The Effect of Simulation-Based Postmortem Care on Nursing Students' Knowledge, Skills, and Self-Efficacy Levels

PURPOSE AND TYPE OF THE RESEARCH This study is designed as a randomized controlled experimental study to investigate the impact of simulation-based learning experiences in the teaching of postmortem care on the knowledge, skills, and self-efficacy levels of nursing students. RESEARCH HYPOTHESES Hypothesis 1 (H1): The postmortem care knowledge levels of students who experience simulation-based learning are higher compared to those taught through traditional methods. Hypothesis 2 (H2): The postmortem care skill levels of students who experience simulation-based learning are higher compared to those taught through traditional methods. Hypothesis 3 (H3): The self-efficacy levels of students who experience simulation-based learning in end-of-life and postmortem care are higher compared to those taught through traditional methods. Additionally, it is anticipated that students who undergo simulation-based learning experiences will exhibit higher levels of student satisfaction and confidence in their learning process within this study.
