ABSTRACT

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the nursing students’ experiences on a simulation based integrated practicum using a text network analysis. Methods: The data were collected from 103 questionnaires submitted by senior students who took the simulation based integrated nursing practicum course in a college of nursing during spring semester 2018. NetMiner 4.3. was used for the text network analysis. After data cleaning, frequency, degree/betweenness centrality, and subgroup analysis were used for the final analysis. Results: Situation, Patient, Skills, Coping, and Reality were the words with high frequency and centrality in practicum experience among nursing students. Comparing visualized sub-networks groups with course outcomes, ‘the collaboration with health professionals(CO4)’ were not explained by any sub-groups. Embarrassment and Mistake were the high frequency words in the analysis for negative experience. Conclusion: The results identified positive and negative experience, and the unachieved course outcomes from nursing students’ experience of simulation practicum. The results could be used for improving the quality of simulation based integrated nursing practicum.
