Background:
Effective presentation skills are essential for nursing students' professional development. This study evaluated the effects of an elective health care presentation course on communication skills, anxiety, self-efficacy, empathy, and health literacy.
Method:
A quasiexperimental design was used. Participants self-selected into either the intervention group (n = 49), enrolling in a two-credit health care presentation course, or the control group (n = 54). Generalized estimating equations were used to analyze the intervention effects.
Results:
The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements compared with the control group in communication competence (β = 9.13, p < .001), oral presentation evaluation (β = 14.36, p < .001), self-efficacy in presentation (β = 12.38, p < .001), empathy (β = 10.38, p = .002), and health literacy (β = 5.18, p < .001), and a reduction in communicative anxiety (β = -8.90, p < .001).
Conclusion:
A theory- and practice-based health care presentation course effectively improved nursing students' presentation-related skills. These findings suggest that integrating such courses into nursing curricula could better prepare students for professional communication in health care settings.
