The Influence of Gamification on Decision Making in Nursing Students
Background:
Gamification provides nursing students with a setting in which they can practice clinical reasoning and decision making in a realistic and secure way. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of gamification on decision making in nursing students.
Method:
A quasi-experimental study was performed with a control group and an experimental group. A convenience sample was used to select the participants. A total of 191 nursing students participated. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the groups.
Results:
On comparing the control group and experimental group, statistically significant differences were found in the following patterns: vigilance, buck passing, and procrastination.
Conclusion:
Using gamification as part of nursing education increases satisfaction, creative thinking, and control, among other aspects, with little to no negative effects throughout the experience, which has a significant impact on decision making. [J Nurs Educ. 2019;58(12):718-722.].
