consisted of 96 first-year nursing students enrolled in the Fundamentals of Nursing course at a universitys Faculty of Nursing during the spring semester of the 2024-2025 academic year The students will be randomized into three groups each containing 32 students two experimental groups and one control group First the topic of subcutaneous injection application will be theoretically explained to all students for 90 minutes After completing the theoretical explanation the skill of subcutaneous injection application will be taught in a laboratory setting using the Gamification-Based Virtual Reality Application Demonstration method for students in Experimental Group 1 the Video Demonstration Demonstration method for students in Experimental Group 2 and only the Demonstration method for students in the Control Group After the theoretical explanation and laboratory practices according to their groups the subcutaneous injection skill levels of the students in all three groups will first be assessed in the laboratory setting using the Objective Structured Clinical Examination OSCE and later evaluated in the clinical setting using the Subcutaneous Injection Skill Checklist The confidence levels of the students will be determined through self-reporting using the Confidence Scale after all clinical practices are completed
The research data will be collected between April and June 2025 Descriptive number percentage mean standard deviation minimum-maximum and comparative statistics Chi-Square Test Mann Whitney U Test Wilcoxon Test will be used in the analysis of the data The level of statistically significance will be considered at p005

Detailed Description:
Nursing education is a structured educational system designed to impart a professional nursing identity to students and prepare them for professional life This system integrates theoretical and practical education as a whole It aims to develop cognitive affective and psychomotor skills as well as critical thinking decision-making and problem-solving abilities
The primary objective is to determine the most effective learning method by comparing two different methods in teaching the subcutaneous injection skill one of the most frequently encountered invasive procedures in clinical practice The secondary objective is to assess the impact of the applied learning methods on students confidence levels Additionally it aims to demonstrate the usability and effectiveness of these methods in nursing skill education
The population of the research will consist of first-year nursing students N280 enrolled in the Fundamentals of Nursing course at the Faculty of Nursing of a university in the spring semester of the 2024-2025 academic yearThe G Power-3192 program was used to estimate the appropriate number of students needed for a study sample It was found through power analysis that a sample size of 96 students p005 significance provided an 88 theoretical power with 95 confidence and 030 effect size The students to be sampled will be randomly selected from the population using the simple random sampling method considering a random number table and will be equally divided into Experiment-1 n32 Experiment-2 n32 and Control n32 groups
The subject of subcutaneous injection which is planned to be taught within the scope of the research will be explained theoretically to all students face-to-face in the classroom environment for 2 class hours 90 min and then the students will be made to practice the skill on low-reality models in the laboratory for 4 class hours 180 min In the laboratory subcutaneous injection skill will be shown to all students by the researchers by demonstration method and students will be ensured to repeat the application until they learn the skill
Student Information Form SC Injection Skill Checklist Self-Confidence Scale will be used in collecting research data
Student Information Form It consists of 8 questions characteristics of the students such as age gender graduated high school city of residence for the longest time desire for nursing profession and reason for choosing the profession technology usage status
SC Injection Skill Checklist The form prepared by the researchers in line with the literature information was prepared to measure the skill levels of the students regarding SC injection The prepared form will be sent to 3 faculty members who are experts in the field of Fundamentals of Nursing and who have studies on SC injection and expert opinion will be obtained before the start of the study to be evaluated for suitability The form consisting of 27 items in which each application step is scored shows the skill level as a score
Self-confidence Scale SCS Self-confidence scale developed by Akın 2007 by adopting self-efficacy theory within the scope of Banduras social-cognitive theory consists of 33 items collected under two factors as internal self-confidence and external self-confidence In the self-report and 5-point Likert-type scale 17 items collected under the internal self-confidence factor are mostly related to individuals self-confidence towards themselves while the external self-confidence dimension consisting of 16 items is related to individuals self-confidence towards their external environment and social life The internal consistency reliability coefficients of the scale are 091 for the whole scale 083 for the internal self-confidence dimension and 085 for the external self-confidence dimension
After the theoretical and laboratory applications are completed according to their respective groups the skill learning levels of students in all three groups will be evaluated by Objective Structured Clinical Examination OSCE in laboratory and Subcutaneous Injection Skill Checklist in clinics of the University Hospital
Finally in the last week of the clinical application the confidence levels of students in all three groups will be evaluated using the Confidence Scale
Statistical Analysis of Data The data obtained from the research will be analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistical Package for Social Science 250 software Descriptive statistics number percentage mean standard deviation minimum-maximum and comparative statistics Chi-Square Test Mann Whitney U Test Wilcoxon Test will be used in the analysis of the data A p-value of less than 005 will be considered statistically significant
