---|---|---|
Section 1 |  |  |
Demographic questionnaire | Age, Gender, Cumulative GPA, Maternity-Newborn Nursing and Midwifery lecture grade, SBL experience | N/A |
Attitude scale toward simulation-based education (SBE) | 18 items, 5-point Likert scales ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), range 18–90, a higher score indicating a high level of attitude toward SBE. Demonstrated reliability and validity [17]. | 0.708 |
Professional identity scale for nursing students | 17 items, 5-point Likert scales ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), range 17–85, a higher score indicating a high level of positive perception of professional identity. Demonstrated reliability and validity [27]. | 0.876 |
Section 2 |  |  |
Perceived stress scale | 10 items, 5-point Likert scales ranging from 0 (almost never) to 5 (almost always), range 0–50. 1–13 scores indicate a low level of stress, 14–26 indicate a mild level of stress, and 27–40 scores indicate a high level of stress. Demonstrated reliability and validity [28, 29]. | 0.853 |
Evaluation of teaching competencies scale | 9 items, 3-point Likert scales ranging from 1 (disagree) to 3 (agree), range 9–27, a higher score indicating a high level of positive perception of teaching competencies. Demonstrated reliability and validity [30]. | 0.882 |
Simulation Design Scale: student version | Two parts of the questionnaires were attitude toward simulation design (19 items) and perceived important design (19 items), 5-point Likert scales ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), range of 19–95 for each part, a higher score indicating participants perceived the design of ANC simulation with a high degree of suitability and importance. Demonstrated reliability and validity [31]. | 0.969, 0.977 |
Section 3 |  |  |
Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning | Two parts of the questionnaires were satisfaction (5 items) and self-confidence (8 items), 5-point Likert scales ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), and satisfaction and self-confidence range 5–25 and 8–40, respectively. A higher score indicates that participants were highly satisfied /self-confident with simulation-based learning. Demonstrated reliability and validity [31]. | 0.883, 0.925 |
