About this study

Official title: Teaching the Social Determinants of Health to Nursing Students With Culturally Diverse Simulation: A Quasi Experimental Trial

The goal of this intervention study is to compare two different simulation modalities (standardized patient and manikin-based) in nursing student education. The main aim is to determine the effect of new scenarios on cultural awareness levels in two different types of simulation modalities and to determine the effect of new scenarios on social determinants of health knowledge levels in two different types of simulation modalities.

Participants will assign to two groups and will attend simulation sessions.

Read the detailed description

The simulation session will contain prebriefing, simulation, and debriefing. The participants will be assigned to the simulation session.

  • The first group will be the standardized patient group. They will ask to fill out the Cultural Awareness Scale and social determinants of health knowledge. Then, they will attend prebriefing, standardized patient simulation, and debriefing.
  • The second group will be the manikin-based group. They will ask to fill out the Cultural Awareness Scale and social determinants of health knowledge. Then, they will attend prebriefing, manikin-based simulation, and debriefing.
Being tested
Standardized patient simulation, Manikin-based simulation

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Standardized patient simulationBehavioural

    The standardized patient simulation participants will receive a simulation with standardized patients on how to identify social determinants of health in an individual

  • Manikin-based simulationBehavioural

    The manikin-based simulation participants will receive a simulation with manikins on how to identify social determinants of health in an individual

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline cultural awareness level on the 36 questions Cultural Awareness Scale

    The Cultural Awareness Scale is a validated, reliable, and self-reported instrument assessing cultural awareness levels. Each statement is graded from 1=Strongly Disagree to 7=Strongly Agree. While lower scores indicate less cultural awareness, higher scores indicate greater cultural awareness (minimum = 36, maximum = 252).

    Measured: Three hour

  2. Change from baseline social determinants knowledge on the 10 questions Social Determinants of Health Survey

    Social Determinants of Health Survey is a 10-question multiple-choice survey created by researchers by searching the literature. The number of responses to the answer choice is determined. The lower scores indicate fewer social determinants of health knowledge and higher scores indicate greater social determinants of health knowledge (minimum = 0, maximum = 10).

    Measured: Three hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Standardized patient simulation and Manikin-based simulation in people with Simulation of Physical Illness and Nurse's Role, run by University of Massachusetts, Boston at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline cultural awareness level on the 36 questions Cultural Awareness Scale (time frame: Three hour). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jan 2024.
