Clinical virtual simulation: predictors of user acceptance in nursing education.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Using virtual patients integrated in simulators expands students' training opportunities in healthcare. However, little is known about the usability perceived by students and the factors/determinants that predict the acceptance and use of clinical virtual simulation in nursing education.

Objectives

To identify the factors/determinants that predict the acceptance and use of clinical virtual simulation in learning in nursing education.

Methods

Observational, cross-sectional, analytical study of the use of clinical virtual simulation in nursing to answer the research question: What factors/determinants predict the acceptance and use of a clinical virtual simulator in nursing education? We used a non-probabilistic sampling, more specifically a convenience sampl
