Abstract | High-fidelity simulation provides students with realistic and immersive scenarios, allowing them to develop clinical skills and critical thinking. This study explored the usefulness of high-fidelity simulation on nursing students’ critical thinking disposition and clinical performance following the intervention. A quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing both controlled and experimental groups, each consisting of 30 students selected through purposive sampling. The study was conducted in a higher education institution in Ozamiz City, Philippines. The data were collected through a researcher-made Critical Thinking Disposition questionnaire while a documentary analysis for nursing students’ clinical performance. The data were analyzed using frequency, weighted mean, standard deviation, and t-test. Nursing students in both the control and experimental groups exhibited a strong critical thinking disposition. However, they differ in terms of open-mindedness, inquisitiveness, and analytical thinking. Most of the participants in the control group received a fair rating, whereas approximately half of the experimental group attained a satisfactory level of clinical performance. No notable gap in clinical performance was observed among the participants in the control and experimental groups. Both groups consistently demonstrated high levels of critical disposition, indicating a shared proficiency in critical thinking skills. Although there was a significant difference in participants’ open-mindedness, inquisitiveness, and analytical thinking between the groups, no substantial distinction was observed in reflectiveness. The varying levels of clinical performance suggest potential disparities in the efficacy of instructional approaches or intervention, though there were no discernable differences in clinical performance between the control and experimental groups. Nursing educators may develop laboratory activities centered on real-life scenarios and problem-solving to enhance students’ critical thinking, while future researchers could focus on evaluating clinical skills independently rather than of the overall grades, which are often influenced by exams, quizzes, and students’ attitudes. |
