Before the simulation scenario, there were insecurity, uncertainty, and cultural differences between the nursing students, with the main worry being the language barrier.

After finishing the simulation, they showed positive aspects, aspects to be improved, learning acquired, and learning to be strengthened, highlighting the existing cultural differences and asking for training on cultural competence

Quasi-experimental study

An educational intervention among 40 nursing students in Spain based on the use of positive references in order to improve the students' attitude to- wards gypsy women receiving health care

The Stereotype Content Model, the perception of the outgroup, and the stereotypes regarding the Roma population as “trustworthy” all improved showing a statistically significant difference between the periods (pre and post-educational intervention)
