Adaptive Gamification in Obstetric Nursing
Sponsor: Servicio Canario de Salud
Summary
This pilot study, conducted at the University of Atlántico Medio, seeks to transform the training of future nurses through a "Precision Education" model, moving away from generic simulations to focus on learning adapted to the student's individual profile. Through a clinical trial with 38 second-year students, the research evaluates whether using Artificial Intelligence to personalize educational narratives (gamification) according to the student's personality enhances academic performance in obstetrics (pregnancy and childbirth). The ultimate goal is to demonstrate that adapting teaching to each student's psychological characteristics is not only a sustainable strategy but also produces better-prepared professionals with higher knowledge retention, directly translating into safer and higher-quality care for patients and their families.

Adapted Gamified
The Experimental Group receives a personalized experience generated by AI and adjusted to five personality profiles (PPDS scale). This adaptation transforms the learning "wrapper" by offering specific narrative tones (such as heroic, humorous, or empathetic), differentiated visual aesthetics, feedback styles adjusted to the student's motivation, and exclusive side missions (such as puzzles or speed challenges), which are accessed via specific codes according to their role.
Generic Gamified
The primary distinction between the two groups lies exclusively in the adaptation of the narrative and gamification elements, given that the clinical content, learning objectives, and difficulty remain invariant to ensure academic validity. The Control Group interacts with a linear and generic narrative characterized by a neutral academic tone, standard medical aesthetics, and conventional feedback without additional missions
